csnavywx Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Yeah, best band seems to be setting up right along the axis of best DPVA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrys Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Finished the storm with 9-10 inches. Once again Carver County hit the heavy band. It seems like this area always does well with storms, while the northern and eastern metro tend to get consistently lesser amounts. I didn't enjoy this storm as much as the last, since I had to drive in it late last evening. Our season total is now at 23-24" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxMidwest Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Last Viroqua,Wi observation was 7.3 inches, after all is said and done, I would say 8.5-9 inches total. Of course the Snow Advisory was bumped up to WSW for Vernon,County Wisconsin. Over-Performer........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natester Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 I just woke up and it's still snowing. I'd say there is about 2 inches of snow on the ground right now. Areas to my north and east got alot more but hey, at least I got snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janetjanet998 Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 LOT DISCUSSION...UPDATED 15Z... TRAILING PORTION OF BAND OF ACCUMULATING SNOW NOW OVER NORTHERN IL PER REGIONAL RADAR MOSAIC. IFR CONDITIONS PERSIST OVER MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA WITHIN THIS BAND...WITH MOIST LOW LEVELS AND FOG HELPING TO REDUCE VISIBILITY TO LESS THAN A MILE OVER TERMINALS IN ADDITION TO FALLING SNOW. SHOULD SEE GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT LATE THIS MORNING AS MID LEVEL WAVE RESPONSIBLE FOR FORCING PRECIP MOVES SOUTHEAST INTO CENTRAL IL/SOUTHERN IND...WITH MVFR CIGS/VIS EXPECTED IN LINGERING LGT SNOW/FLURRIES THIS AFTERNOON. QUESTIONS REMAIN OVER LAKE EFFECT POTENTIAL INTO ORD/MDW THIS AFTERNOON. RADAR OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS HAS INDICATED WEAK MESOSCALE CIRCULATION EAST OF MKE/ENW WHICH HAS BEEN DRIFTING WEST/SOUTHWEST WITH TIME. HIGH RES LOCAL WRF AND EVEN 12 KM WRF RUN INDICATE THIS FEATURE WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE CONVERGENCE ALONG THE WESTERN SHORE OF THE LAKE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON... THOUGH THERMAL PROFILE RATHER WARM AT THIS TIME FOR SUPPORTING STRONG LAKE EFFECT PRECIP. MAIN RESULT MAY BE TO JUST PRODUCE A LONGER PERIOD OF LIGHTER SNOW THIS AFTERNOON FOR ORD/MDW. GREATER THREAT AT GYY...WHERE NORTHERLY WIND FIELD TONIGHT WILL FOCUS LAKE BANDS AS THERMAL PROFILE BECOMES MORE CONDUCIVE TO LAKE EFFECT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Much better than your 1/3" prediction Start with over-the-top pessimism, throw in the extra fact that clippers, regardless of track, almost always overperform.... and I could see these results coming from miles away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I knew he wasnt serious...but in general there is always, I repeat always, pessimism before a near-certain snowfall. Will be the case all winter. here, there, everywhere on the board Its weenie nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
