Wx 24/7 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 that stuff in far N OK north of Tulsa is intensifying. Noticed that as well... looks like this system may have one more punch. Roads here have become very slick and snow covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Waterboy Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 ok whats the word for next weekend? I love it Valerie! Spoken like a true addict. Since this snow just ended let's start looking ahead. I was thinking the exact same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NwWhiteOut Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 hasnt ended up here yet though it looks to soon....what was you guys predicted to get and wound up getting total? those who understand the models somewhat which one was more accurate? seems like the nam nailed it for up this way once it got into its time frame...at least on totals it did anyhow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was wrong on temps though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NwWhiteOut Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 eh we prolly have 1-2" NAM ended up being more correct. It was wrong on temps though. yea the temps were off with it but it always seems to do decent man once it gets into its timeslot on totals....got just a tad over 3" here. Nam predicted 3-4.....not to bad and its really neat looking out there im happy for a lil lol. Im curious on these weekend systems now? I see springfield keeps on talking about them in the writeups....doesnt sound serious but i guess u never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoWeatherguy Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Looks like 1.5 here so about what was expected. Bring on the next one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Too early to really speculate on next weekend since all the models diverge somewhat. They all have a system, but whether it is rain, snow, or where it's located is a big unknown right now. Tonights GFS does have a weak storm and dumps the Arctic air back down but it wouldn't be here until next Monday. Arkansas would have a better chance at that one it looks like.

Ozarkwx Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Round 2 has been a real non-event and Round 1 was at most an inch. But it was still enough to close school and make it a pain to get around. I actually find this kind of crap snowfall rather irritating. Not enough to really do something with or dress up the countryside in an attractive way, but enough to make it a pain to drive the hilly untreated roads and take a bite out of business for a few days. I think I am growing more fond of the spring storm that provides a quick 5-10" and is gone in a few days. OT - Did Oregon borrow those socks from a firehouse? No team could possibly win a title with that kind of color on their uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wx 24/7 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Since I have a snow day, it is now time to fret and ponder the weekend system. I will be curious to see if we warm up as fast as the models predict. Sometimes they have a hard time with temps. We shall see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wx 24/7 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 12z has the weekend system missing us north and south again... sound familiar? Meanwhile, the wind chill here is below zero. Glad I am inside today!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 12z has the weekend system missing us north and south again... sound familiar? Meanwhile, the wind chill here is below zero. Glad I am inside today!! yeah these weak waves are hard to time and with that Arctic air near here, they may be north or south of here. A couple of the GFS ensemble members do develop heavier precip near our area like P001, P009, P010 (see below). The GGEM has the 850 line north of us for most of the events. The Euro develops a stronger system on Day 6 (144) and keeps it developed. Looks like the track would be from NW TX east to NW Alabama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoWeatherguy Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Yeah hard to tell exactly where but the Euro has a look of potential out there days 6/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wx 24/7 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 my NWS is showing frz rain this weekend. Hmmm... NWS Tulsa being much more aggressive with the day 5-7 period than SGF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMo Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 my NWS is showing frz rain this weekend. They are going with the ECMWF of a faster frontal movement then light precip overriding it and causing freezing rain. Also, talk about a change on the 18z GFS.... This is ice storm worthy long range that won't happen. Also so much for the big warm up it was showing in the extended yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valerie Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 a local met said on fb that too much uncertainty still but to stay tuned. the forecast is also calling for snow on monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
