With Des Moines already at 29" of snow for the season, they're looking to exceed 40" by tomorrow as a foot of snow there is looking like a slam dunk. Amazing winter for them.
Looks like the snow won't get going until near sunset unfortunately. Was hoping to see some daytime snow. Still looking good for 6-8" if 12:1 LSR work out. If LSR end up less we'll be more in the 5-6" type range.
Yeah it's been great. I'm not a huge snow cover aficionado like Michigansnowfreak but it's been great having solid snow cover through the heart of the winter season.
Final call for here/QC is 6-8" including what falls Wednesday. Nice to not have to worry about rain or ice mixing in for a change lol. Hopefully LM dumps on you guys up in Chi-town to make up for the misery up to this point this season.
We've seen models go too far in one direction in the past, only to correct back the other direction as we close in on the event. Definitely still time for the pendulum to swing back in the other direction.
We've had some ultra dogs over the past 10 years, so I'm good with it. Give me a 6"+ storm in a season and that's good enough for me to get my "fix" lol. Of course would love another 10"+ but those are much harder to come by.
Was pretty confident in a 10" storm yesterday, still could happen but looking more like a 6-9" type storm. Still solid, and will be the best in a few seasons.
You guys are absolutely killing it this year. Only 0.1" here lol. You guys are now over a foot ahead of us for the season. Luckily the sleet storm from hell solidified our glacier and made the most of what fell.
That's extraordinarily bad luck considering how CR sits in the middle of where so many big dogs have tracked through the decades. Maybe the 140mph derecho was an effort by ma nature to balance the scales.
