LSX WRF and IWX WRF look pretty decent for SE MI (and YYZ extrapolating). Both pick up on the some heavier snows in the trowal. IWX WRF shows 0.6" for the Detroit area.

EDIT: I see we were thinking and doing the same thing hm8 :lol:

I'll say. IWX WRF actually gets the primary sfc low up to the OH River. Not expecting that, but if it did happen, it'd be huge.

Both are not a total whiff for LAF anymore either, as their respective 12z runs were. Need all the backup we can get. :D

Yup...this is a dangerous, dangerous page for model watching...so many hi-res models...so much opportunity for you to find one with unrealistic totals and get your hopes up....

SmartCast Analysis 26 Dec 03Z to 27 Dec 03Z.

Dayton Region: Looking at snow to begin around 08Z, then increasing in intensity around 12Z, with snow rates of 2.0” possible from 12Z to 17Z. Winds will also begin to increase above 35MPH after 11Z and continue through 16Z. Currently my SmartCast is showing 12.9” of accumulation for the Dayton Region.

Indianapolis Region: Looking for snow to begin at 08Z and continue through the 03Z period. Heaviest snow looks to be from 13Z to 18Z, with snowfall rates around 1.2” possible during this time frame. In addition, winds will increase to 35 to 38MPH from 09Z to 18Z, which will cause blizzard like conditions across the Indy area. Currently looking at around 9.3” of accumulation for this area.

Terre Haute Region: Snow will begin around 05Z and increase in intensity from 11Z to 17Z, with snowfall rates up around 1” possible during this time frame. Winds will also gust up to 35MPH from 10Z to 17Z, causing blizzard like conditions across the area. Around 8.1” of accumulation is possible.

Columbus Region: Tracking snow to begin around 08Z and increasing in intensity from 13Z to 18Z, with snowfall rates approaching 1.5” possible during this time frame. My SmartCast showing temps starying just above freezing, which is limiting the snowfall accumulations. Right now showing 3 to 5” possible, if temps are indeed colder, then looking at 7-10” across this region.

I understand canuck's anger and rage lol, but yeah, how much qpf exactly?

damn really wish i had the access again.

Looks like it's about 0.60-0.65" like the 12z. Lock step with the GFS. I'm going to safely deposit in the trash can. We'll keep an eye on it, but I don't think there's any reason to incorporate its ridiculous amounts into any forecast.
