iluvsnow Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 This looks to be the last throws of winter for most of the sub-forum for a while...at least well into the holidays. For we southern forum'ers....we at least get a gift we'll have to cherish for the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxman_ind Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 4 hours ago, snowlover2 said: It could be because this is happening with 2 waves over a 24 hour period. If they are like ILN who's criteria(in part) is 8" in 24 hours, then it won't meet the criteria. Yes, this. The event is happening over a 36 hour period. Also, when issuing a warning (ignoring impacts for a moment) the average has to be 6". So 4-6" is an average of 5" which would be advisory. (Of course impacts could change things).

Jim Martin Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Watching the radar trends closely. Noticing that the area of snow is farther north and larger in size than expected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCNYILWX Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Thinking latest RAP/HRRR might be onto something with getting some accums farther north based off radar and observational trends over IA and western into west central IL. Amounts on north fringe might be a bit overdone but could see 1" up to a bit north of I-80 corridor.

Noticing that the area of snow is farther north and larger in size than expected. Noticed that also. Its good timing for the I70 crew being at night. Points S and SW were forecast with higher storm total amounts due to this first wave but from the looks of things back west as you said there could be a larger swath of initial amounts especially north. If can stay out of any warm nose with the second one tomorrow could see some nice spread the wealth amounts through central IL, IN and even into Central and NE OH and even some points north. Id say IF that happens the Canuk scored a coup as its been very consistent in such a scenario over the last 48 hours or so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Looking back into IL think parts of KLOT and KIWX areas could get a bit of a surprise by early am. Only issue right now is dry air but that seems to be slowly eroding. Just started dropping some floaters here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckster2012 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Picked up a quick 2" down here in Jennings County. Light-moderate snow now. Might get 1 more inch. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Starting to really pick up here. Medium to fine dendrites but lots with a light SE breeze. That stronger band that was in S IN is just south. Guessing 1/2 inch in the last 30 - 45 min. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riding the op euro usually works out. Euro was first to tease with Big Dog event at d6. Then it calmed down. It is an event fwiw, just not ours. This Nov-Dec will end up worse than last year.

Already ahead of last year here, last year Detroit had 6.7" in November and 0.5" and December. This year DTW had 9.5" in November and 0.8" so far and December. What an odd quirk, this is 4 times in the last 6 years snowy November's give way to low snow December's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As history can tell you, Nino December's don't tend to do well after a snowy and cold November. Overall, most Nino winters are usually rockin' by Jan-Feb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indystorm Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 3 inches of snow at IND as of 8:45 p.m. Looking wintry out there. And roads are a mess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just came back in from a ride. 3 here and still going. Yep theyre a mess. Ill never understand why they plow all the way to the freezing pavement, expose liquid water to sub freezing air, and take away 2 or 3 inches of snow you can use for traction (for that matter 4 or 5) Geez leave me some snow to grab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Would call it a higher end light snow right now. Light coating on all surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Think the Canuk pulled a coup at least with this first wave and distribution. See how the defo sets up tomorrow evening.

cyclone77 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Looks like about a half inch as the snow begins to wind down. Enough to get us over the 10" mark for the season so there's that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckster2012 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 3.5" for me, now turned to light Frz rn. At least I've got 7" for the season now even if short lived both times.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Up over 4 here. Back to finer dendrites but still coming at a good clip. Points north reporting 4.5 to 5 just noticed KIWX issued a WWA. Now the 00Z models are hinting at another 4-6 possible tomorrow evening into Tues. along I70. Throw another 4 on top of what I have and I'm happy till Friday lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
