Live look at this storm, and the season as a whole

Most of it is virga

No idea what to expect between the two waves out here. Range basically from nothing at all to 6"+ depending on which model you look at. No real trend one direction vs the other either

7.3" for the final total in IC

Sounds like dendrites/ratios where a big problem for a lot of people outside the primary axis of snowfall but out here we had good flakes for the majority of the day. I'll take measurements in a bit as snow continues to taper but I'd estimate at least 7-8" in Iowa City. The axis of heavier snowfall was a lot narrower than forecast of which the dry slot in IL is probably partly to blame, but elsewhere I gotta wonder if just poor lift/dry air in the DGZ causing ratios to not pan out the reason for underperforming.

Snow has already begun in IC. Almost 6 hours ahead of schedule

DVN saying 7-10" out here on the point and click. With temps in the teens, winds gusting to 25, and a mid day storm, you really cant draw up a better winter storm

Finally.

Real chance we go into february here with under 5" of seasonal snowfall and BA temp anomalies...

3" on the nose today. More than tripling my season total coming into today in Iowa City

NAM at 84 tends to be north so not putting a ton of stock in that. As others have said, not really gonna put money in this coming north until there's a marked trend of this system doing so.

I’m here to promote high quality discussion with fellow winter weather enthusiasts like me!!!!!

I just want to get pasted with the white stuff

Yea that system tuesday could drop some cement out here if things trend right. NAM/Euro anecdotally have seemed to handle these setups pretty well in the past and they're the ones showing snow this time so I guess we'll see.

I think this is probably the most likely outcome. AA for sure but I’m not convinced that we get crazy anomalies rainers for days tho
