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.
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?
Yeah it's pouring little dendrites straight down, sticking to the trees etc. Looks like a Christmas card out there this morning. Picked up 2-2.5" so far looks like, with a few more hours of steady snows to go.
Digging the little upticks in overall QPF the last 24+hrs with this system. Hoping that's a good sign for the new season.
Models generally spit out around 0.2-0.25" for the QCA, so a nice 2" snowfall is what's expected.
