  1. Excellent, that would be just what we all need lol.
  2. Yeah it's been nice finally having something to track.
  3. Hopefully we can get a system to track sometime soon that has a snow band that's wider than 50 miles. This sub desperately needs a share the wealth system.
  4. Nightmare scenario for this area. Narrow miss just northwest tonight, and mostly a miss southeast tomorrow. EDIT: GFS basically shows the same.
  5. 0.56" rain so far. Temp has been holding at 32 for awhile now. Just stepped outside, very little glazing at ground level. Only some minor glazing in the trees, etc. Still sleetless.
  6. Looking at the 3km NAM, I'm not a big fan of the big wall of convection from the gulf up to Indiana tomorrow, with the deformation zone sort of detached and hanging back to the west. Hoping the models aren't overdoing the 2nd wave, as it looks like it may be quite moisture starved. Think we've seen this sort of scenario before where the detached deformation zone really underperforms. Hope that isn't the case with this system..
  7. That's good. Sounds like you guys will be going over to snow soon.
  8. Pretty marginal conditions, with the temp still hovering at 32. Don't think the glazing will be very efficient unless the temp drops a few more degrees. High rates are slowing it down as well. I'm actually not worried at all about losing power, etc. New triple R shows about 1/4" precip falling as all snow after 22z tomorrow for here/QC. Looks like most of the snow will fall after dark per usual.
  9. Yeah been freezing for a little while now. No sleet yet.
  10. Moderate rain and 33 here. Temp has dropped about 4 degrees in the past few hours.
  11. That RAP run was a beaut Clark. Let's lock it in.
  12. First call from last evening still looking on track. Regular rain may hold on a bit longer than how it looked last eve, but should still get a good period of sleet/freezing rain. 2-5" snow call still looks okay. Yesterday's near 60 degree warmth is a distant memory.
  13. I guess it wouldn't be as exciting if we didn't have all this model madness up until 6hrs before the onset of the storm.
  14. 16 consecutive hours of sleet here with that lol. Hawkeye buried in snow.
  15. From a snow perspective, I just want to see at least a brief period of rippage before the sun sets later Saturday. Would love a warning criteria snow event, but that isn't in the cards with this 1-2 punch system. If we can get an inch or two of sleet, and then add an inch or two of snow then that would make it look pretty wintry to be sure.
  16. This is gonna be a sleet storm for the ages for the QCA.
  17. Almost 60 today as it hit 58 at MLI. Without technology an icestorm would not be something you'd expect in 24-30hrs.
  18. Didn't here, but there were numerous reports of outages around the area. Luckily only had 0.2" of glazing due to temps near freezing during the event. If it had been a few degrees colder it would have been very bad considering the 50mph winds that hit after the event.
  19. Point has 7" of snow here/QC, but to me it looks like sleet/freezing rain will be the dominant type till about sunset late Sat. Gonna take some serious rippage with that tail end snow to get to 7". I'll go with 2-5" snow as a first call, with a lot of sleet/freezing rain before that.
  20. Yeah and then you have low 20s just north over the northern half of lower-Michigan. Pretty impressive.
  21. Euro would be a major sleet/freezing rain storm here, with perhaps a few inches of snow at the end. After such a long and dull period of weather I could get down with a good sleet storm.
  22. Kind of feel the same about this area. Tomorrow's runs will be fun to watch come in.
