Stebo Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Toledo already reporting snow, shouldn't be much longer for DTW to start reporting, I am expecting it to be snowing here by 2:30-3:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centriptic Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 ? Theyre forecasting a foot. Surely they'll up amounts with the morning package. If you want play by play, the NWS is the wrong place to look. Thats what this board is for. That's why I'm here I guess I just assume if there's a warning in place, the staff would be uber-enthralled to give updates on the situation. Many people look to them for updates, once the warning is issued, and with today's fast-paced world expect a frequent update. Oh well, trend looks good here in MBY...

cyclone77 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 NSSL WRF looking pretty juicy. Dropping pockets of 30-35mm (1.18-1.37") of precip from eastern IA, through northern IL, and through northern IN. This is only out 26hrs, so much more to come for the peeps out east.

How good is that model when it comes to snow/precip amounts? It tends to do excellent with severe weather, even with placement of individual storms/supercells at times.

It tends to do excellent with severe weather, even with placement of individual storms/supercells at times. It's done pretty well in the past from what I've seen. If anything maybe even a touch on the conservative side, but I don't follow it as much as other guidance this time of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an impressive storm system this turned out to be. I remember 3-4 days ago this was looking like a great spread the wealth 2-4" type storm for many of us, and then things just started/kept escalating.

Someone, I don't remember who, said (tongue-in-cheek, presumably) about thee days ago that GHD started out as a modest event in the same timeframe too. I wasn't out here yet for that so I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCNYILWX Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Definitely... Around 1.30" QPF for ORD this run. Surface low takes the ideal track across IND for heavy snows through the heart of the Chicago metro.Edit: Also 40-50 kt gusts for parts of northern IL at 00z tomorrow.
