SpartyOn Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Nice + mild should not be uttered in the same sentence during the month of January unless you are over 65 years old. Lol. That "nice" drop was tounge and check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Storm around the 24-26th looking interesting. That looks like one of those potential 34 and freezing rain storms in the region as we'll be coming off of this cold snap and there should be some lag time before the ground warms.

Hoosier Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 0z EURO with an ugly look by D10. Looks like it would be temporary as it would probably cool down again behind that system getting ready to eject into the Plains. This might be a tough pattern if you like significant snow but I don't see any reason for panic in terms of temps. Not gonna be wall to wall cold but I'd wager that cold will outduel warm.

Toronto4 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 The 12z Euro looks pretty interesting for the 24th/25th of next week. A nice bowling ball-type system moving across south of the lower lakes with lots of cold air still in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice bowling ball-type system moving across south of the lower lakes with lots of cold air still in place. Yep, would be a nice WWA/low end WSW event verbatim for most of S Michigan, and a couple inches for NE Illinois/SE Wisconsin with pretty good ratios in the latter areas given they are well entrenched in the cold air.

A nice bowling ball-type system moving across south of the lower lakes with lots of cold air still in place. Verbatim it's a miss to the south (maybe a graze job). Not that it matters. Storm was over GRB 24 hours ago on the EURO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 verbatim, it's a non-event Strange, though it looks like 2" or so here is accurate. Detroit and Toledo looked to receive around 0.5" or so, and most if not all was frozen. That's a legitimate event, of course could be different for your microclimate.

Hoosier Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 12z Euro has like .2 qpf at ORD for that event...I'd trust that over the snow map. Not that it matters this far out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoops, just posted about this in the record thread. But yeah, though there will be plenty more changes, this run verbatim would be a few inches of snow for NE IL.

hawkeye_wx Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 yeah I can't stand that site's snow map. I'm pretty sure the wunderground Euro snowfall maps used to show accumulation in tenths of an inch up to an inch, then 1, 2, 3 inches, etc. Sometime in the last month or two it changed to only show 1+ inches in any 3 hr period. A lot of lighter, but still accumulating snow, is now not being shown. I don't know why they would make that change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa Blizzard Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Hopefully we will see some lake snow off of Huron this week. Yesterday's snow was a surprise after all. By the way, I think the weather network is underdoing the upcoming cold. They have highs of minus 10 forecasted for Tuesday while environment Canada, which usually has a warm bias, is forecasting a high of minus 15 Celsius in markham on the same day.

Stebo Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Um, I dropped acid earlier this afternoon, so maybe it's that, but it kinda looks like the 18z GFS doesn't have ANY D7 storm. The vort was there, just further North and got sheared apart as it hit the confluence associated with the Polar vortex across Eastern Canada. Kind of funny that the Euro came South and the GFS went North. GGEM was even further South than the Euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detroit and Toledo looked to receive around 0.5" or so, and most if not all was frozen. That's a legitimate event, of course could be different for your microclimate. This. The 12z EURO had around 0.5" qpf falling with temps in the upper teens to low 20s. That is a warning criteria snowstorm. Will it change a hundred times? Probably...but verbatum the 12z scenario is great for a cold snowstorm here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
