Winter 2025-26 Medium/Long Range Discussion
IWXwx replied to michsnowfreak's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
You look to be in the best position of almost anybody in the forum to see some decent accumulations before it peters out. -
Picked 2.9” of fluff overnight, with 6.5” on the ground. That depth won’t last long though.
-
With ratios looking to be up to 20:1, my call is 4.5" here.

Nov 28-30th Post Turkey Day Winter Storm
IWXwx replied to Chicago Storm's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
I had a blast putting up Christmas lights all afternoon in SN and bursts of +SN. I measured 6.9" at 11 PM (EST), with light snow still falling, but must have had some mixing issues after midnight, causing some melting/compaction as there was only 5.5" at 7 AM CoCoRaHS measure. All in all, a good storm to track with nice results. On to another possible 2-4 tomorrow night! -

Crossing my fingers too. I saw your call and if it is onto something, you might have to bring your totals down a little, especially to the south and I would that for you (and me lol). But at least you have warned the public about possible last minute changes since we are riding the edge. So far IWX and you are in pretty good agreement though. -

Did you read IWX this morning? Given the incredible thermodynamics, Lake Superior connection, and synoptic support any mesolow or dominant band will be capable of producing snowfall rates of up to 3"/hour with thundersnow quite possible. There is still some uncertainty where exactly the band sets up and how long it stays in one area (models show some variation to the flow through Monday), but snow will be measured in feet, not inches, for any location that sees this dominant band visit for more than a few hours. Have a conservative 6-12" for La Porte County right now but that could certainly go higher. Winds will also be a concern with this event.

It's gonna take a lot more than 0.06" to break the FWA drought.

Thanks guys. I'm sure you're right. I know the soybeans are being harvested, but still quite a few corn fields around here that's still pretty green, but drying rapidly.

Leave it to Spartman to declare summer cancel. Dayton expected 85-90 for the next seven days. A couple of those 89-90’s may be too low

Look like they will have the perfect weather for it during the next couple of weeks across our area per the Euro

@Jackstraw It's pretty interesting how different weather can be over a relatively small area with similar terrain and elevation. While you eregetting pounded over and over earlier this summer, I'm in drought.
