Euro and CMC more onto it than the GFS or NAM. Neither even really show it until a hint of it on their 18z runs today. Perhaps the 0z runs tonight will start to catch it. 12z Euro has 0.06" at CVG which may be good for an inch of snow. Best we can do with this pattern it seems lol We will have to watch Thursday to see if a bit more moisture gets involved last second... Our only hope is that this 1st wave overproduces. Let's hope it's a trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachLB Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 That storm is so far south on the 00z GFS Florida pan handel folks may need winter jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 We'll see if we can pull off a last minute coupe to bring that wave tomorrow/Friday a bit further north and wetter. 12z NAM still has axis of heaviest or heaviest across the river valley but the sref mean shows the axis right thru central Ohio. One thing we have going for us is we tend to do better than expected with these piddly west to east waves. It's just the big ones we can never reel in.

osubrett2 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Also, with temps in the teens when at the start and low-mid 20s during, ratios will be in our favor. Currently, ILN has .04" liquid to .7" snow, or 17-18:1 ratio. If we can top .1" liquid, we could be looking at 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowlover2 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 ILN issued a WWA along and south of I-70 for 2-4" of snow tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 This totally looks like the typical Athens snow event coming up. Nothing flashy, just a nice quick 2-3" and go home. Nothing up here. Maybe I should've considered grad school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking like we aren't going to score a coupe with this one. ILN will be lucky to hit the low end of an advisory. HRRR says widespread 1/2" to 2" across a large part of Ohio except the nw. Evenly distributed across the board with no 'axis' of heavier showing up to the south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeye Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 12z euro: 3" with a front-dump Monday-Tuesday, before it all changes to rain. And then about 8" next weekend. Of course that won't verify and the next weekend event looks 'odd'. But worth posting simply on the basis that it's the snowiest 10 day period the euro has shown for us all season. Sometimes when we finally find ourselves in front of a legitimate snowy period, it starts with these fantasy storms showing up, albeit too early. There's my glass half full for the day. Oh and radar is looking better so maybe 1-2" is still on the table after all. Ok enough of this optimistic stuff it makes my teeth hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osubrett2 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Roads are definitely a mess, left work early just to beat the madness. I have 1.5" IMBY currently. Can easily see another .5"-1.0". Before it's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
