Moderate to heavy snow will be ongoing across much of the interior
west by Monday morning. Surface low will deepen to sub 980 mb
during the day Monday as it rotate westward to near Drummond Island.
With the very slow movement and off the charts moisture
availability from the Gulf and Atlantic, the western U.P. will be
in the comma head for an extended period of time. While 85H
temperatures will not be cold enough for lake enhancement, thank
goodness, persistent upslope flow with northerly winds will maximize
precipitation over the highest terrain. Models are in consensus with
widespread 2 to 5 inch qpf amounts with locally higher amounts
expected over the Huron Mountains. The NAM Nest depiction of 8.5
inches of qpf and 85 inches of snow is clearly overdone, but its
scary to see a model solution like that at this close of a time
range.
