It's 9.27 pm here in Dayton, Ohio we have atleast 3 inches of snow on the ground. They are calling for possibly 4-6 inches of snow by 6 am on Friday. We are also supposed to get winds of 30 mph later on. Let it Snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Started snowing at 8:10 PM, and we are now up to 2" The temp is hoovering around 30*

[ohiostorm]

Close to 3" if not more. First heavy band through now awaiting the arrival of the next heavy band. Temp around 30 here as well.

[tomboudreau]

Another band is now starting now as I type and the intensity is slowly starting to pick up again. Its going to be fun to drive home at 2 AM.

Got another measurement at Findley Township, PA....3.5" temp holding in the upper 20's lower 30's.

Sylvania, Ohio ( northwest suburbs ) we've got 6 inches already and local met says at least 2-3 " more before sunrise. It's light snow, blowing and drifting is a problem, I live in Lucas County, we are under a Level 2 Snow Emergency. 6 inches in less than 5 hours time... yuck..... I am guessing my kids won't have school as there is icing occurring as well. I haven't been able to get warm all day.

Just went out to measure snow here... we now have around 4.5". Snow has tapered off now to just some flurries and occassional shower. We might pick up another inch or so overnight.

OhioStorm, I said yesterday: "I'd say you'll still see a pretty good snowfall, maybe three or four inches, five if you catch an hour burst of an one inch rates."

How close did that end up being to what you saw? This is my first year at looking at in-depth material to forecast my own snowfall for areas. I said I'd receive about 4.5 to 5 and we ended up with 4.2

[carve]

Really dissapointed here in newark,oh..we have about an 1 1/2 inches on the ground..can still see the grass.and they were calling for 4-6 inches..happens every time..i hope we get another storm soon..because this one was surely a bust.

[ohiostorm]

We ended up somwhere between 4.5 and 5 inches. Not bad for early December. We are now over a foot for the year.

[tomboudreau]

We ended up at 4.5 inches from this system.

[EFrancis]

Farther east in Gahanna (northeast Columbus) they got about 3.5 inches...and the airport, which is two miles from me, got only 2.2 but they always seem to come up short, so surprised they got that much.

[therock1811]

Wound up around 4" here. Not bad.
