I didn't even get an inch. Our RH was in low 70s even after snow started. Dry air really won out here. Kept getting in subsidence bands as well. Cutoff was brutal as advertised. And next one looks to miss as well. Not our winter up here.
Been stuck in a subsidence band a while. Probably not going to get any meaningful rates till band pivots back around. What a disappointing winter storm.
Yeah it's the dry ne fetch around periphery of arctic high. Eating into the snow. The precip is going into saturating the column instead of falling to ground. The more north you are the drier the air and harder/longer it will be to precipitate.
Dude you have no idea. Lol. I'm hella stressed. I'm in north Peoria and models like hrrr/rap have me nervous because cutoff could be I74. Nam gave me a little hope. Euro still so south. Gfs holding north. No idea what to expect here.
Still pretty far south compared to other models esp regarding the heaviest band. Seems closer to I70 whereas other models are more I72. But nice to see precip shield extending north. Dry air worries me though.
