  1. Can't recall any other warning criteria events here when the winds were from the southeast predominately. Gonna be kind of strange lol.
  2. So nice to be tracking a system where we don't have to worry about the timing of a changeover, dry tongue issues, and moisture robbing 'vection.
  3. Feeling pretty confident about 5-7" here and the QC. Seems like higher totals are drifting back toward reality as we get closer.
  4. Those were some warning criteria winds today. Several locations well over 55mph multiple times. Cedar Rapids hit 64mph, Iowa City hit 63mph. MLI/DVN hit 57/56mph.
  5. No doubt. I noticed driving into work this am that a lot of the clingers that were on the oaks were ripped off overnight.
  6. A lot of folks will be putting up their Christmas trees Fri-Sat so this will be like movie like timing for that lol.
  7. 50-55mph wind gusts have arrived. DVN/MLI have gusted to 56/53mph. Cedar Rapids has hit 60mph. A stark contrast to the calm/dense fog environment we had at this time yesterday morning.
  8. We had about a foot of snow a few days after Turkey Day back in 2018. Picked up a half inch of rain in the morning and switched over to very heavy wet snow. Best November event for snow I've ever seen here hands down.
  9. Yeah 18z Euro gets the rain up to I-80 in IL now. Another bump north and Eurythmics will be playing at ALEK's lol.
  10. Would be pretty cool for MLI to blow past last year's whole season total (8.2") with this storm. Would also be the 1st measurable snow of this new season as well lol.
  11. Picked up 0.23" overnight which brings us up to 1.52" for the month.
  12. Haha, yeah I gotta bring up the ol NGM at least once per winter season. Yeah it was a crappy US model from the 90s/early 2000s.
  13. I still have a windows 95 machine cranking out NGM runs.
  14. Looks like it'll take another day or two to work out the fine details with this lead wave. Lots of moving parts. The large scale pattern really does support a high-end storm evolving out of this immediately following the lead wave. Hope we can sync things up properly to take advantage of it.
  15. Luckily the Euro doesn't carry nearly as much weight anymore.
  16. Definitely something in the works for this period. We just need the shortwaves to play ball and sync up properly. Nice to have something to watch for a change.
  17. Had a few raindrops hit the windshield on the drive home from work. Guess it wasn't a total shutout for today's system.
  18. Don't think I've ever seen this much drought throughout the entire country. Where the hell have all the weather systems gone?
  19. The AI Euro has been selling a storm system next weekend pretty consistently for days. Hopefully it's on the right track.
  20. 0.54" overnight/early this morning here.
  21. That late week system had been looking quite nice for several days on multiple models. A real shame to see it crap the bed across the board today. Next mirage storm coming around the 25th.
