Geos-

What is your call on MSN/MKE/LSE???

 

NWS here going 3-5 inches...  seems high, but who knows.

 

I think all those places has a likely shot at 4". Milwaukee might come up a little short, because of the time of day and that the low pressure will be dragging up milder air. Wouldn't be surprised if your ratios were the highest.

 

RGEM goes ape with the moisture!

Yeah the 12z hi res NMM takes the low over MDW

 

Given there are already 1001mb obs in western/NW ND as of 17z, where the NAM is weaker, I think the more amped solutions will be correct.

 

Even the 15z RAP is taking the sfc low down to 994mb but it's north as it moves through southeast MN.

 

Will be interesting to watch p-falls as we go through the day to try to figure out the exact track.

 

Most models do have a pretty intense eastward moving N-S band of snow coming through here tomorrow morning. With such strong WAA across IA/MO it seems like that will be the case.

MKX is favoring the wetter runs.

Quick animated gif comparison of the 18z NAM/RAP for 12z tomorrow. 

 

RAP is stronger and further south, what's interesting is how far south the 1000mb contour gets (all the way to the IA/MO border where the NAM keeps it from further north from Cedar Rapids to Clinton.

I have a strange inkling that the "worst of winter" is over for us Toronto folks... 

 

 

Wayyyy to early to say that especially since we aren't at the halfway point of winter yet.

 

It looks like we could be in for more Siberian air come the 26th timeframe, so I wouldn't say the worst of winter is over for us by a long shot.

Feb. 4th Buffalos average high temperature goes from 31 to 32 and begins to increase 1-2 degrees each week throughout February. We have 3 more weeks of the coldest weather here. Snowfall wise our peak is Late November to late January which correlates to Lake Erie freezing over.

In terms of temperatures, Toronto's lowest averages are during the first two weeks of February as well.
