Could see 5-10 cm out of it, although the NAM is going high with 20 cm by Monday morning, while most other model guidance calling for a lot less. Regardless of how much snow falls, it will be turning windy and much colder Sunday night into Monday with gusty north winds giving blowing and drifting snow for the Monday morning commute as well as locally reduced vsbys. Monday morning drive will be a mess after a nice mild weekend. robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-47371343553759360662014-11-21T14:10:13.865-06:002014-11-21T14:10:13.865-06:00Anonymous.

I know you have referenced it in the past that is why I fell it is ok to ask about it. How do you access the weather radar on that site when you now have to go through "Tumblr" just to read the blog? Why would someone do this anyway? Hope you never do this. Really enjoy the radar from that website. Is there somewhere else I can access it? Thanks for your help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-51403089027221193582014-11-20T08:12:35.548-06:002014-11-20T08:12:35.548-06:00I see the snow fall for Sunday has been downgraded...I see the snow fall for Sunday has been downgraded to 2- 4 cm.

Official snowfall observations at Winnipeg airport stopped around 2005, ending a historical record of snowfall from our main observing site that started in 1872. The automated airport weather station now has a sonic snow sensor that measures snowdepth using sound waves, but it can be prone to errors as well as having problems with blowing and drifting snow. A human observer is still the best way of making accurate snowfall observations. I take snowfall measurements for Winnipeg from my home in Charleswood, and enter them every day in the EC climate archives as official snowfall readings, including daily snowfall and snow on ground measurements. It's not a substitute for airport snowfall, but at least we have something "official" for Winnipeg in the absence of official snowfall readings from our main airport observing site. Note that I also joined COCORAHS this year to also enter my snowfall readings on the COCORAHS site (my station ID is Winnipeg 9.6 WSW) COCORAHS is becoming an increasingly popular site to record and archive snowfall and rainfall data, with almost a dozen stations now reporting within the city of Winnipeg alone.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-69714681460714685342014-11-18T22:48:56.312-06:002014-11-18T22:48:56.312-06:00does Winnipeg have "official" snowcover ...does Winnipeg have "official" snowcover now?

Euro further south and east with it with less snow. We'll see how things trend over the next few days but it bears watching. robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01577519556216420480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33386160.post-12053882598438992672014-11-18T08:21:52.748-06:002014-11-18T08:21:52.748-06:00Hey Rob, possible snow storm Sunday & Monday?Hey Rob, possible snow storm Sunday & Monday?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
