Hoosier Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 00z runs don't look too promising for LAF. The changes are magnified anytime you're dealing with sharp gradients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrocks Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I haven't posted in a long while but I have been following this system. Temperature is 34 near downtown but still no precip here in Louisville. However, I expect things to go downhill here in the next few hours.

cyclone77 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 00z runs don't look too promising for LAF. The changes are magnified anytime you're dealing with sharp gradients. Very tough forecast for you guys. Was looking at the 4km NAM a bit earlier, and it showed a tremendous gradient from north to south over the county LAF is in. Even the slightest bump north tomorrow could give you guys several inches quite easily. Definitely not out of the game to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like some serious banding is setting up just to your north and working it's way up into my neck of the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 04z RAP at 19z tomorrow. Tremendous cutoff on the northern edge of the precip. 12km/4km NAM looked fairly similar in the placement of the cutoff. Still too close to call for LAF though, IMO.

I've been on the 1-2" train for some time...started to doubt it last night when things went drier and haven't really been able to buy in to heavier amounts given lack of run to run consistency and the tight gradients. I think 1-2" is the best call at this point and will consider anything extra to be a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 CLE recorded a high of 63 yesterday and was grazed with a half inch of snow from the first round of this storm. I'll have to pull out some weather data, but I can't envision there are too many days which featured highs in the 60s and a half inch of snow in the same day.

Pretty dreadful model performance for us. The NAM probably flip flopped the most...the runs where it had nothing proved to be correct but hard to give it much credit with all the flip flops. Euro was consistently on the lower end but not sure if any of its runs had a shutout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 It's probably going to end up being 2.3" here in Athens, OH...really not bad for a system where we had to hope the cold air caught the precip before it pulled out. Saw inch per hour rates for about an hour after the changeover to snow, and 0.2" of that total was sleet that fell over the course of about an hour before we changed to snow. It's still snowing lightly but I suspect it won't add up to anything measurable...just in case cleared a few select spots near my dorm here and will check later. Really not easy making do without a snowboard on a college campus when measuring snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
