cyclone77 Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 Been snowing here for a good 45min, but it's not sticking, even in the grass. Must need some ultra high rates to get this stuff to stick unless you already have a base down. Lightning being reported as far north as Galesburg now.

IWXwx Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Looks like last night's 00z NAM was a blip. Final call for LAF: 8-11" I hope you're right. IWX bought the NAM, especially after getting burned on the last storm. They cut back amounts and their graphic has me in the 3" - 5" range. Extrapolating the map would put Tippecanoe County on the northern edge of 5" - 7". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 MSN already got .04" liquid, including some heavy snow with 0.25 mile visibility around 10 am. Looks like accumulating snow is possible through midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowlord81 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Looks like last night's 00z NAM was a blip. Final call for LAF: 8-11" Sounds good! Chad thinks the heaviest totals may be just south of LAF, but 8+ is nothing to sneeze at. Im just hoping for some lightning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cut back amounts and their graphic has me in the 3" - 5" range. Extrapolating the map would put Tippecanoe County on the northern edge of 5" - 7". Good luck there. Cutoff should be pretty sharp. I think the highest chance for double digit amounts could be just to the south of LAF but a minor northward drift would put the heart of the heaviest band right overhead.

*IndyMeso* Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I see *IndyMeso* lurking. She's in a sweet spot. Haha I am. Debated on whether to stay at home in Noblesville or head down to Indy. Seeing I work for the State EMA I opted to head to Indy just in case we activated. Right now just the waiting game but anything left from this morning is hard to find.

Seeing I work for the State EMA I opted to head to Indy just in case we activated. Right now just the waiting game but anything left from this morning is hard to find. It's a good thing that it's going to be a wet snow. With the winds speeds predicted this evening, 10" would be ugly and you'd be activated. Good luck and enjoy the storm. BTW, St. Louis is getting blasted. Several 7-8" reports from the northwest side and still snowing heavily. A true STL-IND special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 IKK has a thing for reporting distant lightning...and is never right. Probably the runway spot lights hitting the sensor or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
