cyclone77 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The GFS and Euro have been showing this wave for several runs now. It doesn't look like some of the potent/dynamic systems we've seen as of late, but it looks like it could lay down several inches of fresh powder from Iowa points east. Still 90+hrs out, so let's see what kind of shenanigans the models pull with this one lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ams30721us Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 In all seriousness, it does look like a decent setup for high-end advisory/low end warning criteria event. A nice west to east slider. Of course, i'm trying to reach the top snowiest winter and record coldest temperatures record in the same season at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 Unfortunately all of the 00z guidance took a step back with this system. Hopefully things trend back in the other direction with tomorrow's runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 ^ That's a constructive post. Thanks for the contribution. 06z GFS improved quite a bit compared to the 00z, and drops 0.3-0.5" of precip over parts of Iowa into northwest IL/southern WI. DVN mentioned LSRs north of 15:1, so whatever falls should fluff up nicely. Obviously at this point Iowa looks like it has the best shot at the most precip, but hopefully it's a case where the models are weakening the system a bit too quick for areas further east. Still some time to see how this evolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still some time to see how this evolves. After suffering through all this winter weather recently, and sitting at 52.4" for the season, I'm all about getting a quick 17.4" more fluffy inches to have the all-time snowiest winter ever, along with the coldest temperature ever in the same season! Ha...So with that being said if we can land a quick 4-5" here, that would really help increase the chances of this actually occurring! I do like the faster start time, as models seem to have sped the system up a bit, with more of a nighttime/early Sunday morning event, locally.

Radtechwxman Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Another one bites the dust. Lol. Seems like the trend lately is to look good in the long range and start the downward spiral in the medium range.

RCNYILWX Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Nice improvement by the NAM tonight, especially in eastern IA/QCA. Would be cool if the blind GFS/FV3 squirrel finally found a nut.Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me those always seem like they have a chance to over-perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 The 00z Euro did come back southeast with the heart of the snow, so a wide swath of Iowa gets a solid 3-6". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baum Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 To bad it weakens a bit as it comes east. Hopefully Cyclones idea that sometimes these long duration events overperform comes to fruition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppsRunner Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Looks pretty good out here for now. Won't be a huge storm by any means but hoping to eclipse the 4" mark this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCNYILWX Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Models have come into good agreement on a long duration 2-4" event for much of northern IL, with possibility of some minor additional LES accums late Sunday night into Monday morning. Looks good for 3-6" in eastern IA/QCA. Hopefully as cyclone mentioned the long duration can help this to be an overperformer.
