Still a non event in the tri cities. Moderate snow with small flakes hasn't accumulated at all in the past two hours. Still sitting at 2.5cm on the day.

Roads are wet again with a small coating of snow on driveways and sidewalks.

Flakes have gotten bigger in size in the past few minutes. Maybe the snow will decide to start accumulating again soon.

It is wet snow but it’s still snow and the houses,trees, and side streets are covered. So not a bust for me at all. I’m just impressed it’s been snowing all day so far and still going. ;)
measured on my outside table and going old school here because it's what I had, there is just shy of 2 inches of wet snow on that table. surprised me when I saw the number, double checked and as you can see it was still just shy of the 2 inch mark on the ruler.

just for the record it was nicer going out in bare feet with the last snow fall, barely felt it then because it was dry, this time my feet were cold! :icecu: :brrr:

Intensity is definitely picking up now. Once we lose daytime heating, things could get interesting fast.

Would be quite ironic if it started to rain once we begin losing light this evening. :lol:

The more it's snowing, the less snow there is on the ground...

1.9°
Have about 5cm, I've been stuck between 4-5 cm for the last couple hrs even with the steady snowfall. Flakes have just doubled in size,maybe I'll start gaining again. :problem:
