Chicago WX Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 *** 12z MET has 41º for IND tomorrow. T-orch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCNYILWX Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Regarding the NAM and its higher totals today/tonight, should be in a good range to sniff out the fgen banding, maybe even more so than the GFS because of the NAM's higher resolution. On the day of the event the NAM performed very well with the February events last winter. We'll see about it being the farthest north with tomorrow's wave. Sent from my SCH-I535 In the office at all over the next 60 hours? 6am tomorrow then the rest of the week, should be a fun drive from Naperville.

Actually planning to attempt going to a party in the city tonight lol. May end up having to take the train in if it's bad, which this would be one of the events where roads could be a little rough given how cold it is. The 1/20/12 event that has been referenced had terrible road conditions because of the cold temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-L-E-K Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Gino NOT PLANNING ANY CHANGES THIS MORNING TO THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORYLOCATION/TIMING...HOWEVER QUICK GLANCE AT 12Z GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THATMAY NEED TO EXTEND END TIME OF HEADLINE SOME AND POSSIBLY EXPAND THEAREA. GIVEN THAT THE EVENT APPEARS WELL COVERED THROUGH THE NEXT 24HOURS WOULD LIKE TO TAKE SOME TIME TO FULLY DIGEST THE MORNINGGUIDANCE AND COLLABORATE WITH NEIGHBORING OFFICES BEFORE MAKING ANYCHANGES TO GOING FORECAST AND HEADLINES FOR THE SYNOPTIC PORTION OFTHE EVENT.HAVE OPTED TO HOIST A LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCH FOR LATE WEDNESDAYNIGHT INTO THURSDAY FOR COOK COUNTY AND BOTH LAKE COUNTIES. LAKEEFFECT IS FICKLE AND TOUGH TO NAIL DOWN DETAILS OF WHERE...BUT LAKEEFFECT PARAMETERS WOULD SUGGEST THE POTENTIAL FOR INTENSE LES BANDWITH VERY HIGH SNOWFALL RATES. WILL HAVE MORE ON THE LES POTENTIALIN THE AFTERNOON AFD.IZZI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
