CranberryWX Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Snow squall this morning, 29F...the snow is driving sideways with the howling wind. The ground is white..about 0.1". Stepped outside to grab my rain guage and was met by a blast of wind driven snow...it's brutal out there after being used to the recent warmth. Wind chill is down to 15. The wind had our window wreaths bumping and scraping the windows all night. 0.39" of total precip with the rain yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun to see everyone's biases come out to play. The storm is still a good ways off as you note.. If the solutions we see right now are completely correct I'd be pretty surprised.

WxUSAF Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Got 1" of rain out of last night. Not bad. I'll take the entire 00z GFS run and roll with it. Love it's version of the Christmas eve storm. I'd happily trade 2-3" on Christmas eve for whatever is behind Curtain #2 for the Chill storm.

mattie g Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 We ain't gonna get sh** on Christmas, and Bob's storm is going to be a cold, cold rain. But I'll take solace in the fact that the Ian storm is still looking OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justaterp Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 24 degrees and snowing lightly here in McHenry. Just a dusting so far. Arrived last night with an air temp of 35, but it quickly dipped below freezing after midnight. The forecast calls for better rates this afternoon and tonight. Radar suggests more moderate snow could be an hour or two away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtstack Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'm not feeling real lucky playing this Miller B game for 12/26-27, at least in the local I-95 corridor, unless you are a fan of snow to ice to rain events. Given we are entering the range where the models are somewhat useful, I'm tossing in the towel on any solution that would be all snow for the coastal plane. Increasing confidence that this is a big storm for the Mountains though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 SNE looks to do well which is all that really matters. This run kinda sucks.. I want to go back to yesterday when the vort was further south. #floridatornadoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 My view of the GFS isn't that rosy so I'm not going to comment. I'd hug the Euro if I didn't know it was too bullish and I was going to be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increasing confidence that this is a big storm for the Mountains though. I don't think an all snow or classic storm has even been on the table so it's not like a bubble busting event. Those are the worst. Getting teased with a classic and have it fall to sh!t inside of 5 days. This one was a chicago special that has improved for us over time. I'm totally into that. There is the odd chance that a chicago special can give us front end snow and not ip/zr but I'd much prefer to in the track vs flanked. Good times!
