Geoboy645 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 2 hours ago, madwx said: I know I’m getting about 3” tonight but tomorrow could be 8” or 0” and i have no idea which way we’re headed Yeah I am worried about tomorrow sneaking up on people because of the uncertainty. Tonight alone could be an impactful hit because of the timing of max rates during rush hour. But tomorrow is so up in the air this far out which is insane. And if some of the higher solutions verify for us, we'd be talking potentially a foot combined between the two snows on top of the stuff from Wednesday. That's a major storm.

Powerball Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 12z UKMET has taken a step back from the amped runs yesterday. It looks more like the GGEM now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the models are struggling with the track as the low strengthens. usually when you have a deepening low like this it goes more North, like the gfs. Canadian/ukmet kinda shunt it east. Definitly delicate and bust potential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 1 hour ago, Stevo6899 said: Meanwhile DTX has a snow map out already with three to four inches for the whole area through the weekend. Kind of surprised they even threw out totals considering the vast differences in the models. The last storm the GFS was right and had a weaker storm while the euro was wrong and had a stronger storm. Both portraying the opposite this go around. I'd hate to be the nws. Might need to read that again. 3-4" through 8PM Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radtechwxman Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 That euro run was trash. Crazy we are so close to event and models all over the place. How did euro do with last storm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimillman Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 It’s basically looking like 1-2” with the WAA and then probably another inch of mood flakes + lake influence on Saturday. Fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safe route to go really I agree this is how it should be done too. The 500 mb Vorticity is not closing off. If it did than the strength of this system would be relatively more of a slam dunk!! This will be a lot more now casting event as strength and orientation of the Vorticities are actualized coming out of the Rockies into the MW. I think the more traditional closed off systems are a bit easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Not a single 6z EPS member was 'amped' for outside of MI. The number of 'amped' GEFS members are becoming less as of 12z. If you get my jive on the overall look of things... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I want the NAM and other SR models that amp this to the NW to be right, it still feels tenuous at best NW of Saginaw Bay line where I'm at.

Josh and the deep winter-ites are good with the nickel and dimers, but for most here, they want quality events. Personally, I'd prefer summer year-round, but do have a soft spot for chasing dogs in the winter. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
