Soaker with some north edge snow. Posted the EURO snowfall map in the winter thread.

 

It's a 2 wave system really. First comes on the 23rd, then the 24th into early the 25th.

 

Total snowfall through the 25th.

The potential for significant mixing through/north of the GTA is beginning to gain some support on the globals. The EC/EPS/GEFS and now the GFS have something notable.

 

Basically going to see a CO low track ENE into the plains with a strong high across Que allowing QPF north of the WF to stay frozen. Where this zone sets up may take a while to pinpoint.

Kind of looks like the first week of April in 2003. Below freezing temps and frozen precip in the GTA and 70s south of the warm front.

Last night's 00z UKMET is similar as well. Today's 12z GFS gives a significant dump of snow for the GTA during the day Wednesday before changing to sleet/freezing rain overnight into Thursday.

Gonna be interesting. Was planning on making the trek back to Toronto for the Easter Weekend late on Wednesday.

1" liquid equivalent. Looks like a typical SN-PL-ZR-RN progression. ZR is more dominant than the other p-types on this run.

 

Thanks! Colder look is somewhat novel so I won't get too excited at this point. Plus, climo is definitely working against us although it's not impossible to do snow/ice this late in the season (March 23, 2011, April 3-5, 2003 as some recent-ish examples).

Throw in April 2013. That was mostly ZR IIRC.

EURO a big hit for Iowa, southern WI, northern IL, lower MI this run. South and colder this run.

 

Storms starts in 90 hours.

Holy Toledo! 30" for Milwaukee!

Holy smokes, LOL. I agree that it most likely will be a big dog. Only in 2016 would the only "big dog" be in spring. 

 

Here's the entire CONUS for anyone who lives outside of the region posted!
