TugHillMatt Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I guess it's yet another storm missing south, what's new in the news? Next storm middle of next week will probably be a miss just north lol. If that happens, I'll be lighting up the complaint thread. Yep! I just posted a similar response in the complaint thread. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Where this should of been. storm is still 84hrs out and you're already writing it off as usual Should be locked and loaded locally now that I have my WisconsinWX downplay for the storm. Nah...he's just posting in response to what has been the general trend over the past 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 The 12z NAM came back south from the 00z run. But that said, for DTW, it's one of the drier members (if not the driest) on the 09s SREF plumes, which shows a mean of 3.5" through Sunday evening (many of the members have more snow beyond that).

Chicago WX Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 12z GFS a little south and a bit drier versus the 0z run. Seems like in general, models have been fairly consistent on QPF totals somewhere in the 0.30-0.60" range for central IN. Still a ways to go of course...

Seems like in general, models have been fairly consistent on QPF totals somewhere in the 0.30-0.60" range for central IN. Still a ways to go of course... 12z is a few hours slower too. Ever since GHD II, south/suppressed has been the way to go. Initial conditions are hard for the models to digest - it's just been a sustained deep trough that's pretty far away from climo. This initial wave is going to be too weak to really change the pattern. I have a flight Sun. AM out of DTW too, so I'm all for suppression on this one (sorry guys). Rooting for the I-70 corridor here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooting for the I-70 corridor here. Honestly, I'm hoping this one goes south as well. That should leave Michigan in a better position for the midweek storm, which I personally feel has more potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like in general, models have been fairly consistent on QPF totals somewhere in the 0.30-0.60" range for central IN.

Chicago WX Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 3-6" seems like a fairly reasonable early expectation, with some upside potential. I think it's a good range at the moment.

geddyweather Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I think it's a good range at the moment. Really, only the GGEM doesn't like us for that... Same here. GGEM seems to be the outcast at the moment, thumping southern OH and Nrn KY and giving everyone else 1-3" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 12z Euro remains consistent with 0.60" total QPF for LAF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 15z SREF plumes aren't that impressive for LAF...I mean, some good ones mixed in but a number of relative clunkers. The mean has 3.4" of snow on .49" precip, which is a ratio of about 7:1. Surface temps could become borderline during the day on Sunday but an event average ratio of 7:1? I don't think so... barring a fairly substantial north shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 IND thinking 5-7" far north HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO BRING COLD BUT QUIET WEATHER FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY AS IT MOVES TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THEN ALL MODELS SPREAD PRECIPITATION ACROSS OUR REGION LATER SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING AS A UPPER DISTURBANCE MOVES ACROSS OUR REGION. LOW LEVEL THICKNESS INDICATE ALL SNOW OVER NORTHERN SECTIONS...WHILE SOUTHERN SECTIONS MAY START OUT AS SNOW AND THEN CHANGE TO RAIN SUNDAY. THERE MAY ALSO BE A PERIOD OF FREEZING RAIN DURING THIS CHANGE OVER. WENT CLOSE TO HPC SNOW AMOUNTS WHICH INDICATED 5 TO 7 INCHES FAR NORTH TO MAYBE AN INCH OR TWO SOUTH. THE NAM INDICATED PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE OVER BY SUNDAY EVENING...WHILE THE GFS WAS ALMOST 12 HOURS LATER IN ENDING PRECIPITATION. WENT WITH A BLEND WITH PRECIPITATION ENDING MOST AREAS BY LATE SUNDAY EVENING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbertfly Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 3.6 in my hourly spread out over 24hr...pretty much right around my expectations for this event at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Yeah don't see more then 2-3" with this event the way it's looking now. 3 shifts at ORD this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambana Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 3-6" I'll take it, refresh the snowpack, just amazing how we are heading into March, but yet it looks and feels like deep winter. I for one though, am hoping for a near average spring, I'm in the landscaping business, and last spring was terrible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Spoiler: 00z NAM won't change much from the previous runs. On the 21z SREF plumes, the NAM the driest member of them all here. However, the plume for DTW has gone up to 3.7". All of the members except the NAM range from roughly 2-6". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Looking like the KC to LAF to Cleveland line is pretty much locked in for the best snows with this wave. Looks like a nice 4-6"+ type event for you guys. For those of us to the north in northern IL/eastern IA it's looking like a few fluffy inches.

Northern_IN_Wx Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Looking good for 2-3 inches here...3-6 between here and Indy. Sort of boring...ready for spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The model stability with this thing is sort of eerie...very little shifting, at least compared to what we've seen before this winter. Perhaps because this setup is more straightforward and not really dependent on phasing. Almost feels like we're getting lulled to sleep with a last minute curveball forthcoming.

Chicago WX Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Ukmet looks good for a decent amount of the sub forum...anyone know what 00z euro showed? Ukie remains the wettest model with 1.10" QPF totals around the I-70 corridor. 0z Euro has a swath of 0.60" for the central parts of IL, IN, and OH.

Usually when you say something like this, it ends badly for us. So thanks. One caution flag is the SREF. Every run as we get closer, gets warmer (more rain getting involved). 9z run with another tick warm...IND only gets 1.9" snow on 0.62" QPF...LAF 3.4" on 0.64" QPF...FWA 4.7" on 0.70" QPF Either it's nuts...or pulling the coup.
