  1. Not buying the severe threat on Wednesday yet. GFS and NAM have been terrible at reading the snow depth. I'll doubt the 8-12'' of snow will melt by Wednesday afternoon. Minnesota hasn't had severe weather in December and the latest tornado is November 16.
  2. I see that now, the Kentucky cell is moving towards Fort Knox, Kentucky so thought he meant that.
  3. Largest snowfall that season for me was 9.8''.
  4. You could be getting lucky I haven't gotten over 12'' of snow in a storms since December 2010. Last time I remember southern Minnesota getting over 14'' was May 2013.
  5. You mean 8 minutes after he posted this? He said a tornado west of Lake City was going towards town. It didn't touch down until after Lake City. Stupid thing to say it's confirmed when not.
  6. The amazing thing is the GFS has picked this system up from the start and hasn't stopped. I don't know if I've seen that before.
  7. Everyone here complaining about rain while the GFS has 24'' of snow for me.
  8. Lot's of 55-60 mph wind gusts in western Minnesota with heavy snow. Most roads are closed.
  9. Upped that to 60mph: Winds pick up mid afternoon and be impressive. Very effective mixing and an unstable boundary layer could bring 50+kt wind gusts down to the surface. Forecast soundings from western Minnesota show 60+ kt winds at the top of the mixed layer, with gusts up to 60 mph possible in western MN.
  10. All time October lows may be broken in Minnesota next week with December weather.
  11. Thankfully the fall colors came early this year and most of the leaves are gone. Already lost a couple inches today with mid 30s and drizzle. Tomorrow looks like heavier rain south of the Twin Cities so there might be a small area that keeps it on the north side.
  12. Thursday storm has been trending south. Still rain for me but Twin Cities snow chances increasing.
  13. Measured 6.6''' as the snow is coming to an end here.
  14. Twin cities getting hammer. I'm south a bit and have about 6''.
  15. Probably once or twice. Looks like they will break the record for largest snowfall this early in the season. October snow facts Twin Cities: Largest Daily Snowfall Totals, October Rank Date Amount (inches) 1 October 31, 1991 8.2 2 October 29, 1905 5.5 3 October 20, 1916 3.0
  16. Looks like a snowy end to the month possible in the upper midwest
  17. The only Tropical system from the gulf I can find that has impacted Minnesota is Hurricane Alicia in 1983. Sometimes we get remnants from pacific storms.
