Gravity wave.

It baffles me that the NWS and FAA, after all these years, has failed to harmonize their procedures for snow measurements and the responsibility remains so inconsistent between WFOs / reporting sites.

From your perspective, which loss hurt the worst? Last year's NFCCG or last night's Divisional game?

It did finally pick up towards the end.

Lions at least had a good excuse for choking hard though. Their entire defensive line was being held up by glue & popsicle sticks with all the injuries. It's amazing they made it as far as they did.

Final snow totals from last storm...

06z HRRR and 03z RAP are bangers for DFW (especially the Northern Suburbs, as thermals/precip type is more borderline for Dallas/Tarrant Counties) and very similar to the EURO. And there's still a ton of precip to go beyond the end of these runs too...

Meanwhile, at first glance, 18z NAM is looking notably cooler...

FWD is now only calling for 1-3" in the Metroplex with mixed precipitation, in their update that just came out...

Still concerned that even the bullish GGEM/EURO are predominately a sleet fest (and the snow maps aren't accounting for that). No redeeming qualities what so ever for that outcome either.

It was a no-win situation for them. NWS, as standard practice, has to issue a Watch when we're no less than 48 hours away from the start of an event. This is to ensure sufficient notice is given to the general public to allow for storm preparation. The guidance, as of last night at least, was still somewhat supportive of potential for warning criteria snowfall to being met (and in fairness, it's a low bar at 3"). My bigger bone to pick though is how the model verification will seemingly be so poor within 3-4 days.

Not just no snow, but no precipitation what so ever (which I'd be good with over a cold rain or ice).

Just put me out of my misery now....

Will be a pretty monumental fail for the EURO if it ends up wrong and caving to these other models. "Grandma not mad. Grandma just hurt."

Over 15" for the Northern and Western suburbs... And a crippling Ice Storm just south of the Metroplex...
