Radtechwxman Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Nice band training along I74 corridor here. Snow is a little more granular at times with periods of big flakes. Hrrr increased icing potential here. I like that dews are much lower than temp now. May help keep temps from surging too quick above freezing later.

sbnwx85 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 HRRR keeps ticking up ice accumulation totals each run in N Indiana and SW Michigan. IWX extended the WWA further east, too. Might end up being a little bit more of an interesting night than I anticipated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around 13,000 ft over FFL there is a nice KDP signal for dendritic growth (KDP between 0.2 and 0.8). Not surprised it's coming down good in that area. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to go to western Missouri to find dews in the 30s, so yeah, evaporative cooling and increasing waa will be battling for a while until temps finally rise above 32. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I mainly come here because my wife & other family members generally hate the snow & big winter events. I enjoy being amongst like-minded people in regards to winter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
