  1. These are all fine solutions. I consider myself very lucky to be in the game for a 6”+ event and the south central Iowa weenies can enjoy their moment of glory. I’m hoping tomorrow we can get a bit more QPF out of this further East. Still have a whole day to sort that out until people start posting the HRRR and it’s Madison blockbuster early scenarios
  2. I agree that’s the goal, but ultimately I think a watch is an appropriate product at this juncture.
  3. GEM has this Thursday lake band again associated with the system behind our main one.
  4. Radar doesn’t look bad. Wouldn’t be surprised to pick up an inch
  5. They can always issue a watch and replace it with an advisory, that’s the purpose of a watch vs a warning
  6. The GEM continues to hang precip around the lake well into Tuesday. Clear trend for a longer duration event with a drier defo but equivalent QPF overall Edit: eh, maybe 0.1-0.2” less
  7. This is the largest event of the season for the CWA and the largest event for the metro in 3 years. They will issue a watch
  8. We’ll see. I’m riding my 6-12. Have faith that even in the event of a sheared solution, the lake will help us and we’ll have our first 6” event in 3 years. Maybe.
  9. Fair, but by that metric you’d have the same worry for south central Iowa, no?
  10. And a 12 hour break before a 1-2” refresher Wednesday evening. Love it
  11. End of the NAM run is very Euro-esque with snow continuing through most of the day Tuesday into Wednesday.
  12. Ultimately no meaningful changes through 54 hours. If you’re in the defo band once the low starts moving East, it’s gonna rock. That would be DVN and LOT CWAs. Edit: There does look like less QPF in the defo band, but more backside snows as evidenced by the changes in central Nebraska.
  13. Yes. The distribution is highly left skewed and is throwing off the mean. The mean here is not a fair representation, it’s underdone
  14. Distribution of members is bimodal and the mean lies at the low end of the 2nd mode and well below the median. I studied statistics and these are all very, very good things
  15. It gets shunted East at hour 45, phew. It’s stronger though. QPF is going to be juiced
  16. SLP is 2mb stronger and approximately 150 miles northwest. This is going to be a crusher for south central Iowa
  17. Great analysis, thanks for this. FWIW, looks like Kuchera maps have been hovering around 11-12:1 for most of the CWA, so seems reasonable and perhaps per your work above, upside from there.
  18. I think warmer temps aloft and less lake enhancement on Monday will be compensated by the fact its mostly an overnight event. And just in time as Tuesday rolls around, low passes to our south, temps are colder and lake enhancement can begin
  19. If you’re in LOT or DVN you love the 18z euro. Hard to get much better than that. Widespread 8-14”, long duration event
  20. Thank the lord. It also doesn’t collapse QPF east as aggressively
