Baum Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 welp. I may have ended the SE trend with this thread: TO SUM UP THIS STORM, THE GREATEST POTENTIAL OF SEEING THE HIGHEST (4-8") OF SNOW LOOKS TO BE NORTH OF I-90, WITH LESSER SNOW AMOUNTS BUT AN INCREASING ICE POTENTIAL ALONG AND SOUTH OF THIS LINE. GIVEN THE RECENT FLUCTUATIONS IN THE MODEL PROGS OF THIS SYSTEM, THERE IS STILL A MODEST DEGREE OF SPREAD IN THIS FORECAST.- Lacrosse, WI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 06z NAM gives us about 18 straight hours of sleet, with it still going at the end of the run. Only about .2 of liquid equivalent accumulation so would be light overall better than freezing rain I'd say 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m actually happy for a rain event definitely better then ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a huge arctic push of cold air behind the first storm it may trend south like the others. Obviously not the only factor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roardog Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 It’s still 3 days or so away. The SE and weaker runs should start anytime. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Haven't looked into it too much but probably because recent runs seem to have trended toward a more robust sfc low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 This might be another ice jam producer on Tuesday but that's about it. Storm later in the week is the one to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natester Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 DVN AFD mentions possible ice storm on Tuesday. TUESDAY COULD BE MESSY, WITH A SCENARIO OF FREEZING RAIN AND RAIN CHANGING OVER TO SLEET AND THEN SNOW IN THE NORTHWEST. WITH THE SFC LOW, UPPER TROF MIGRATION AND POSSIBLE IN-WRAPPING DRY SLOT, MOST OF THE PRECIP WILL BE MOVING OUT TO THE NORTH/NORTHEAST BY TUE EVENING. CURRENT PROJECTIONS ARE THAT MOST OF THE DVN CWA MAY GET A RANGE OF 0.05 TO 0.18 INCH OF ICE, ALONG WITH SOME LIGHT SLEET ACCUMS AND UP TO A HALF INCH OF SNOW IN THE NORTHWESTERN CWA. BUT WILL HAVE TO WATCH IF THE WETTER AND MORE DEVELOPED/DEEPER SFC LOW MODELS VERIFY THAT WOULD PRODUCE HIGH ICE AMOUNTS, AND POSSIBLY QUICKER TOP-DOWN DYNAMICAL COOLING FOR HIGHER SNOW AMOUNTS TUE AFTERNOON ALONG AND NORTHWEST OF A IOWA CITY TO WEST OF DUBUQUE LINE. THE WETTER ECMWF EVEN IF IT HOLDS ON RAIN LONGER, MAY PRODUCE OVER A HALF INCH OF RAINFALL IN SPOTS ON FROZEN GROUND PRODUCING PONDING AND RUN-OFF. THE EURO WOULD ALSO PRODUCE A LOCALIZED SWATH OF HIGHER ICE AMOUNTS OF ICE STORM WARNING CRITERIA GENERALLY WEST OF A DUBUQUE TO ANAMOSA IA LINE. TUESDAY HIGH TEMPS A CHALLENGE WITH CLOUDS, PRECIP AND BOUNDARY MOVEMENT ALL AFFECTING VALUES, RANGES COULD BE FROM THE 20S NORTHWEST TO THE MID 40S SOUTHEAST.

Brian D Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 This what DLH is showing in their weather story boards today. North trend of snow axis setting up a swath of snow between the Twin Cities and DLH. Looking at a mix of synoptic, and LES for the head of the lake across the south shore. Gusty ENE to NE winds should make this a little interesting, but I'm not expecting much more than 3-6" here in town blowing all over the place. Depends on what the lake has to offer, overall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian D Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 The wild card for me is the lake ice situation. Quite a bit out there, but the middle of the lake is still open. With a long fetch expected from the ENE (pretty much the whole lake), that will bring in more moisture that will overrun the ice here on the west side. Essentially the lake forms its own WAA situation as the milder, moister air overruns the colder icy surface. That usually means I end up doing pretty well on the shore for LES than I would typically see when there is no, or limited ice. Even under this scenario, not expecting much anyway, like I stated above. But the lake being what it is, anything can happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be catastrophic for the power grid if that verifies, especially with the 35-40 mph wind gusts Tuesday afternoon. Good news here is that the euro and the UKMET have Cedar Rapids above freezing when the main show starts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Looks like a nice long duration snowstorm in the UP. I will be in a cabin in the Hiawatha national forest. That will be my 3rd 6"+ snowstorm in 3 weeks! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwx Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 would do anything to avoid that euro solution in terms of freezing rain. The GFS still has lower precip amounts and more sleet in the area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
