People still posting kuchera models for the sole reason the totals are always higher I imagine. Love this site lol

That's not correct. With storms that have temp problems, Kuchera is the lowest. Sometimes by several magnitudes. Kuchera uses modeled ratios and ground/air temps in the calculation. It's useful. Very. If you use it right and not just rip and read 

Eta: this storm has all the ingredients for 10:1+. Our area usually maxes at 15:1 no matter what the models say. But in this case, the column is solid top to bottom and we're exclusively on the cold side of the storm (for now). It's completely reasonable in this case to assume a minimum of 10:1. How much qpf falls is a different disco

HRRR has a realistic scenario where there is a relative min east of the mountains and before the low strengthens.

Ha, if that happened after Monday's debacle, I'd have to step away for a bit. Just give me some decent snow so I can take the kids sledding this weekend.

That's some turd in the punchbowl stuff right there....next time don't post until you've had your coffee

Unfortunately, this is how these storms often break for my yard so pretty reasonable outcome. You generally always do better in da burg thanjust west of 95 burbs. Every once in a blue the enhanced stripe to the east helps me out but more often than not... outside looking in with best totals on these deals

Even that particular model run is still 1-3" for most so in line i think the scale throws off perception a bit. It does highlight the skip nature of these events though but all of the other models showed it as well just not as drastically because of the dull grey color on this one. HRRR at 45 though...i'm hugging the euro and canada for now
