Stebo Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 open less threads and post less plz and 2" is a moderate event for detroit. Except its not coming here for starters and 2" is never a moderate event for Detroit even in a horrid winter. Lol at the post less part btw. I see you had your usual cheese and cheap beer dinner tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue60007 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 12Z NAM looks quite a bit juicer further south. Nice swatch of 1-3" across IN/IL. Too bad its still 48 hours out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 NAM has a lot more moisture then the GFS. 12z GFS is weak. Milwaukee has heaviest snow north of the city, but in this case it would be in IL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 12Z NAM looks quite a bit juicer further south. Nice swatch of 1-3" across IN/IL. Too bad its still 48 hours out. NAM and GFS would be a nice 1-2" for us. Euro looks like it would be close but temps are a little more marginal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kab2791 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Euro showing around 0.2 QPF, ukie: 0.3-0.35 QPF, GFS 0.16, NAM around 0.10, up here, so 2-3" maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 LOT FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA AND BREAK DOWN FRIDAY. THE UPPER TROUGH WHICH CROSSES THE AREA TONIGHT WILL BE OFF TO THE EAST BUT THE NORTHERN SECTION WILL CLOSE OFF OVER NORTHERN ONTARIO. THE LOCAL AREA WILL BE UNDER THE NORTHWESTERLY FLOW BEHIND THE TROUGH WITH A SHORTWAVE EXPECTED TO ZIP SOUTHEASTWARD FROM SOUTHERN ALBERTA CROSSING THE AREA LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING FRIDAY. THERE WILL BE A WEAK SURFACE REFLECTION OF THE UPPER TROUGH WITH ANOTHER COLD FRONT CROSSING THE AREA WITH IT. MODEL DETAILS DIFFER IN TERMS OF PRECIP AMOUNTS BUT EXPECT THAT A FAIRLY STRONG BAND OF FORCING WILL CROSS THE AREA DURING THIS TIME RESULTING IN A 3-6 HOUR WINDOW FOR SNOW TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA. LATEST GUIDANCE HAS SLOWED HE ARRIVAL SOMEWHAT SO START AND END TIMES MAY NEED ADJUSTMENT. BEST UPPER FORCING LINES UP WELL WITH THE OPTIMAL SNOW GROWTH ZONE AND THIS COULD HAVE THE MAKINGS OF A SHORT LIVED BUT FAIRLY INTENSE SNOW EVENT. IN TERMS OF AMOUNTS IT STILL APPEARS THAT ANYWHERE FROM A HALF TO PERHAPS 2 INCHES COULD ACCUMULATE. THE WAVE MOVES OFF TO THE EAST EARLY SATURDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING BRIEFLY BUILDING IN FROM HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. SATURDAY SHOULD BE DRY AND MODESTLY COOLER THAN FRIDAY GIVEN SOME COLD ADVECTION. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 If it takes multiple sub 6" events to get to normal snowfall this winter, I'll take it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Congrats Hawkeye!!!! Looks like a general 1-2" over a large area later tomorrow and tomorrow night depending on which model you look at. Not very impressive at all, but at least it will be nice to see some snow falling again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Nickel diming to average ftw! That is exactly what seems to be happening here. This winter is giving 06-07 a run for it's money with the nickel and diming stuff. Gonna be hard to top that though as that had a slew of nickel and dimes here in Feb and beyond. Have to imagine some sort of record was broke ( most nickel and dimes? ) that winter considering that despite lacking one warning criteria event the seasonal total was nearly 20" above the norms and thus close to 80" on the season.
