Superstorm93 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Cobb outputs from the 00z NAM are throwing out numbers anywhere from 55-70'' of snow in South Dakota. Even adjusting down two feet or so, that's still an incredibly impressive fall snowstorm. Gonna be interested to see what the actual totals get up to.

Jim Marusak Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 snow levels look to be between 4800 and 5200 ft attm, given the obs and the temps. question now is when does the switchover happen in rapid city? best guess from what I can see on the grids, say between 7a-10a mdt.
