18z GFS is defintely east a bit

the spread is huge on the ensembles

its an interesting setup, hopefully it doesnt fizzle out into a single, standard storm that passes NW of many....yawn

id like to see the more complex and interesting scenarios play out, even if that mean ptype issues....

If you look at the full track after ejecting from the Rockies at it goes north and "west" of the 12z before ending up south and "east" of 12z.,s o it depends upon what area you're looking at.

I could spout off reams of reasons why I think this could trend SE, but I'm going to save my breath, because climatologically, that track looks pretty reasonable. And without some type of downstream blocking, I think that factor will rule the day.

As has been the case with the past couple of systems a bit of it will have to do with whatever happens to the front runner. Pretty amazing how we keep getting these near identical set ups with a front runner just ahead of the main system. Thus i would not rule anything out at this point.

You guys are due. :thumbsup::snowman:

Thanks, but it's true...we are at 103 inches for the season (pretty much our normal annual snowfall)...but I'm always due for more snow! :thumbsup:

As far as these storms moving in from the southwest, you could say we are due...as they have gone west and given us rain or gone south and we're on the edge of the heaviest snow. I'd love to be right dead on in the center of the heaviest snow...which is what it looks like as of right now. Although that will most likely change! :(

I went for a hike at Hoffmaster State Park (five minutes from my house) and there was still about two feet in places in the woods..most residential areas have about a foot of snow.

Sorry, my powers for a SE trend are failing. Probably wasn't a good idea, especially for MBY, I started the thread anyway. :lol:

More heavy rainfall for Indiana looking likely...not good with the ongoing flooding. :(
