hawkeye_wx Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 And now the NAM is drying up the snow for east-central Iowa just as badly as the Euro and HRRR. For the last few days it has been all about how far north or south it would track. I did not expect to have to worry about the precip shield crapping out this far west. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlcater Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 If the 00z runs continue the trend that has been evident since 00z last night, CR/IC might consider themselves lucky to see 6-7”. The drying has been particularly bad in E IA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natester Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Calling it, CR only gets 3-4 inches of snow from this while IC gets 5-6 inches. Chicago doesn't get much either due to the drying. At least we had the December 29, 2020 dumping of 8 inches here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Panic in Iowa. And they’ll all still pull 6”+ easily. LOT has 1-2” total here. Thought that might have been a bit of a lowball, but I can see it. Shouldn’t have to go much farther north to see a good increase though. At least the ground will be white again for a couple of days. That’s a win this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILSNOW Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Somebody reach out to Ricky and tell him the American Weather board thinks that he should cxl the WSW. The KLOT area will prolly get 4-8 inches which we havent had in a long time and some are ready to cxl the storm. Folks we all want the snow and no its not going to be the big one advertised a few days ago, but maybe the drying on the models stops , maybe they get wetter again who knows lets see how it plays out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Based on the posts on this page, I dont think I want to read the last several pages of this thread lol. Models up to their usual shenanigans. Todays burst of snow overperformed for some in the Detroit area (0.6" here but 2-3" in a very narrow band) and I think the main storm will also have some bands in it, but where they end up, who knows. Ill say 2-4" for SE MI with locally higher amts possible. As for Chicago, you wont be seeing 10-20" but try and enjoy the snowstorm. Just a month ago you guys would have killed for a snow shower. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogget Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 LOL...might snow in Wisconsin! //...Potential for Accumulating Snow Monday Evening ThroughTuesday... There is a potential for light to moderate accumulating snow starting Monday evening through Tuesday, mainly across southern Wisconsin. East to northeast winds will be gusty during this time as well, which could cause concerns for blowing and drifting snow. Lake enhanced snowfall is also possible for Racine and Kenosha counties during this time period. There is still a fair amount of uncertainty with snow totals for this system, so make sure to stay up to date with the latest forecast.// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
