TheWeatherPimp Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 The NAM extrapolated is a classic and prolonged freezing rain event for much of Central Indiana, something I've personally been worried about for days now. This has ice event written all over it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestMichigan Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I really hope GRR has to eat a little crow on this one. NAM says GRR is maybe back in business after watching is drift south for the last few days. Would like to see a few more models arrive at the same solution for my area, but someone somewhere is going to get a nice snowstorm out of this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabuckeyes Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Seems a bit over amped, which is a tendency sometimes. Time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimillman Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 For those of you on the southern edge, I’d hardly fret at the 84 hour NAM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Computer models are definitely full of issues, but DTW is in as good a spot as you could hope for on model consensus. Basically square in the middle of the heavy band on the GFS and euro ensembles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 These types of setups fascinate me. No 3 contour closed low at H5. Just a ton of moisture and good jet dynamics and you get the potential for snow in feet. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I mean is, don’t overreact to a model run it’s long range, notorious for over amped solutions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman33 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Going back to GHD II, it was the NAM that sniffed out the further north solution that ended up verifying. The Euro was south. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestMichigan Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 How many think the snow totals will come down as the event gets closer or will it stay with the ridiculously high numbers the models are showing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that DTW is sitting in a good spot for the front end snows and the main show and has a chance to see some of the higher totals. Im just happy theres something to track. Basically 3 months of no big dogs to track so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NW trend shall never be denied. Pretty soon we'll start hearing those on the southern end talk about an over correction and it will come back south.

I think it looks pretty good for multi-day totals in the 1-2 feet range. More a question of where. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine that is going to happen eventually.. totals are more inline at 10:1 while everyone keeps posting Kuchera ratios. How much will they come down is the question. Willing to bet someone will end up with a foot (maybe a little more) out of this before all is said and done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good many storms do end up coming Northwest but it is far from the guarantee it was. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant trust these models enough until within 36 hrs lol. Would prob fly home late tues night. Was thinking maybe even wed morning but not risking getting it cancelled since it looks like it may start wed morning. Airlines are weak nowadays, delta used to never cancel flights unless a blizzard. Now all it takes is a couple inches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several pieces to the puzzle. PV well north up in Canada, a disturbance currently cut off well offshore of California, lead waves coming onshore in BC/Pac NW, and then lastly another wave that will dive into the Pac NW from Alaska.
