Dec 6-7th (It's not a clipper) Clipper

Our 11" shrunk by half pretty quickly. -

The globals have been much more stable (and south) than the CAMs. -

The 00z models were north, but the overnight and morning trend has been back south. -

The Euro is holding steady with its snow band through Iowa. In general, the global models are farther south and the CAMs are farther north. -

The Saturday night clipper has shifted north on several models overnight. The CAMs have shifted significantly north. -
Winter 2025-26 Medium/Long Range Discussion
hawkeye_wx replied to michsnowfreak's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
It's a very active pattern over the next couple weeks. There will be an alternating series of brief mild and cold surges. The Euro is showing quite a temp contrast a week from now between the plains and lakes. -

12z Euro is still hot with the weekend clipper for my area. This system is short-lived, though. It blows up in Siouxland and craps out after leaving Iowa. -
Got down to -8º here, with some -teens across northern Iowa. Models are amping up the weekend clipper. The latest Euro is fairly robust.

Nov 28-30th Post Turkey Day Winter Storm
hawkeye_wx replied to Chicago Storm's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
My total is 11.0". This storm had a lot of good qualities. One negative is it was mostly light to moderate snow, with only a couple brief bursts of heavy rates, which is why I was not able to get to a foot. -

I have 10.9 inches. Maybe I could squeeze another 0.1 out of the last light band. -

Looking at my records that go back to 2007, I had never even come close to getting double-digit snow in November, until this year. -

Yeah, but that stuff will be very light and gradually lift north as it moves east. The latest CAMs have about another inch falling here over the next four hours. -

The nice, fluffy flakes from the recent heavy pocket boosted my total to 10.2 inches. Unfortunately, that was it for the good snow, so once again I will not get a 12" storm. -

A pocket of yellow just popped over CR, which should help get me to 10". Large flakes are dumping.
