Chicago WX Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 That's why they invented hats you know.. How do you think I went bald? From wearing hats all the time when I was younger, well at least that's what my grandmother used to tell me. I may change my username to ping after this one is done.

cyclone77 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 you have to wonder if this is one of those times the long range RUC picks up on a NW trend. That would be a huge NW trend. I wouldn't expect anything that extreme but who knows. You guys are looking fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadTown Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 snowing pretty hard out right now i would say close to 3" so far. looks like a band will move through and be done but as soon as one moves through another pops up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just went outside to put my wiper blades up on my car, and I'd call it mod-heavy pingers. Hurt too, hitting my bald dome. Windows might end up breaking at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npcougar Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 From KIND Storm blog: 8:37 PM...Spotter at Terre Haute reports 0.10 inch of ice so far. Also received a report from Greenfield of nearly 0.25 inch of ice so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Had to do it lol...long range RUC. ORD would end up getting into the main band with IKK on southward getting near the dry slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue60007 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Visibility over the valley from my apartment window is pretty low just from the sleet. I do se a few flakes starting to mix in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartyOn Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hello. New to the site..SEMI here. 0z models are gona be fun..hearing chatter about a tick to the north and higher QPF. Gulf is completely wide open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneyman Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 NAM at HR 18 looks pretty close to hr 24 on the 18z. Big difference is the QPF shield is farther N and a tad west then 18z, and the low is stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayPSU Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 0Z NAm still way east and weak. What a junk model it is right now. I find that the NAM does an excellent job with thermal projections. In my area where slight changes in surface temps are the difference between rain and a paralyzing ice storm, the NAM is a very valuable tool.

hoosierwx Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just started ZR here, expecting 1/4 to 1/2 inch before it gets above freezing tommorow( I hope). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickysixes Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 We've got about 20" on the ground IMBY so the further north ice & sleet, the better. Hopefully we squeeze out more than a few inches of fluff but I'm not optimistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeenerWx Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Really interested to see the new model runs. The clown maps are tempting but I've always been really uneasy. Uneasy about sleet at home too. I will only make the trip if it's a guarantee to see 12"+. Now, I'm not so sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 0Z NAm still way east and weak. What a junk model it is right now. Conceptually not looking right based on the upper levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moneyman Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 NAM actually ends up a tad farther east then 18z and the same strength. Either it's onto something or it's junk, I'll go with junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baroclinic_instability Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Conceptually not looking right based on the upper levels. Yeah it is the only piece of guidance continually so weak in the upper height fields and remaining an open wave. Massive differences in magnitude between the NAM and other guidance of the upper wave. The SREF NMM members are much better--NAM is once again out to lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 This is one of the most dramatic inversions I can recall on a sounding around here. A tad above 0C at 850 mb and -10C at 900 mb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And based on WV trends right now, I'm not favoring the open wave scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
