turtlehurricane Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Snow intensity picking up again in the mini deformation band on the NW side of the low, MSN reporting moderate snow with 0.05" of liquid in the past hour. Winter weather advisory issued for Dane County, 2-4" http://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=WIZ063&warncounty=WIC025&firewxzone=WIZ063&local_place1=&product1=Winter+Weather+Advisory Turtle- We have more here... Coming down good right now. Big fat flakes. Time to break out the cross country skis, or spikes for the bike wheels. Looks like another round of snow heading your way btw, that band in Minnesota must be fairly intense: http://tempest.aos.w...icompflash.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XcNick Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Surprised to see its still snowing IMBY (at a pretty good rate to). Seemed to me that this storm was going to be mostly rain for me. Nice little surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just taking a look at this event. Wouldn't be surprised to see a 1-3" type deal with maybe some locally higher amounts in persistent bands. Shouldn't be one of those massive inland penetrating events though given the relatively weak low level flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mentioned to Indystorm earlier that SBN's streak may end due to LES, but wind strength and trajectory may result in a whiff for their reporting station.

Natester Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 It appears my snowfall total will be a trace. All morning we've been right on the edge of both the precip and the rain/snow line. We got a few minor bursts of light snow, but that's it. My streak with no measurable snow continues. Same here. It was right around freezing and it was mostly just RAIN.

Hoosier Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Yeah, I mentioned to Indystorm earlier that SBN's streak may end due to LES, but wind strength and trajectory may result in a whiff for their reporting station. It looks like the winds will be shifting fairly quickly so their window may not be all that long. 1000-850 mb flow in the 10-15 kt range which should keep the max pretty close to shore but could be enough for something to make it to SBN.

wisconsinwx Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 It has been a rain/snow mix for much of the morning since about 10:30, mostly sleet and snow now, but no accumulation, not even really on grassy surfaces. Pretty much as expected, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Still all snow . Had a period where the flakes were huge. Edit:Dropped a degree to. Now at 30* That's a pretty good temperature for being within 10 miles of the lake! 34° at Port Washington - probably snowing within a mile of the lake I would say.

Yeah, dont get me wrong, I hate them right now but 2010-11 was the only above normal snow season in the last 8 years, whereas everyone else (outside of da U.P.) is running a huge surplus. Plus, count me in the camp that I dont mind laying down a little snowcover up there. Speaking of 2010-11, I wish there was some way to figure it out...I will bet you the winter of 2010-11 laid down the more snow in the non-mountainous U.S. than ever before.
