  1. Due to probable mixing issues along the southeast edge of the heavier snow band I'm gonna go with a first call of 1-3 for here/QC. Need a 75-100 mile bump southeast to get us into the heavier snows, but that's probably not gonna happen. Cedar Rapids to Dubuque, and Madison looking golden per usual.
  2. Trying to reel it in down this way
  3. Looks like the same corridor that just cashed in with this past system (CR to Dubuque/Madison) will be ground zero for the Thursday system. Areas just to the southeast will continue the screwage.
  4. Yeah fantastic day to be sure with full sun, light winds and temps in mid fiddies
  5. This me about every day looking at the models coming in
  6. On Thursday the Euro has near 70 at LAF and only upper 20s in far northwest IL. Definitely a nice baroclinic zone with this system.
  7. Oh cool, another miss northwest. Guess I'd rather have that then a near miss just southeast ala GHD3 last season.
  8. Definitely a big jump in snowfall as you head north. Just in the DVN cwa MLI is at a lowly 11.8" while Dubuque is 28.4". Dubuque is right at normal, while MLI is now down 13.6 inches. I'm just happy that we're 0.2" ahead of MLI lol.
  9. Unless something better comes along in the next month or so, the 3.2" that fell back in the late January event will be the best event of the season. We'll see what happens but this has the possibility of being the wussiest winter I've seen in my 46 years.
  10. Missed the accumulating snow by less than 5 miles. A few wet flakes mixed in a times both here and at work. Picked up 1.12" of rain. MLI might have passed us up in seasonal snowfall now. They were at 10.7", and had picked up 0.9" as of noon. Still stuck at 12.0" here.
  11. Too far east here. The nose of IA looks like where that narrow band of snow falls now. May still get a period of wet snow later this morning but not expecting much if any accum from here points east. The western side of the QC may end up with some accumulations, gonna be close. Heavy rain pouring here. 0.57" so far and climbing quickly.
  12. I think what's making it worse is this is the 2nd one in a row well below average for snow. It'll all even out in the seasons to come but stacking two crappers back to back definitely sucks lol.
  13. I'd guess 3-5" in the main swath with isolated higher amounts. You guys are probably gonna be pretty much in that. I'd put the spine of the band from Oskaloosa up to about Prairie du Chien. Looks like the best chance at 5+ will be further north towards Prairie du Chien and into southwest WI where the storm maxes out.
  14. Looks like a solid rainer for the QC, probably 1-1.5". Think we'll see a burst of snow at the end Thu but good chance it's not measurable.
  15. It's 51 here at nearly 1am. Not too shabby for early-mid Feb.
  16. Looks like the CR crew could cash in if things go perfectly. May see the grassy surfaces dust up some here in the QCA for a time Thu. Prob enough to bump MLI over the all-time futility mark unfortunately.
  17. Yep, looking like a sloppy slusher. Looks like just enough for them to go out and re-salt right after all the old stuff gets washed away lol.
  18. KC made it to 70 today. Low 60s bulged into southern IA.
  19. It's getting to where if the sun's out and there's little wind it feels warmer than what the temp is. Sun angle ftw
  20. 00z Euro says seasonal trend continues for northern IL/southeast IA lol
  21. You can definitely see the first hint of spring fever already hitting. Lots of people out today on walks, car washes jam packed, and people just outside to be outside. Snow is quickly melting here and should be completely gone be tomorrow. MLI up to 45 making a run at 50. EDIT: MLI did end up hitting 50.
  22. Wow, wind chill is down to -106 now. That's crazy
