This winter has been pretty weak so far. This last storm going to be any good?

The weather forecast is saying 6-9 inches of snow is possible so most likely we'll only get an inch or two.


Starting to get some spitting freezing rain in St Paris. Any snow/ice/freezing rain yet where you are?

Supposed to start in Akron around 6. I hope it is the last storm before spring. Cant wait until the weather breaks for good. I was in such a good mood with the sunshine earlier that I went on a run.

I've been ready for the "storm" since yesterday when they were calling for it to begin overnight last night.

As of right now, it has done nothing.


I personally don't give a shit what it does, as long as it doesn't prevent me from getting to OSU for a half hour tomorrow. Hoping to receive a job offer.

Well the low pressure is on track, but the snow bands look more north than originally anticipated. Still expect a cold March throughout folks

Winter forecasts are an absolute bitch, particularly these storms that aren't totally below freezing and you have all types of precip to contend with. If the damn storm tracks even just 10 miles off you can have cities get inches or feet of snow instead of a little rain. It's the most difficult forecast there is.

Just because the exact point where you are didn't get pounded doesn't mean it wasn't bad (see most of the Midwest right now). It's not acting like its the end of the world, it's making sure everyone in the path is aware that there are pockets in this storm dumping an assload of snow.

This is why I like severe weather so much more. Not only are snow storms more boring, something almost always goes wrong to hurt totals

Yep! And thats way you should say.. "We dont really know where this is going, but some of you will get more snow and some of you will get less." Stop with all the wild ass predictions!

We got the 6" that was forecast-maybe a little more. Was a nasty drive to work this morning-was an hour late-but my boss isn't even here yet.
