Yeah, It's not parachutes, but it's not pixie dust either. Alas, it's accumulating very efficiently.
-
Dumping snow. Getting that foggy look.

Happy that I'm a lazy government employee that gets to sit at home today (and get paid to boot) and watch this all unfold. The areal coverage that this event has and is hitting will be one for the books.
-
Just one more time for the hell of it...but the 12z Euro bumped northwest.
-
I have a bar in the backyard that I haven't cleared since the Jan 30/31 storm. Has about 14" depth. You can see the bigger flakes easily stacking on top of the existing pack right now. If this is how's it gonna be the rest of today and tonight, then...yeah. Wish I had a cyclone time lapse...
-
Big flakes falling right now ahead of the band just about to hit. The main show for here, is about to start. Measured 2.2" with part one on 0.10" liquid. Shoveled this morning after it ended, and my driveway banks are getting into epic territory.
-
Northeast has the historic Presidents Day 1 and 2 storms (PD I and II). Maybe we can call this one PD21 for us or something.
-
lol, yeah. Just a historic storm all around. Pretty awesome.
-
Obs from down south are something. Heavy snow with single digit temps in OK, MO, AR, etc. Thats just a little crazy to me.
-
Lake band incoming for Hoosier.
-
LOT bumping too. New zone forecast has 6-11" storm total. Up from 4-8". Monday Night Snow in the evening, then light snow likely after midnight. Snow may be heavy at times in the evening. Snow accumulation of 3 to 5 inches. Total snow accumulation 6 to 11 inches. Lows 1 to 5 above. Wind chills as low as zero to 10 below zero. North winds 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation 100 percent.
-
GFS twins ticking northwest. EDIT: I guess more the old one, to the above. But that's just the usual catch up mode. v16 a bit snowier overall.
-
0z HIRES models. Spartman style. ARW and NSSL. Kinda interesting that both have a lolli of 12/13" in parts of IKK county. Micro shenanigans most likely.
-
18" over Alek's head, thru 0z Wednesday.
-
Even though this is just pregame snows right now, if you will, I can't ever recall starting a bigger event with a temperature of 1˚. Flake size is pretty good too.
-
Both storms combined. Farther up by us, storm #2 is still going obviously...but there's a 32" spot down in NE AR. That's got to be 5-6 winters of snowfall for them in 5 days.
-
You're sitting pretty Jim. Good luck.
-
Yeah. First foot + storm since V-Day 07 looking very possible. Always root for our former home.
-
LAF with the 13 spot on the NAM. Nice. 0z NAM and 3km with 9.4" and 9.3" here respectively. So shall it be.
-
Kinda crazy. Hell, the coverage of 10"+ snow depth at the end of this storm, across the entire region, has to rival some of the great winters of the past. Assuming this verifies and all...
-
Certainly.
-
Easy answer. Never.
-
Yeah, I thought 1/5/14 was probably the biggest spread the wealth storm (coverage of 6"+) Indiana has ever seen. Along with Jan '99. This one, if it works out as modeled, beats it no doubt. Pretty amazing.
-
It's been steady with that call.
