buckeye Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Anyways, fascinating battle shaping up between the deep cold in the north and warmth/wet in the south. Might be fun, if things align... if it pans out....this is a classic setup for how the Ohio river valley gets clocked. As you said, lots of moving parts. PV placement, confluence, slp strength...the usual fragile pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Apparently the media hype for 16" has already started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersnow12 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Yeah a TV met for WGN posted the 6z GFS amounts on his twitter. So stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Apparently the media hype for 16" has already started. At Chicago WX: EDIT: early on it hits IA and southern WI (84 to 96 hours). Lots of moving parts. Isn't that the truth! 1.25" for you off of the Twisterdata maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Looks set to be yet another example of places all around Toronto getting big snows while we get next to nothing. Judging from the 12z GFS, all three of the systems next week just miss us to the south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchaumburgStormer Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Following seasonal trends, cut the lower end of qpf by a third to give something realistic. Gonna throw an Alek like "way too early" call of 5.6" at ORD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 In the end the ratio always ends up being around 8:1 after settling. What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KokomoWX Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 GHD like [expletive] totals for LAF, verbatim on the 12z GFS. I hope it's wrong on that. Cobb offers me about 9.5 plus some sleet. Indy is pretty much all ice at over an inch. Really ugly for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 15-17:1 looks like a good starting off point for Chicagoland 60 straight hours of pixie dust delivering 12"+ that settles to 4" within a day winter 2013/2014, never forget 60hrs of pixie dust with 15-17:1 ratios.

Stebo Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 What? He means after 3 days higher ratio snows settle to 8:1 ratios, not that it matters any to the discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersnow12 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Euro drops just shy of .40" liquid here between Friday night and Sunday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCNYILWX Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 For eastern IA, southern WI and northwest IN, the Euro puts its eggs in the Friday and Saturday-Saturday night basket. Still pretty good here, about 0.4" liquid and Saturday looks like it would be high ratio fluff with some potential for lake enhancement. Probably 4-6" sort of deal in the LOT CWA and eastern IA, southern WI between Friday and Saturday. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
