  1. Thankfully this spring had the slowest snow melt I've ever seen with the 30-40F highs all month. Rivers have already peaked. 1-3'' in next couple days could raise them again but it may be too late for flooding.
  2. uh, are we restricting this strictly to severe thunderstorms? Minnesota and Wisconsin may receive anywhere from 0-15'' on the back side (could bust). All in 6-8 hours with thundersnow likely.
  3. The thing I dislike the most is the Minnesota split. Most of the time I'm posting in the Lakes/Ohio Valley forum since it's most active, but if it's mostly plains in here. If all of Iowa is there Minnesota should be too. It's even more Great lakes.
  4. Here's a website to do it with NAM currently selected. Example:
  5. The break in the snow looks nonexistent at this point which means more snow. This is just tonight.
  6. I'm now in a Blizzard Warning. It will be interesting to see how high the drifts get. Drifts of several feet are expected.
  7. NAM 3K now has higher snowfall south with the first band increasing totals. Would be 24'' for me.
  8. Usually this type of thing happens at least once a year in the Dakotas. Nice to see Minnesota getting it for once. Also Nebraska did have a snowstorm with more than 30 inches last month.
  9. Short term models aren't showing much on the south end where part 2 would overlap. NAM for comparison:
  10. Looks like a once in a lifetime system. I'm excited. Fortunate I don't work mid week. It should be. The Winter Storm watch is continuous. The AFDs have made it seem so as well. Also some runs like the Canadian model don't even have a break in the snow.
  11. Didn't expect this. First time Minnesota, Wisconsin, or Iowa has had a January severe risk. Minnesota has never had a January or February tornado or even a warning for severe. It will be interesting to see if the low chance happens.
  12. Southern Minnesota roads closed. It's been a few years since I've seen that. I didn't know ground blizzards could be seen on satellite. A few other interesting features too if you look closely.
  13. I've never seen a cold front this clean.
  14. Reminds me of December 15, 2021. Minnesota has never had a day with multiple tornadoes in November and only a few tornadoes overall. I was hoping for the snow side. SW MN:
  15. My excitement is growing. Prepared to be disappointed though.
  16. Steep lapse rates with some CAPE surprised me with some pea size hail. It was probably 10% rain 90% hail which was unique.
  17. Gnarly cell coming out of the radar site.
  18. The eye is trying to come back.
  19. Really clear eye now with high clouds all around. Possible mesovortices even?
