We've actually kinda lost our "getting screwed over" title here in the past 4 or so winters. It has moved east to OKK according to KokomoWx. j/k Jim.

Powerball Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Oh wow, I just saw the 06z NAM and the 06z NMM. " Now I'm just about receiving 0.50" from both of them. In fact, it even shows a period of 30+ DBZs. All of them show large scale ascent increasing this afternoon too as the surface low intensifies.

michsnowfreak Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 On 2/5/2011 at 1:16 PM, Chicago WX said: Latest HRRR completed run. 5-6" of snow beginning 8 hours after the forecast still called for Partly Sunny. If this verifies, it will EASILY be the biggest bust, good or bad, I have ever experienced. So far the biggest nowcast bust was Jan 8, 2005 when forecast the night before called for 1" of snow and we ended up getting 5.9". Next place would be March 23, 1997 when the forecast the day before was sunny and we ended up with 3" of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Good thing this thing didn't have another 12 hours to strengthen more. At this point, I think the call for LAF needs to be bumped to 3-5". Chuck'em. :weenie: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went a conservative 2-4" but if its true about dendritic growth, then say you get 15-1 ratios, then 0.40" qpf yields 6" of snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow depth is a very packed 11" now (water content 1.5"), so by this evening should be seeing best snow depth since January 1999 if we get the lastest amounts the models spit out! Could be approaching 15-18" by this evening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
