Tulsa received 3.3 inches before yesterday, then another 0.4 of an inch Tuesday.

My fellow weather blogger Jerry Wofford said that means that Richard Hart is winning the snow contest with his guess of 3.7 inches.

Will it snow more? Nothing is currently in the next week's forecast (you can check updated local forecasts at any time at tulsaworld.com/weather).
