Yes, so long as it's cold enough to stick :spam:


Don't you know the sun angle right now is about the same as on Halloween?

I am getting a bit more hopeful....cautiously. But the windows are open and the bright backyard floodlight is on, apologies to the neighbors. It's looking really good on radar so far. Maybe could squeeze out .25 to .5 out of this if it can last an hour.

Very light snow falling. Hopefully a start to something much bigger.

Yeah it’s snowing quite a bit. Tiny flakes though. Not like the big fat ones from earlier.

Trying to explain to my family that just because the high is only 25, doesn’t mean there won’t be melting.

It's here, definitely better than the tiny flurries from the afternoon. No big fat flakes yet, but the core isn't here yet.

Yes. I think that’s what’s happening to my current snowflakes.

Better snow now, think the heaviest part is here, so definitely light to moderate snow, hard to see at night even with the floodlight.

Edit: flakes getting bigger/easier to see, yay!

I will take it.

I am officially measured at 8-10 inches of snow plus combined sleet total of around .5 inch, it was super difficult to properly measure the snow since the amount of compacting by sleet and the snow drifts

I'm surprised Tulsa got to 8.7. There was a big push at the end clearly and I think it actually edged out the other two big storms I've seen since I moved here in 2021

It really was a solid storm for us if you look at the overall picture

Oh and we're gonna make a run for below zero tonight because there's still snow everywhere. That's pretty impressive

Good luck on the snow down there tonight

Yeah, tbh, I don’t quite understand that either.

Okay, even by my Kansas standards, the snow is coming down right now. Decent-sized flakes. If only we had another 3-4 hours of this. It may add .25 or so on top.

Thank goodness we got this at least.

That’s a fake. Lool how the background moves differently than the foreground… and they’re different resolutions.

Getting a good dusting on top of the ice rink. Pretty clear fluff you can kick around.
