Im weirdly in the same boat. Normally id be excited but just not excited for this storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be better to follow the HRRR or the Nam for timing?? You’re better off going to the Ohio thread for that.

Jackstraw Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 850 freezing line is outrunning the surface freezing level fairly quickly, been posted and some AFD's commenting on that. Surface VTM for what its worth is setting up pretty much where most models have been forecasting highest totals for the last 36 hours. Think part 1 could overperform if it can hold on to the 700mb moisture for any length of time. Part 2 is beginning to somewhat amp up with >1 PWATS finally moving N of TN valley. Just my armchair take. I used to get chastised for posting HRRR and RAP snow maps but they seem to be all the rage now lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Columbus is actually looking to catch Toronto haha (Chicago has bigger metro though I think) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columbus can’t be excluded from this trend. To be fair, Columbus is bucking the trend of most Midwest metros (not named Indianapolis or Minneapolis) and is growing at a modest clip. But at the end of the day, it's still just a glorified college town that happens to also be a state capital and the home of Wendy's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Cloudy with a stiff northwest breeze here. Looks like maybe a shot at some light snow later tonight depending on which model you look at. Could get up to an inch or two if we get really lucky, but a complete shutout is entirely possible.
