Thanks for the memory refresh. I remember now.
-
Whatever happened to Will in Calumet? Haven’t heard from him in awhile.
-
Low of -8 this morning. Radiational cooling ftw
-
Second largest February storm ever at MSP. If that weenie band of 18-20” in the southern burbs was 10 miles north this would have been a top 5 snowfall all time. Given the full evolution of the storm, it’s was incredible to witness all major global model lock into a solution a week in advance that more or less verified.

After the latest storm, seasonal snowfall now stands at 70.4” in Minneapolis.

There’s now several 18-19” reports and one 20” report. A NWS employee measured 17.5” at their home.

13.1” at MSP still ripping. 0.7” away from monthly single storm record.
-
Maybe it’s legit

Was about to post this. I don’t buy that 19” report but the 15-17” seems plausible given that area saw good banding from both waves. It’s still snowing fat dendrites here and I bet we have 13-14”

Winter 2022/23 Medium/Long Range Discussion

Time to focus on next week. -
Now a 16” report in the SW suburb of Savage along with 15.5” in the southern suburb of Lakeville. Record February storm at MSP is 13.1” so that might be reachable depending on the noon obs. My ski area decided to leave all blues and blacks ungroomed overnight. Heading there for the noon open.
-
Airport was at 10.1” at 6am, NWS office 12.5”. I can say with confidence we’ve added at least 1.5” since then and it’s still snowing at a decent clip.
-
Looks like a 14.5” report was just filed a mile south of me.
-
There’s a few 12”+ CoCoRaHS reports coming in including a 15.5” in the eastern suburb of Woodbury.
-
I’m still waiting to see the 6am obs from the airport, but I’m measuring 10-11” imby as well. At least it made shoveling easier.
-
The models really had no idea on the evolution of this system. I wonder if it came down to multiple shortwaves rotating through instead of one solid deformation band of snow, which caused the 50% over modeling of precipitation. It’s ripping now but I’m guessing the final storm total will be between 10-12” at the airport if they can get an accurate measurement in this wind.
-
Hope nobody here is without power for long. I’d take 34 and rain all day over a crippling ice storm.
-
HRRR still putting down 0.60-0.70” of precipitation here before everything wraps up. That should translate to another 9” or so for a storm total of ~14-15” we’ll see how things shake out.
-
Storm total of 5.5” as of 6pm. That amounts to 1.4” from round 2. The NWS office was up to 6.5”
-
We had that last week, 0.87” of rain and never got warmer then 37. Just the worst.
-
Before and after the main show started earlier this afternoon. Wish I could have stayed on the slopes longer, but I don’t want to chance it with the roads going downhill.
-
Closing in on an inch imby from the main event. It’s coming down pretty good right now. What part of town are you in? I think 8-10” additional is probably what my side of town will see.
-
Good powder day at Welch Village ski area. Round 2 is on our doorstep.
