JoMo Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Waiting on the 2nd piece of the storm down here. So far nothing much other than freezing drizzle which has coated everything with a nice shiny glaze as it is 25 degrees out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Solid overcast in the process of thickening and lowering here. Not expecting anything other than maybe a dusting here. Good to see St Louis ripping. All you guys to the south and east enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Global_Warmer Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Have 1.50-1.75 inches with meso band moving in.... NWS upped me to 7.0 inches. becuase RUC has 3-4 the next 4 hours here. and then 1-3 more with the 2nd wave. which it has a stronger phased system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilly84 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 STJ energy that isn't going to phase. It was the energy the NAM tried to develope during that one run and GGEM kept on trying and take up the coastal plain. But instead of phasing, it will get crushed out to sea behind the first wave, as the northern stream dominates the flow. As Baro said, a waste of energy. Maybe so, but you like make it a necessity to disagree about everything lol.. The storm is overperforming in many locations. Euro would be a good 5-6" hit in central OH.. Its pretty much down to nowcasting RUC and WRF.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 For the record, go look at a long radar loop, snow is definitely backbuilding in KS huge difference in what radar showed 3hrs ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrocks Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 For the record, go look at a long radar loop, snow is definitely backbuilding in KS huge difference in what radar showed 3hrs ago. I agree completely. Not sure what Angry is seeing. Kansas definitely has increased precip and so does Oklahoma, NW Arkansas, and SW Missouri. Hoping for a surprise here. About to hit the sack so I can watch the snow fall all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrocks Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 6z Nam. Heaviest snows fall across I-70 in Ohio There's no denying that the folks north of me will get the most snows. I know that for a fact that you all will do way better than me. I'm just hoping I can squeeze out 3-4 inches rather than 2-3 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilly84 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 STJ low. It isn't associated with the northern stream wave we are all waiting for. It is the storm that could have been. That is all fine and dandy, but to say snow isn't building back up in KS, MO etc is wrong regardless of it is associated with the northern stream or not.

titleist_03 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Up to 9 inches just across the river from STL. Biggest storm I remember. Still have heavy snow falling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BryanB Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 dilly84- Some forecasters were calling for 1 to 3 as early as Sunday and Monday. Last night they started calling for 5-9. So not a bad forecast for sure. Some areas in Kansas City did get up to 9-10 inches. Very odd storm for Kansas City. Normally WAA snow events do not produce very well in this area, but this one had us in the sweet spot this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to figure out if its over performing or not.. wondering how much it'll have left once it reaches here.. was hoping it'd stay strong, but appears on models that it will weaken some before reaching here. What did models show you getting last night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BryanB Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 dilly84- NAM had us between 8-10 and GFS had us right at 10. The models for about 24 hours leading up to the start of the storm really had the right idea all along. Not something you see happen all the time. Also, temps were around 11 when the snow was falling, so we had ratios around 15-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
