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.
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...
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.
Certainly not scientific, but I think this is where you want the Euro and Ukie at this stage. In other words, for us in IL, a miss. Both track records of the Europeans in the mid range had been awful lately...
