I approve.

It's an awesome phenomenon for a part of the country that frequently gets above 100 degrees in the summer.

I'll be sure to update. Will probably post pictures too. Maybe even a video.

Is that what that is? Wow, didn't think it was capable of that, but makes sense. We were the beneficiary of some of that lake effect snow, so if the winds are favorable, we might get a boost from that too here.

North Tulsa county in Owasso/Collinsville.

0z 3K NAM looking Nice!

With storm #2

Storm 1 18Z GFS

High res Canadian is catching onto that heavy band near I-44.

Sorry! Late to the party, running errands!

The Euro trended a touch slower and westward for the 2nd storm. So towards the insane GFS, but still has a ways to go.

Looks fairly similar to last night's run, SW MO and central OK doesn't get as much, but NW AR gets a little more(goes from about 6 to almost 8). Tulsa down 1.5 inches. Interestingly, the Euro isn't sniffing out the heavy band that sets up tonight, like the short range models are, so that will make a difference if it happens.

TSA. Our attention then focuses on the winter storm which is expected to impact parts of eastern Oklahoma after midnight tonight. The latest hi-res guidance has shown a consistent signal for a heavy but narrow frontogenetical band to set up somewhere over central and eastern Oklahoma ahead of the main wave of snow. This potential band will need to be watched for a quick 2 to 4 inches if not more before sunrise. As a result, locations within this band will see conditions deteriorate rapidly. The exact location of this band is still in question and the details of the winter storm overall will be ironed out in the afternoon forecast package.

Norman has some text to go with it. Basically talking about that first band we are seeing on models and how it’ll provide some noticeable added inches before the “main event”,

Yeah that 2nd Storm goes nuts. Idk that we would use kuchera values for the 2nd storm....might be more like 15:1?

Hour 84 of NAM FWIW.

Loving this new trend on the short term models. It would appear our snow in Tulsa is highly dependent on that initial band coming though.

Yup, lock this in please.

One storm at a time I know. But both the GFS and Canadian have trended towards a much snowier solution for the 2nd storm. Not much changes overnight on the models.

Euro still lookin good in my neck of the woods.

You know I will be.

00Z GFS looks about the same as the 18Z, with the exception of central OK amped up a little more.

Yup, just went outside for about 10 min. Can see the snow blowing around on the roads and just a pretty, light, snow.
