TheWeatherPimp Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Lake effect band has made its way all the way down into Western Ohio and we have seen moderate snow here this morning with an additional 3/4" of quick accumulation in the past 1.5 hours.

A-L-E-K Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Euro looks to be hinting at an interesting long range if that monster in the sw at 168 is to be believed. Evening flurries appear on track, so all is good there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 That band of snow is expanding nicely as it heads into western WI/northeast IA/N IL. Some folks may get a surprise 1/2-2" out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKE calling for .5 - 1.5, which sounds about right base on returns in that area. Overperformer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneyman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 NWS here is calling for 1-2 inches for tonight, so wouldn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overperformer Right now the a heavy band is expanding and intensifying in response to some pretty respectable 850/925 frontogenesis. Even the NAM has strong convergence along the front, but it is dry. We will have to see how far that feature translates E. Models are failing right now. Dropped a good 2" on the Twin Cities--and it has since expanded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOT not expecting much more than flurries 18z update MEANWHILE...A WEAK MID-LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREALATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE DYNAMICS WITH THIS SYSTEM ARE WEAK AT BEST AND WILL...FOR THE MOST PART...REMAIN IN WI. IN ADDITION...BUFKIT SOUNDINGS INDICATE A GOOD AMOUNT DRY AIR IN THE LOWER LEVELS TO OVERCOME. THEREFORE...I DO NOT EXPECT MORE THAN A FEW FLURRIES TONIGHT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneyman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 LSE is at like 14 degrees right now, crazy. Snow keeps dying off as it gets here, probably have to wait for the main band in the LSE area. MKE still has 1-2 inches here for tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstormcanuck Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Here is to SSC reaching 30" by the end of the month. If things go right, it's possible by the end of next week. Get your paypal accounts ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 frankthetank is. LOT not expecting much more than flurries 18z update LOL I just looked at that map. Never even heard of FranktheTank. Yeah dry air will be an issue--I think that is why the models are so dry. Nonetheless, wherever that band sets up folks may get some surprise snow showers. All guidance kills the low level front/convergence as it pushes E into Chicagoloand, but we will see. Models are in fail mode now--and that mid level impulse is progged to continue E which may support it a while longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moneyman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 He said he would send like 20 dollars to the first 5 people that wanted to do a bet. He said that if his area receives more then 30 inches on the season, he would send the first 5 people, 20 dollars via paypal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowstormcanuck Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I must have missed something here? Last week when the models sucked and I was stuck on 9" for the season I went on a pms mini-rant about how I wouldn't get to 30" for the season. I was so confident in that claim that I promised the 5 members who posted after my rant 20 bucks each if I miraculously pulled off 30". Since then I've received 14" in 6 days.
