December 11th-14th Double Banger Clippers
Radtechwxman replied to Jackstraw's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Lots of 5-7in reports around my area! This exceeded my expectations. Peoria official total at airport was 5.7in. Peoria is at 16.9in for season now which makes it 2nd snowiest start on record. Also we have already exceeded all of last winter's snowfall by a large margin. -

Man if this system was moving slower this would of been a big one. Have picked up quite a bit of snow quickly. -

How much you at so far? -

Radtechwxman replied to Jackstraw's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Best snow of the year so far. Awesome banding, dry fluffy snow, and big fat flakes in these heavier bands. Easily seen 1in+ hr rates at times. A true snow globe outside. Sad it's going to torch this week and melt it all. -

Im sorry man. I know how that feels. All too well. Pretty much all last winter got missed. Peoria has already surpassed all of last winter's snow. Looks like after a torch for a bit maybe some interesting stuff around Xmas. I was surprised myself these followed basically the same track or close to. -

I would love 12z hrrr to verify. But nam has me a little nervous on a south shift. Has heavier swath south. -

Im definitely worried about another south trend. 0z euro and 0z nam's still look solid for you. Gfs was the most south. Hrrr/rap decently north as well but they also were night before this current event. -

Got into a nice weenie band tonight. Was dumping. Heaviest ended up to my south where my persistent banding was but I think I should manage to get in the 2-3in range. Hoping Sat will be more spread the wealth. -

Im honestly nervous about my area. Looks good now but so did my area for today days ago and look how much it shifted south. With more potential phasing hoping this one can be more north. -

Brutal cutoff. Band has stalled barely to my wsw. Will be lucky to see 1-2in probably. This is painful -

Radtechwxman replied to michsnowfreak's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Hoping it doesn't follow baroclinic zone put down by today's snow and more so the incoming temp gradient with the arctic front. ILX seems to think it will follow snow swath of today's system and be more south. Models right now disagree. But obviously could change. -

Sat snow seems more north on runs today but guessing that will shift south like today's clipper did -

Not looking like it anymore. Keeps shifting south and less qpf on morning runs. At this point 2in is probably generous here. Maybe 3in if we get into good banding. Hoping Sat can pan out better cuz this one has really downtrended. -

Just making an observation. Lol. I find it amusing how all over the place guidance is still. 0z nam south. At this point anyone is fair game -

0z hrrr not backing down. It's either out to lunch or going to pull a big win being the model that was right -

Hoping tomorrow pans out here. Sat seems to keep trending more south and weaker each run. At least on gfs. -

Live and die by hrrr. Usually dont give it any credibility till day of event Clippers are a nightmare to forecast. Seems like a lot of last second shifts with these. Also could be a relatively narrow corridor of frontogenic banding with areas outside getting more of a pixie dust snow. Definitely not spread the wealth. Sat has a little bit better coverage. -

And cams ended up being right. 18z nam more south than hrrr but more north of globals. So might be a good compromise. Hrrr definitely the most north. But would be par for course to get missed north Thurs and missed south Sat. -

If hrrr is right N IL scores again and I will be on southern edge. Cams definitely more north and globals more south. Crazy how much variability there still is the day before. -

Im sure it will find a way to shift north or south of me still. The dome is strong. Ha. I feel most optimistic about Thurs. Sat I feel might end up even more south unfortunately. 12z gfs has me on northern edge. We shall see. Definitely a notable south trend. -

Radtechwxman replied to michsnowfreak's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Probably going to see a lot of north and south wobbles. I dont like where I sit currently. Cutoff will be sharp and frontogenic bands always end up narrower than expected with brutal cutoff on either side. -

Well pattern lately been favoring north shifts and generally I80 north so maybe not. We shall see. Wish I could lock in gfs. Ha
