If the uptick in the Globals turns out to come to fruition I’d give two thumbs up to the ICON who has held steady with that solution for the last few days.
I think we’re all too nervous! Regardless of the total amount of snow this storm will be crazy with the winds and temps. Will definitely be one to remember. My hope is that we are issued a blizzard warning. Pretty sure I’ve never been under one of those before in all my years.
Keep the updates coming!!!
18z RGEM is slightly improved further south as well. We need that trend to continue.
Right now I would say Wichita to Joplin look to be in decent shape. NW AR and Tulsa are borderline. Anything further south and west of that is suspect at best.
I know we’re all going to laugh hysterically at what I’m about to say, but the 18z NAM at 84 looks juicy. Snow already breaking out across a lot of OK.
12z GFS looks great! As JoMo said last night, the Kuchera looks solid and can’t be ruled out due to such cold temps. Now we need the Euro to continue to trend in our favor.
I was texting with Dan Skoff about this exact thing yesterday. He thinks the deterministic runs struggle that far out with the details. Does anyone still have access to the ensembles?
The system on the 23rd looks interesting. 12z GFS was more robust with the wave and explodes it just east of us in to the SE.
Should be a fun ride.
Same here in Bentonville. Maybe an inch. Big flakes at times. Decent amount of melting along the way. Definitely unexpected for mid-November. Would have been probably 2-4” in mid-January. Hopefully this is a great sign for the rest of winter.
Decent mid-March snow here. Very heavy, wet flakes. Probably 1-1 1/2 inches so far in Bentonville/Bella Vista. Hard to say for sure with the sun angle/melting.
It will be interesting to see if the Super Bowl Sunday wave can turn into anything. The 12z ICON is the strongest. Euro/CMC show it too. 12z GFS didn’t but the 18z does. Maybe something to watch while things are boring for the next week.
MoWeatherGuy,
similar to what StormDragon said above we just had short “burst” of snow showers within the last half hour. Hopefully that’s a positive sign that 850 temps are cold enough for all snow. We shall see…
