  1. Precip is pretty far south for that low location; you would expect the heaviest snow from about Waterloo to Madison with that track, but lower QPF in those areas.
  2. Nah, last few winters for sure, I know it's not a done deal. For awhile it seemed like it.
  3. Normally I feel the teleconnections play a big factor in these storms and their track, and those definitely favor a southern solution. Good to see some hope for those of us in Central Iowa into Southern Wisconsin.
  4. With the -NAO, -AO and PNA turning positive the jackpot may end up even a bit south of Geos' old hood.
  5. I can imagine how warm the heat in the Twin Cities and Des Moines must've felt this late in the season, here it was upper 70s with dews in the 60s and that was warm enough with full sunshine and a light breeze.
  6. Top shelf is right, looks like it’s going to be dancing around 80F at the warmest and it’s been mid 60s at its coolest. The lake continues to be my friend as it’s been most of the summer.
  7. Saukville is probably getting tired of all this storm action, not sure his plants are loving it either. That bow could do some damage north of 94.
  8. The southern part of that line from La Crosse to Ottumwa looks like it is wanting to turn right; if so, many of the same areas that got thrashed with heavy rain and some severe last night may get clipped again.
  9. I'm under a severe tstorm and Flash Flood Warning at the same time, it's been pretty close to nonstop storm action since about 6:00pm.
  10. What a stormy night it's been! Close to a half dozen separate lines/cells have moved through the area, especially the northern metro (this most recent one warned). Bowme has barely received any rain, but up here it's been an inch or two easily with more looking to be on the way.
  11. I'm not sure I can fathom how bad the flooding on the west side of Madison into Middleton is right now; it's been training for a few hours there, even with 40dbz returns it has been pouring here, and they've had consistent 50-60dbz returns.
  12. It hasn't been much different here in Milwaukee; we did have an early March event of about 4" and this last week's event gave about 2", but besides that it's been cold, windy and largely dry (average wind chill the last three weeks have been in the teens and 20s). For the season we haven't made it to 40" yet, and I think we'll end up a tad short. However, with our lake breezes, at least this is not spring weather we're unaccustomed to.
  13. Speaking for only myself, though 2011-12 was bad (around 30" here in Milwaukee) being a mild winter actually redeems it compared to an average temperature winter like this one that was devoid of any major storms. Threading the needle on occasion in a mild winter is better in my book than missing a lot of storms in a colder (relatively speaking) winter.
  14. I feel you. Three straight days of wind chills in the 20s in mid afternoon is brutal, and to top it off we get to hear all about the major snowstorms around us (particularly the East Coast) and at least in my case I have lower wind chills than they've had to deal with. Tough to swallow.
  15. Nice! It seems like most of the meteorologists around the area got their degree at UW. Looking forward to this winter of tracking!

  17. Yes, but I don't think you understand how some of this stuff is out of each individual's control. Imagine houses that don't have basements and are swept off their foundations. You're telling me if the people in those houses don't survive it's their fault b/c they didn't heed the warnings?
