May get a little thunder around here later this evening. Might be the highlight of the month the way it's going lol. Models show 0.5-0.7" of rain for the QCA this evening.
-
Sure miss big December storms like this one 14 years ago today in 2009. 8-12" for the QC, about a foot for much of central and eastern Iowa. At least we have events like this to look back on and reminisce lol.
-
I wish there was a way to look at models that have been decommissioned. I seriously think the AVN back in the early 2000s was way better than the latest few GFS versions.
-
Even though the main storm crapped the bed we at least should get some needed rain tomorrow night. Looks like another half inch is possible.
-
Models definitely trending more and more to glorified frontal passage.
-
Came from eastern forums like so many others here. Was on another one before that but can't remember what it was lol.
-
Youtube needs to change it's name to Hypetube. Seems like every video (weather forecast related especially) is overly hyped, especially by the video title or vid graphic. I get that each youtuber is trying to make their vids pop for views, but it's really dumbing down the site.

Winter 2023/24 Short Range Discussion
cyclone77 replied to Chicago Storm's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Picked up about a half inch of snow here. Ripped pretty good for about a half hour, then had rain mix in for about an hour and melted most of the snow, but now has snowed hard enough to re-dust up the ground again. -
Radar shows mixing moving in from the west out near the QC, so may see it mix with rain here in a little while. Quickly dusted up the ground already though.
-
Snowing pretty hard out there now. Some of the models were showing all rain here but they were wrong.

Insert slippery fish gif: This one's gonna flop around all week looks like. Entertaining times ahead watching the models roll in. -
January gonna be rockin'
-
Was a very potent clipper that dropped 6-10" of snow from MSP down through northern IL into IN and KY.
-
Just read through some of the Dec 3 2010 storm thread. So many peeps from then have left or been banned, kinda sad.
-
0.35" of rain and 0.8" of snow last night/this morning. Snow is melting quickly so may have had more than 0.8".
-
Decent rain event with this wave, with 0.34" of rain so far this evening. It's in the process of changing to snow currently. May pick up an inch or so by morning.

Euro shows a foot of snow for Hawkeye and much of the Iowa crew late next weekend. Looks like the next system of note to watch. GFS and others show something in that time frame as well. Perhaps our 2nd storm thread of the new season incoming? -
Another 1/4" or so of rain on the way for tonight. We may exceed all of November's precip in just the first 2 days of December lol.
-
Huge flakes coming down now with this last wave of enhanced precip. EDIT: Almost a half inch of snow so far with snow still coming down nicely.
-
0.42" of rain so far, with wave number 2 to arrive a little later this evening. That one may have some wet flakes mix in as well.
-
LOL @ southwest MN.
-
Pretty dry month overall for most of the region. DVN/MLI/here will finish with just 0.62"/0.71"/0.77".
-
34 degree soaker a lock for here. May see some mixing but might be mostly rain. Some models show up to 0.75" of precip. We def can use the moisture.
-
Mixed-bag precip event to kick off the month for the QC on Friday. May be able to squeeze out a good half inch of QPF.
-
3 with a wind chill of -8 here this morning. There was some blowing and drifting snow out in the open country yesterday.
