JLN - Approx .20 ice (surface below frz and close at 850), then 850's crash and another 1.10 falls. A lot of that would be snow is my guess.

TUL - 1.50 all snow. Yeah thats what its showing!

OKC - around .15 as temps are marginal but then another .85 all snow.

FAY - .50 with questionalbe temps. 850's look supportive but quest on thickness. Another .15 snow.

SGF - .10 ice, .45 as 850's fall below -0-, then another .50 that would be all snow.

Thanks...wow. That's quite a cutoff. My guess is it lifts precip farther north in time instead of S-E?

OMG!!! Euro and GFS (BUFKIT) both show that for my area lol... GFS (GRIB) shows half of it as sleet though. The difference is that BUFKIT is station outputs that are corrected according to local differences in climate, whereas GRIB is an uncorrected interpolation from points roughly 30-40 miles away from each other (even farther than that if you are looking at those NCEP maps). FWIW, the GFS BUFKIT shows 24.2" on Cobb... can anyone get the snow depth map and give me a rough number from the Euro? I'm not asking you to post the map; I know you're not allowed to do that... I just want a number from eyeballing it.

Also, can you give me the peak 10m wind (not gust) for TUL?

You rock.

If you wouldn't mind taking a glance at the QPF map, where does it start really dropping off on the western edge in OK? Is it along I-35 like the GFS, or more west like the NAM?

No prob. For now all I have is the extracted data on AccuWx. If you'll give me some of the station ID's west of you I will pull them up. Sorry I dont know many out that way

OK, but when you do get the maps, can you eyeball and see the peak snow depth for me? Also does the station data include 10m wind? If so, what is the highest value for KTUL?

Lawton .63 mostly snow. Starts out with around .15 ice.

Perfect, thanks. Sounds like it's a bit more generous to the W of I-35 than the GFS, then. I'm just trying to figure out how much danger we're in of being dryslotted or otherwise screwed by being too far W if the low waits a little longer to start deepening.

OK... then what's the minimum temp in the entire period through 240? And what's this I hear about another system from the left-behind energy?

Not sure, it looks like it would be a Gulf storm but the 500 may go over us. Then at 216 it looks like there's another kicking out of the SW.

Prolly should just concentrate on this one, lol

Concern is growing at SGF:

CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING THAT A WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT PORTIONS

OF THE CENTRAL U.S. INCLUDING THE MISSOURI OZARKS AND SOUTHEAST

KANSAS EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE LATEST MODEL RUNS FROM THIS MORNING

ARE CONVERGING ON A SOLUTION THAT DEPICTS THE POTENTIAL FOR

SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS OF SNOW...SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN. WHILE

THE DETAILS ON PRECIPITATION TYPE AND AMOUNTS REMAIN UNCERTAIN...THE

SYNOPTIC SCALE PATTERN FAVORS THE POTENTIAL OF A SIGNIFICANT

WINTER STORM MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. MORE DETAILS COMING

IN THE NEXT DISCUSSION. ALSO REFER TO THE LATEST SPECIAL WEATHER

STATEMENT FOR MORE INFORMATION.

I just came to post that. And HPC is going 1/2 UKMET, 1/2 ECMWF for preferred models.

71 degrees in Tulsa, 70ish here. You know something big is coming.

TSA is getting bullish calling for " Major Winter Storm " From TSA HWO:

A MAJOR WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT OUR AREA MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.

PRECIPITATION WILL BE HEAVY FROM THIS STORM. MODEL CONSENSUS PROJECTS

CONSIDERABLE SNOWFALL FROM ABOUT INTERSTATE 44 NORTH. FAR SOUTHEAST

OKLAHOMA MAY ESCAPE WITH PRECIPITATION FALLING PRIMARILY AS RAIN BEFORE

TRANSITIONING TO FREEZING RAIN..SLEET AND ENDING AS LIGHT SNOW. THE AREA

GENERALLY BETWEEN INTERSTATE 44 AND FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...AND ALL OF

NORTHWEST ARKANSAS...WILL LIKLEY SEE A HEAVY MIX OF WINTRY PRECIPITATION.

IN THAT AREA...A LIKELY SCENARIO WOULD BE FOR A PERIOD OF FREEZING RAIN...

MIXING WITH...THEN CHANGING TO HEAVY SLEET...THEN EVENTUALLY ENDING AS

A PERIOD OF SNOW. ALL THIS WILL OCCUR AS NORTH WINDS INCREASE TO 20 MILES

AN HOUR OR MORE.

SHOULD THIS SITUATION BECOME MORE OF A FREEZING RAIN EVENT...THAN A HEAVY

SNOW / SLEET EVENT...MAJOR POWER INTERUPTIONS WOULD BE LIKELY.

FRIGID WEATHER WILL TRAIL THE WINTER STORM...LASTING THROUGH THE END OF

THE WORK WEEK.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...

POWER OUTAGES CAN BE EXPECTED.

That would put me in stupid PL.
