CentralNebWeather Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Hastings says most in the Highway 6 to I80 corridor got 4-5” as of 7 am. That would be my guess looking outside. We slept in a little longer this morning than normal so were just getting up. Need coffee. It is 1 degree with a wind chill of -20. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralNebWeather Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Just went out to move snow. Frigid. It’s been a long time since I’ve been this cold. A 20 mph east wind hits you in the face. I would say 4” for sure from my measurements, though it wouldn’t surprise me if someone got 5”. Wind again has drifted enough that accurate amounts are a little tricky. It’s been a decades since we’ve had this much snow on the ground. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 NWS North Platte has has 13.1” since Friday. Conservative for me is 10”. Models were pretty good. ICON again sniffed it out days ago and GFS was also good. Got to give credit. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 I went out earlier this morning around 7:30am to go shovel the driveway and the temp was -7F. I have to say, that is probably the coldest air temp where I had to go venture out and shovel. It didn't take me long bc we only had about 1" but it is an experience I won't forget. Once I finished, I ventured out around my neighborhood to soak it all in. I love hearing the "crunch" sound from the snow as it is a reminder of how cold it is outside. It looks and feels like the Arctic Tundra out there. I absolutely love this type of weather. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I am thinking we will pick up another 2” or so from this system in Omaha, so we will probably end up on the lower end of the forecast. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Wave 3 looks different on about every model I’ve looked at. Probably a 1-3” event for someone. Might be a nowcast, look at the radar, where a band may set up. Some models show virtually nothing. Any of the above could be accurate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmahaSnowFan Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Eyeballing it, looks like maybe an inch after the 2-4” called for. Can still see the driveway through the new layer of snow. Puts us at about 3.5” total for the two waves. Definitely an underperformer here. Made it down to -6.3 degrees last night about 1am before the clouds moved in and a breeze kicked in and started the temperatures warming back up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIKEKC Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 2 inches of snow here on the NE side of KC. Had around 1.3 yesterday and another good dusting this morning. Looks to be several more small disturbances to go as we finish today and start Monday. Maybe another 1-2 inches in KC before we get into possible some bigger snows later this week through early next week. BTW....NICE CALL TOM! I asked two weeks ago on the idea of winter weather making a run on KC and you said right around Feb. 5th. Boy did winter show up in a big way. I'm thankful for snow we have received but I sure would like to see those big piles that CentralNebweather is posting. What a lucky guy. SHARE SOME OF THE BIGGER SNOWS.....Please. Come on Chiefs! Let's do this! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstorm83 Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 It's getting harder to measure, but snow cover has to be approaching 15" at this point. 12"+ everywhere that didn't have grass showing (direct sunlight areas esp) before a few days ago. Just flurries now, might be able to get a few more tenths later on. I didn't think we'd be back to basically where we were on Jan 25th, but here we are. 3 1 1 Quote Snowfall in Lincoln, NE: 2017-18: 21.4" 2018-19: 55.5" 2019-20: 17.6" 2020-21: 49.4" 2021-22: 5.1" Average: 26" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow depth in my back yard is 12" and the top half is powder and the bottom half is solid ice! Just looks amazing; this year is turning out to be one of the best we have had in a long time. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like today's clipper was slightly further south than expected, but didn't make a huge difference here. KLNK will likely have 2 day total of 10" or so. Lincoln has been an ultimate snow magnet this year! I wouldn't be opposed to an Omaha bullseye with the next system to share some of the wealth. 5 Quote Snowfall in Lincoln, NE: 2017-18: 21.4" 2018-19: 55.5" 2019-20: 17.6" 2020-21: 49.4" 2021-22: 5.1" Average: 26" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a frozen layer below from previous storms and the big storm over a week ago. We have had approximately 10-11” since Friday. Of course some compaction from other storms. It is really impressive. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan1117 Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Only picked up 1.5" of snow from this morning's snowfall - so ended up lower than originally forecast... maybe we can tack on a bit more this afternoon but not too sure about that happening. Current snow depth in my backyard is around 8”. Even though the heaviest snow the last two days has been to our west and south, I am not going to complain one bit. Some of the snow piles along my driveway are as tall as I have seen them in the last 13 years of living in this house. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
