Wow...interesting.  Is this all snow for S. Ontario??  If so, looking like 10-20cm for Hamilton-Toronto.  Didn't see this coming.  I assumed winter was done, like many other folks. Lol

Looks like we finally may cash in.

Did I see the Euro saying about 1" of QPF for GRR and all of it snow?  Is that real?  If so, wow, that would be the icing on the cake of an amazing two weeks of LES.

 

EURO has the Grand Rapids metro area at over 9".

Storms like this make the non belt GL/OV v. SNE who gets better winters debate seem ridiculous  

 

 

of course, they own by a longshot.

 

anyways, LOT

 

EARLY THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...A WINTRY MIX OF PRECIP IS LOOKING

LIKELY FOR THURSDAY AS A SHORTWAVE DEVELOPS IN THE WESTERLY UPPER

FLOW AND AN INVERTED TROUGH SWINGS ACROSS THE AREA. PRECIP LOOKS TO

ARRIVE DURING THE WEE HOURS OF THURSDAY MORNING AND SPREAD

SOUTHEAST. THERMAL PROFILES SHOW A RANGE OF PRECIP TYPES ACROSS THE

CWA. EVAPORATIONAL COOLING LOOKS TO PROVIDE COOLER PROFILES AT ONSET

ACROSS THE AREA WHICH WILL COMPLICATE THE FORECAST DETAILS. AT THIS

POINT GUIDANCE DOES SHOW A RANGE OF MAGNITUDES FOR THE EXPECTED WARM

LAYER ALOFT BUT BASED ON TRENDS SEEN TODAY AND OVER PREVIOUS DAYS AS

WELL AS ACCOUNTING FOR EVAPORATIONAL COOLING IT SEEMS THAT SLEET/SNOW

MAY BE THE FAVORED PRECIP TYPE FOR NORTHERN AREAS...ROUGHLY NORTH OF

INTERSTATE 80...WITH FREEZING RAIN A POSSIBILITY FOR A TIME IF

WARMER PROFILES WIN OUT. AREAS TO THE SOUTH SHOULD SEE A MORE

SIGNIFICANT WARM LAYER DOWN LOW SUGGESTING FULL MELTING OF FALLING

PRECIP WITH SURFACE TEMPS BEING THE KEY BETWEEN RAIN AND FREEZING

RAIN AT LEAST DURING THE MORNING.
