Chitown Storm Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 NBC5 in Chicago just had a teaser for the weather segment that is on in 10 minutes. Brant Miller says he has 'stunning new snowfall estimates'. Tom Skilling seems to be on board for higher totals as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 lol, 0.52" for LAF on the NAM. Looks good enough for mostly frozen. Good weenie run. Thanks NAM. Chad tosses the 00z NAM...says it's too "pro snow" because of the initial dry air and later the mid level dryslot. Also still very concerned about sleet.

Chargers09 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 WHAT DOES IT MEAN?! Hahaha, it's like pointing towards Detroit and saying "And here's where you'll **** the bed, giving Southeast Michigan another nuisance snow at best. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably warning snows out towards Cyclone if trends continue. Not directly related, but LES is blowing into Chicago this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Taft calling for 3inches---Miller saying 7 LES that was depicted on the NAM/NAM hires is accurate so far. Lake moisture should help reduce the virga time span. Skilling was mentioning lake flurries throughout the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csnavywx Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 HRRR, local LSX WRF, quite a few SREF members, and 4km NAM going ballistic with convection or a convectively enhanced frontogenic band starting over MO tomorrow and moving it towards STL just in time for lunch. 4km WRF also going ballistic with the snow totals. Almost all short range guidance up around 1" QPF, some higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kinda torn on what's gonna happen here. If everything were to go right and we don't have mixing issues during the height of the storm then 4+ seems possible. There's going to be a nice gradient somewhere around here in all likelihood. I could see the counties bordering to the south ending up with primarily sleet/freezing rain. Might even see a sharp gradient here across Tippecanoe county which isn't extraordinarily big to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One important plus is you guys look to get much more precip overall compared to the very dry runs that were seen a few days ago. Looks like you guys may battle some pingers at times, but being that close to the mix line could yield you some very heavy bursts of snow. No matter how much you guys end up with it should be very entertaining in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 first purple is 6" snow60.gif What kind of ratios are you thinking for this? I was guessing around 13-15:1 with the main burst at least. Figure there's gonna be some great dendrites with that. Following that though I'm guessing more of a 10:1 with much smaller small flakes as the pseudo dry slot moves overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
