Powerball Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 12z NAM has about 4-6" of snow here, heaviest band right along/just south of I-94 into Detroit proper. You can smell the rain on that run though. Pretty sharp cutoff into Toledo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-L-E-K Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Really is laughable best overlap between waffling model solutions seems to be somewhere between just south of Chicago to LAF and points SW/NE from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 on the not so fantasy land plus side, models seem to be ticking up the lift/intensity with the thursday snows...nothing crazy but better than the 6 flakes it looked like yesterday.

afterimage Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Not sure what the low levels are doing...haven't had a chance to look but concerning there would be a wedge of cold air and mix/ZR along and south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisconsinwx Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 GGEM solid Looks like it tracks between Terre Haute and Lafayette. Should be solid for Milwaukee and the Quad Cities as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmc76 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 And DTW needs 0.1" to tie snowiest month of all time It would be nice if we another day in this month. With the pending 4-8" on Saturday it would have made this record untouchable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Looks like it tracks between Terre Haute and Lafayette. Should be solid for Milwaukee and the Quad Cities as well. hard to tell, i just glanced at the b&ws probably 4-5" for chicago tapering to an inch or so for MKE. NAM/GFS/GGEM with decent low end moderate hit consensus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAM/GFS/GGEM with decent low end moderate hit consensus. More like 2-3" for Milwaukee, looks like a continuation of the snow situation from the last couple weeks, mostly penny and nickel hits with the occasional larger one.

Hoosier Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It's looking a little more interesting. Still expect a mixed bag, if not rain for a time, for LAF. But, it may be a "stay tuned" type of situation... My first guess with this is something in the 2-4" range before we change over to a mix or rain but confidence not very high. Looks like totals could be higher not too far north of us and a small bump south would put us in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like totals could be higher not too far north of us and a small bump south would put us in that. Well, you know a south bump very rarely works out, so...I'd think we'll very lucky to see more than an inch or two of snow. Smells like a good deal of relatively cold rain. But I wasn't expecting much frozen anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
