janetjanet998 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 cloud tops are even cool on the infrared 12z HRRR seems too weak inland for the 13z time stamp and likely beyond need to watch out for any meso lows later that may keep the band going on its west flank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CANNOTDIVIDEBY0 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Had about 3-5 inches in West Ridge when I left for work this morning. Roads were completely cleared. Good work by the plow trucks. I had to travel 50 miles south (Lake shore drive to 90 to 57 to 80) for work today, where they got maybe 2 inches of snow and the roads are an unplowed mess. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madwx Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 2nd week of February looks cold, likely a less severe version of what occurred the second week of February last year. Good chance that some very cold air sneaks into the southern plains. After that the SE ridge starts to flex a bit more again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
