Powerball Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 14 hours ago, Powerball said: BTW, I'm sticking with my preliminary call as final. Widespread 10-15" with isolated higher amounts*. *Besides the areas on the northern and southern edge getting screwed by slight shifts, there could also be a narrow area from far NE Indiana / far NW Ohio into the Detroit area and SW Ontario that gets slightly lower amounts as the better forcing for the 1st round sets up just NW of there and the better forcing for the 2nd round sets up just SE of there. 00z models really started to show what's bolded... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortex Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Kinda surprised how quickly it’s sticking after the 40s and rain today. Obviously didn’t affect ground temps too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalfy Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Maples' rough estimate of changeover- Jefferson, MO and metro. 1-4am sounds right and earlier than Canadian guidance by 10-12 critical hours. I don't think I'll be able to sleep monitoring this haha: .AVIATION... (For the 06z TAFs through 06z Wednesday Night) Issued at 1040 PM CST Tue Feb 1 2022 A high impact winter storm is imminent with a broad area of precipitation stretching from central Illinois southwestward through a large portion Missouri. Rain transitioned to all snow at KUIN around 02z this evening with the transition affecting KCOU between 03z and 04z. Following shortly behind will be KJEF around the release of this update. Metro terminals will likely follow between 07z and 10z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 It's looking like Detroit is going to take forever to change over. Nothing like a massive change less than 12 hours before a storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 00Z Euro keeps getting drier. Its not a lack of overlapping. Im wondering where these 2-3 in Pwats that forecasters were worried about a couple days ago are. There was strong wording about potential flooding to our south. I know its a bit early but meso is barely showing 1 in coming in from the gulf. The upslope moisture occurring seems to be from tapping into the Pac jet, 700mb quite saturated. I get a weaker surface reflection in part 2 but complete fizzle? Im probably wrong but something fishy seems to be going on lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently 30/20 at DPA.Looks like the banding push extending back to far southeast IA is and should fill in places currently just northwest of the heavier band over the metro. Tilt 2 on KLOT almost completely filled in. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
