Ajdos Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I agree. I feel we haven't been given one last "goodbye" snow yet. Our last snow of any consequence was way back in early Feb during the blizzard. Since then it's been a Michigan snowfest lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 LOL. I know a lot of you guys got off to a slow start earlier this winter, so it's good you cashed in later in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastFromTheEast Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 12z GFS brings it back! Albeit a bit weaker and further south than the big run yesterday.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 12z GFS brings it back! Albeit a bit weaker and further south than the big run yesterday.. Yeah, it's just gotten delayed a bit. Never really disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 Yeah, it's just gotten delayed a bit. Never really disappeared. A good DVN to LAF hit on the 12z run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 A good DVN to LAF hit on the 12z run. Yeah probably about a 4-7" type event. The track is very much up in the air at this point though. The NAM is more suppressed than the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 09z SREF further north as well, and gives a little more credit towards the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southmountainwx Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 DSM AFD Looking good here in SE Iowa. .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... PERIOD BEGINS WITH MS VALLEY HIGH PRESSURE THURSDAY AND ATTENTION TURNING TO WRN LONG WAVE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED LEAD SHORT WAVE. INITIAL WAVE OF CONCERN IS STILL WELL OFF CA COAST LATE THIS AFTERNOON BUT IS EXPECTED TO REACH THE CENTRAL PLAINS THU EVENING. THIS INCREASES DEEP FORCING AND SATURATION WHICH HAS RESULTED IN LIKELY POPS CLOSER TO BETTER UVM TOWARD MO BORDER. H85/H7 TROUGH THEN LINGERS INTO THE WEEKEND UNTIL LOW PASSAGE LATE SATURDAY FINALLY DIMINISHES PRECIP CHANCES. AFTER EARLY FRIDAY QG FORCING WANES EVEN THOUGH MOISTURE BELOW 3KM LINGERS SO DROPPED POPS BACK INTO CHANCE CATEGORY. THERE IS DISAGREEMENT BETWEEN THE MODELS HOWEVER WITH 12Z ECMWF/NAM PLACING GREATER EMPHASIS INTO MO WHILE 12Z GFS AND NOW 15Z SREF NUDGING FARTHER NORTH INTO IA. 12Z GFS COBB SNOW AMOUNTS ARE QUITE IMPRESSIVE...UP TO A FOOT IN SPOTS...BUT OBVIOUSLY HAVE NOT JUMPED ON THAT UNTIL MODELS CONVERGE MORE ON A CONSENSUS. JET REMAINS WELL TO OUR SOUTH INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH IA ON THE NRN FRINGE OF STORM TRACK. MAIN PRECIP WINDOW APPEARS TO BE MON INTO TUE...BUT MAINLY OVER SRN IA. TEMPS WILL REMAIN AT OR BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH RECENT WARMING ALL BUT GONE FOR THE TIME BEING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I don't care what anyone says, we're about due here in SE Wisconsin, especially near the lake, for a sizable event. We have not had a system bring us more than 4 or 5 inches at a time since the blizzard. Given the many systems since then that have given areas just to our north or south snow, it would be nice to have a favorable event here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Really hoping we see a north trend a little. As snowy as winter has been I would be ready to welcome spring if it was warm. BUT its as far from warm as you can get, upper air #s are close to record lows in fact in the coming days, and itd be a shame not to get any snow with so much unseasonable cold. Lets at least move DTW from 6th snowiest to 5th snowiest winter with so much winter-like air around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the average high looking to be close to 30 in the next seven days, it would be the worst case scenario to see it cold and dry. If it's not going to snow in the next several days, it might as well torch. Of course, it looks like it will do neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like there's still a fair amount of spread with this with the GFS being on the northern side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 The 21z SREF came in further south with the snow band and it looks like the 0z GFS is doing the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they moved towards what most the other models have been showing for days. Looks like northern Illinois misses the snow again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 0z GEM came north with a 999mb sfc low around SGF at 72hr with a nice hit for the southern half of IA up to around DSM or so and then eastward for IL along and south of I-80.

KokomoWX Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I hope for a wide miss south. Kokomo is playing at Conseco in the 4A game on Saturday night and I would rather not see a bunch of frenzied fans driving home in wintry conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southmountainwx Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 KOTM looking at 3 chances at snow the next 6 days. I do snow removal and this is usually my deadest period of the year for work. Of course this will delay the mowing season even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
