Chicago WX Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm not sure what they are seeing but I guess they are seeing something. Good luck overcoming this warm layer though. Well no joke. Not to be daft, but it's pretty clear what's going down here. And quite frankly, I'll take the sleet fest at this juncture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrocks Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Storm has been under performing down here. But that's ok because we're getting plain old rain instead of wintry conditions. We've had just over a half an inch of rain so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 DVN is all in now. Just issued AFD: 145 PM CST TUE FEB 1 2011 .UPDATE... THE BLIZZARD IS RAPIDLY BECOMING REALITY OVER THE CWA. AS UPDATED EARLIER...THE BLIZZARD WARNING IS ALREADY IN EFFECT FOR THE ENTIRE CWA...VS SOME STARTING AT 3 PM. MESOSCALE MODELS...MAP...SATELLITE...AND RADAR ANALYSIS ALL CONFIRM THE STORM IS TAKING A SLIGHTLY STRONGER AND FARTHER NORTHWEST TRACK THAN THE GFS INDICATES. HEAVY SNOW IS ALREADY FOUND OVER THE SOUTHERN 1/2 OF THE CWA...AS OF 19Z...WELL AHEAD OF MODELS EXCEPT FOR THE 15Z RUC. SNOWFALL REPORTS BETWEEN 11 AM AND 1 PM ARE ALREADY AROUND 2 INCHES IN THIS AREA. LOOKING AT SATELLITE AND RADAR...THE DRY SLOT APPEARS TO BE WORKING NORTH OF MOST FORECASTS...AND SHOULD MOVE JUST SOUTHEAST OF OUR CWA OVERNIGHT. THIS PLACES THE HEAVY AXIS OF SNOW THROUGH INCREDIBLE DEEP LAYER DENDRITIC LIFT RIGHT THROUGH THE SOUTHEASTERN 2/3RDS OF THE CWA THROUGH LATE TONIGHT. SO...BEFORE 00Z...SNOW AMOUNTS OF 6 TO 10 INCHES WILL HAVE ALREADY FALLEN ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 80. THIS ACCOUNTS FOR JUST UNDER 1/2 OF THE EVENT TOTAL IN THE FAR SOUTH. THUS...A WIDESPREAD 15 TO 22 INCH SNOW IS LIKELY OVER THE ENTIRE SOUTHEAST SLIGHTLY MORE THAN 1/2 OF THE CWA THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should get a nice total, but it sure would be nice if CR could get the brunt of an epic storm sometime. I've never even received a foot before.
