    Feeling pretty good about a quick 5-6" before quick shift to sleet. HRRR drops 1.5" precip so could get quite the sleet storm tomorrow eve before changing to frz rain/rain.

    Thanks for deflating my balloon lol. I'm gonna fine tune my earlier 3-6" call to 5-6".

    One of the short-term models that has a tendency to be one of the leaders in calling out stronger than expected WAA is the RGEM. It's been consistently further southeast of some other guidance for numerous runs so I'm going to take that as a good sign.

    HRRR has the party over by 6pm in the QC as sleet moves in. Luckily should snow fairly heavily for several hrs before that happens. Would def like to be further nw where there's a better shot at warning criteria. If we can delay WAA long enough still can't rule it out here though.

    I'm riding the 2.5km RGEM lol. In all seriousness I'll just go with a general 3-6" for here/QC in agreement with DVN. Hawkeye and crew should clean up again with 8"+ looking quite likely.

    Picked up 0.7" of snow. Nice to see it look white out there finally.

    Hit 50 in MLI earlier this afternoon, 47 here. Light snow falling now and back down to 31.

    This evening's snows crap the bed right at the Mississippi River coming out of Iowa. Seasonal trends won't be denied lol. Cedar Rapids has a shot to break the 1ft mark for the season.

    I see your Clint Black and raise you Milli Vanilli. In all seriousness, the wide array of changes is going to make each model cycle exciting to watch come in over coming days.

    It's now been over a month (November 24th) since our heaviest snowfall so far (0.5"). Hopefully we can break the 1" threshold sometime in January.

    It made me want to run down the street yelling merry Christmas everyone like Jimmy Stewart.

    Had some mood flakes blowing around under the street lights a little while ago. Nice touch for xmas eve night.
  13. cyclone77
    Because when things are this bad futility potential is the only glimmer of excitement lol.

    Noon yesterday at MLI was at 60 degrees. Today at noon it's 13 with a wind chill of -4.
  15. cyclone77
    Hopefully we can get some kind of front-end action. Either way I hope we can get a little thunder at least.
  16. cyclone77
    Coldest of the season this morning with 7 degrees. Lack of snow cover is allowing temps to get a little "warmer" than DVN anticipated yesterday, as MLI is already up to 14. Some pretty nice squalls passed through southeast IA into west-central IL south of the QC overnight. Shows up nicely on satellite this am.

    New Euro follows seasonal trends. Iowa/Minnesota cash in while IL/IN twiddles their thumbs awaiting the next system.
  18. cyclone77
    The point has 13 for a high for MLI tomorrow, so with today's record high of 63 it may be 50 degrees lower on tomorrow's max if they can get to 13 by midnight this eve. Pretty impressive change in conditions.
  19. cyclone77
    Estherville IA gusted to 71mph around 7pm. They're at 1/8 mile vis with full on ground blizzard right now, plus it's only 7 degrees.
  20. cyclone77
    Would rather have the main storm of course, but I'd be fine with a decent front-end thump to get us our first incher of the season.
  21. cyclone77
    New record high today at MLI of 63. Hit 61 here. MLI hit 52mph earlier today. Been very windy lately.
  22. cyclone77
    Nice! Great timing to lay down some fresh powder right before xmas. Take lots of pics so we can live vicariously through your experience.
  23. cyclone77
    This morning's Euro snowfall forecast through the end of the year nearly perfectly illustrates mostly what we've seen so far this season. Illinois dead zone. Definitely a very frustrating start to the season to be sure.
  24. cyclone77
    MLI and DVN both had peak gusts of 47mph this afternoon, had 46mph here. Burlington hit 53mph.
  25. cyclone77
    If it ain't gonna snow I'm ready to mow.
