Natester Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Still freezing raining here. Not quite a tenth of an inch of ice accumulation, though. Should change over to snow in a couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelmantis Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 First bit of pouring rain here... Crazy... The whole idea of 1-2 inches of rain, then 3-6 inches of snow, then it all freezing just amazes me... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think the glazing will be very efficient unless the temp drops a few more degrees. High rates are slowing it down as well. I'm actually not worried at all about losing power, etc. New triple R shows about 1/4" precip falling as all snow after 22z tomorrow for here/QC. Looks like most of the snow will fall after dark per usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like most of the snow will fall after dark per usual. High rates is what slowed ice accretion here. Just a bit of a glazing on everything with icicles hanging down. Lucked out here. Had we got over a tenth of an inch of ice, then it would have been a different story (potential power outages due to the wind). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 At 8:05 pm CST, the first area of moderate to heavy rain was pushing toward Joliet. Over the next 1-2 hours, moderate to heavy rain will move into the Chicago area. By the time the storm ends, Chicago will likely have picked up a 2-day precipitation total of 1.50"-3.00". There have been only 6 cases in January where 2-day precipitation came to 2.00" or more. Records go back to 1871. Detroit will likely see its heaviest one and two-day total on record. The January daily record is 1.76", which fell on January 12, 1908. The January two-day record is 1.90", which was record on January 3-4, 1993. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck the rest of tonight and round 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Looking at the 3km NAM, I'm not a big fan of the big wall of convection from the gulf up to Indiana tomorrow, with the deformation zone sort of detached and hanging back to the west. Hoping the models aren't overdoing the 2nd wave, as it looks like it may be quite moisture starved. Think we've seen this sort of scenario before where the detached deformation zone really underperforms. Hope that isn't the case with this system.. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
