When I started posting potential for my Newsletter on Thursday, a 4 model blend was 4.5". Yesterday it went to 6.8". This morning 7.7". Now 8.3" Kuchera is 11.2.
At 48 hrs., Monday 12z will pass judgment.
Wednesday/Thursday has a lot of potential.
We can't know at this time whether this will be a trace-1 inch or 10 -20 inches. Speculation will provide no answers. Many factors will create the ultimate solution.
We should have a better handle by perhaps Monday.
The dead Euro is cramping my late afternoon 4 model blend. Guess I'll have to use 6z.
I was hoping to get my ice threat tonight down a few notches below .27"
My greatest fear for tonight is white pine limbs already laden with snow from yesterday. Longer limbs wont take a lot of additional weight before they begin to snap.
I lost about a dozen last week.
8" with several reports of 9/10 within 10 miles.
For tonight, I tossed the NAM 3k which unreasonably depicts .80 zr to 0 zr within 10 miles.
A 4 model blend of .23 zr seems reasonable. I expect mostly on elevated surfaces.
32 degrees at noon.
At 5 am the NWS posted a rather stupid WSW for my area of 4 - 6 inches when the models were at 8 inches.
My forecast is 6 - 12.
I fully expected the NWS to wake up and they did at 3 pm, raising from 4 - 6 to 5- 10.
