Turkeygirl Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I feel blessed that I had today off from work, looks a bit icy outside. Alot of schools closed. But as I sit here, blowing my snuffy nose from this stupid cold, it really is not as bad as the weather people were predicting. In my area anyway. Sometimes they over exaggerate a little bit,lol. How did the rest of you get hit by the storm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbeck Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Not bad here Ruth, we had enough warning this was coming so they got a lot of salt on the roads yesterday. I plowed the little bit of snow we had yesterday then hit the drive with some salt so I was in good shape as well. we only got about a 1/4" of ice so the power stayed on most places. Hope you feel better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Windy and colder here. Was not supposed to be any precip here, but got some light flurry activity going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 They had our forecast at 1/2" of freezing rain and 8-12" of snow between Monday night and today. Turned out that we got about 1/4" of freezing rain, an inch of sleet, and about an inch of snow. Kind of a bummer for someone that really likes the white stuff.

woolybear Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Just enough wet stuff to put a crust on top of a couple feet of white stuff. Made the roads and sidewalks nice and greasy now that it's getting colder. Not too bad though. Typical weather for the snowbelts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 not too bad really.... ...already posted it in another thread about the snow, but yea still a great picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Almost entirely an ice event for us. Got a 1/4" of ice Monday night into Tuesday, then nothing, then around 7 last night the ice started up again, probably got another quarter to half inch of ice overnight, but temps warmed up above freezing and knocked all the ice off. Lots of wind last night, lost power around 10, came back on an hour later, but lost it again at some point last night. (we have a generator, so I didn't even know power was out until I got up). Primary power came back on around 9 this morning, and now it's snowing and blowing, although the sun is trying its best to poke through. Pretty wild event. 2 days off from school.

Jeramie Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Record snowfall for Oklahoma. North of Tulsa got 20" in just over 24 hours. We ended up with about 16" - 16.5" im guessing (havent been out to measure yet) with 3/4" of a sleet layer. But then again youve probably seen my other post.

MCH Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 We got absolutely nothing. It's colder than I think it's ever been in a while and supposed to get colder tonight. But as far as snow and ice, we lucked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Been snowing almost all day so far, yet we are only supposed to get "a dusting." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nut Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 It was not as bad as the predictions at first. I still have the day off work and we are at a level 3 still. So I really do not know what it is like around here LOL. I guess between me and work it is worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 We got a good amount last night. Here is what we had to clean off of the driveway this morning: It just stopped snowing a little bit ago....Going to have to go out and clean up the 2 or so inches we got after we cleaned this morning.

HuntingPA Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Just enough wet stuff to put a crust on top of a couple feet of white stuff. Made the roads and sidewalks nice and greasy now that it's getting colder. Not too bad though. Typical weather for the snowbelts. Same in NW PA snowbelt....but we only got about 16" of crusted stuff. No school here today and it sounds like my wife and kids spent some time outside clearing the stuff away from the house, now I just got to get from here to back there tonight and this "storm of all storms" is about wrapped up.

Shaun_300 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Still snowing here, we only got 8 inches or so though, southern Ontario got quite a bit more than we did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETMGROW Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Snowed some last night, maybe a few inches. Got up at 5 am and cleaned the driveway because they predicted the storm of all storms. Got home tonight and could see tractor tracks from this AM's cleaning. Waste of good diesel fuel!

Tominator Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Finally over here. Lots of schools, including me, already called off for tomorrow. Lots of ice still, lots of power still out up north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Washi Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Depending on what channel you watch we got at least 15" of snow. Have heard as high as 20". Only one vehicle has been able to make it to our house. A big front wheel assist tractor and they had to drive in the field beside the road. The road itself is completely impassible because the snow drifted real bad. My brother in law said there is a couple spots in our road that have about 18' of snow. I think he is exaggerating a little but I bet he isn't that far off. It will be a while before we our road gets cleared. Now it's just windy and cold. Supposed to hit -10F tonight.

Now that I think about it I bet he said 8-10'. We have had ones that deep before with less snow many years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
