Have never really bought in on some of the better 3-4" totals so if that happens I'll be pleasantly surprised. More important is the worm may have turned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNiño Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 MKE was only calling for an inch in my area but have recently revised it to 3-4in. I’ll take it. Snow is spreading into southern WI late this morning, pretty much right on track. Upstream visibilities are dropping down to a mile or less in eastern Iowa and parts of IL and we can expect that to reach southern WI by noon and persist into the mid afternoon. We will lose ice crystals from south to north, so a period of drizzle/freezing drizzle will be possible before all the precip ends. Fog still expected this evening before stronger northwest winds kick in after midnight. As for snowfall amounts, I increased them a little for all of southern WI. Increased snow ratios toward 11:1 inland from Lake Michigan instead of the 9:1 we had going. This seems justified given the strong frontogenesis and high omega, along with a deep layer of below-freezing temps. This is more inline with Cobb technique, and RAP/NAM model snow ratios. This all puts south central WI more solidly in the 3-4" range for snowfall totals. Cronce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frog Town Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 This thing just looks juiced on radar. Nice storms/heavy rain returns wrapping into the cold air. I like it, albeit short lived. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Great to see some action for you guys. Have had 2 really big snows with some in between. No point in starting threads for mine, cause I'd be the only one posting in it. LOL That being said, light-mod snows knocking on my door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been plenty of big events in the region this season, but they've been up north where we have few posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
