  1. Long ways off but it never gets old seeing big storms like that show up in the long range. Luckily we have another 11 days to get that to trend a bit northwest.
  2. It's kind of funny, we have almost 8" of snow for the season but it really feels like I haven't seen it snow yet in a way. About 95% of the snow that fell and accumulated fell when it was pitch black out. Will be looking forward to the first true daytime event. Even a nice snow shower during the day would be nice.
  3. Had a little period of wet snow a short while ago. Not enough to stick but nice to see mood flakes. Will be moving to the new house this week so I'm okay with the weather being quiet.
  4. May see a few flurries later on. Looking pretty quiet going forward, which has become par for the course for December.
  5. Definitely looking very windy late Tue night through Wed. Looks like 50-60mph wind potential for this area points east Wed. The Euro indicates another big wind maker for the weekend as well.
  6. Maybe it was a typo, and he meant to type big lizzards instead.
  7. So shall we largely ignore the NCEP guidance beyond the 48-72hr mark this season? The GFS has flopped hard on the first two systems of note. I know it's definitely gonna be hard to take it seriously until it scores a win or a tie at the least.
  8. Looking forward to some more mood flakes Sun night/Mon morning.
  9. The obligatory sure glad the models come out an hour earlier post.
  10. Not sure when they updated it, but wxbell is now showing the 06z/18z Euro runs now. Nice addition. They're also continuing to tweak the model graphics, as they've just recently added 3hr increments for P-type/thickness to the Euro. EDIT: And now I see they have added hourly maps for many of the parameters, like surface temp, etc. Very nice!
  11. I'd take that. Let's get '19/'20 season started right!

  13. Man, every time I see your user name this always pops in my head lol.
  14. Posted this in the lakes sub, but guess I'll post it here as well. My time lapse from near Nelson MO, or about 30 miles west of Columbia MO.
  15. Interesting to see your perspective. I saw those same cu bubbling up, but they were southeast of where I was.
  16. For two runs in a row now the EC has a relatively decent setup over the eastern Dakotas/western MN for Friday. Hopefully it's on to something as the GFS is quite different. Decent mid-level flow arrives atop a plume of deep moisture/instability. Wind profiles look pretty respectable. Something to watch anyway.
  17. Don't know if this was ever posted here, but this is pretty damn sad. Her brother died after graduating from high school just before the tornado hit.
  18. Something interesting I just noticed for the first time. Looking at the 2234z scan you can already see the rapid intensification of the meso just off the surface. The 1.5° tilt shows over 170kt g2g, compared to a broad 100kt g2g at the lowest tilt (0.5°). The next scan at 0.5° at 2239 jumped up to about 180kt g2g. Definitely a good example of why it's important to keep an eye on the various tilts. 0.5° 1.5°
  19. Don't know if this one was posted yet. Sort of an interesting perspective here shot at the University of Alabama. The video starts about 15min before the tornado moves past when it was still raining. It's interesting watching the updraft base/wall cloud/tornado appear out of the rain of the FFD.
