Yes, it was a miss to the south for 3rd wave.

 

Besides maybe a half inch late tonight, this is strictly with Saturday night into Sunday

Euro/GFS going south with Sunday is fine, kinda of saw that coming but they're still pretty dry Saturday night, Euro in particular so I'm having a hard time coming around to those kind of totals.

I believe the second wave is our best bet.  I appear that it has been coming in a bit stronger which is sending the 3rd wave more to our south.  Yeah your call sounds about right.

 

Yes, I do agree with Josh on this one, 2-5" looks like a reasonable call at this junction. FWIW DTX is going with 2-4" in most places especially south of I-69.

Maybe we should throw in a 6" lolli in Wyandotte  ;) can't ignore that magnet   :lol:

 

I will say I have really liked DTXs process this winter.  They don't jump from run to run and have kept things well in perspective and not hyper IMO.

Yeah living and dying by every run looks bad from a NWS office. Best to watch for trends and adjust as you get closer. If anything the trend is for a stronger second wave which would be favorable for here.

Won't know for certain until tonight, but I think as a whole the heaviest snow band and ice line will shift up to 50 miles south of what was initially thought... Just a guess

 

 

It might be longer than that.  We won't even have full sampling for tomorrow's 12z runs. 

 

Pure gut feeling here but I'd say we are probably within 75 miles of the final solution right now.
