Boy I picked a heck of a time to vacation away from the QCA lol. Hopefully get some consolation storms down here but always a bit unnerving being away from your home during a major severe setup.
-
A few flurries spitting out this morning. Temps will only make it to around 40 here, but will be near 60 down where we're heading later today.
-
Is COD having issues with their models? Was looking at the Euro on COD and it looks totally different compared to other sites. For example the H5 winds at 186hr from last night's run looks way different that Pivotal and WxBell. The COD site says it's the current run so what the heck?
-
I'll be down at Lake of the Ozarks Thu/Fri so no chasing for me with this. Will definitely be following it though as it looks pretty interesting. Nice to see a setup in the forecast.
-
Was nice to see some towering cumulus building up earlier this afternoon.
-
As Hawkeye pointed out in another thread 8-9" fell from this in a narrow stripe in western IA, and 5-6" fell as far east as near Waterloo.
-
Picked up a brief period of freezing rain this morning with little warm air advection wing. Some serious rippage out northwest of Des Moines. Carroll at 1/8 mile in heavy snow for a few obs now.
-
Over 7" of snow this morning and MLI still made it to near 50 late this afternoon.
-
Wow that late March sun is flexxin. Most of the snow is already toast here, and it didn't fully clear off until a few hours ago.
-
Both MLI and DVN had over 7". Finished with 3.3" here.
-
Not so much in this sub, but tomorrow's little wave coming out into IA looks very vigorous. Looks like there could be a narrow stripe of heavy snow from Omaha up through Des Moines. Wouldn't be surprised to see some big totals in a narrow swath there. Des Moines got 7-8" a few weeks ago when there wasn't even an advisory in effect, so it'd be pretty funny if that happened again. No headlines out there as of yet.
-
A 13 and 15 inch report now as well up in northwest IL. Probably legit too as this is about as easy of a snow as there is to measure.
-
That area there around Lowden/TIpton have been ground zero 3-4 times in the past month or so lol. They likely have well over 40" for the season in that little zone. Nice snow globe action here with the final/shriveling band sweeping back through. May make a run at 4".
-
3.3" here. DVN/MLI both over 5" as of an hour ago, so they'll likely pass 6". Heaviest snows stalled a bit northwest of here, but still a solid event here.
-
Sleet mixing in with the rain now, 34 degrees.
-
Cold rain and 35 here. Models average around an inch of precip here. Should switch over to snow by 2am and will probably rip for awhile.
-
In typical fashion the Euro slashed precip in the past few runs, just as the system nears. Went from 14"+ for the QC on kuchera down to under 8" now. The 00Z will cut it back to under 4", which will be correct. Boy that model really sucks ass now. What a shame.
-
Looks like a sloppy few inches here.
-
Lol at the Euro trolling the QC again. There was a time not so long ago when if the Euro showed your area getting 10"+ of snow in less than 60hrs you were probably golden.
-
Picked up 0.18" of rain late last night/early this morning. No sign of grass greening up quite yet, but probably not too far off.

Looks right on par with the rest of the winter. -
Vid about the 2013 Moore OK EF5 from our ol' buddy Broyles from SPC.
-
Today's 56 degrees felt a lot better than 56 degrees after that bitterly cold Saturday. MLI torching at 60 atm.
-
Vis showing where some of the heaviest squalls took place yesterday.
-
11 years ago today the high was 83 degrees at MLI. Today their high was 24.
