We picked up roughly 1" in like 15 minutes with that line.

Winds behind that line are not nearly as strong maybe 15-20 which is like nothing to what we were seeing.

2.97" of rain here as that line has now passed through here. My weather station was blown down!

Line went through Torrential Rain sump pump going off for a 7th time in last hour. The wind with the line was an abrupt switch from South to SW to WSW Winds 35-45 gusts to 50 with the drenching rains. I am going to check the rain gauge now.

56 dewpint 54 pressure 29.01 falling winds have routinely gusted past 55 mph lots of sirens power flickering off and on numerous power flashes 2.34" of rain.

I am sure that the winds are mixing right down to the surface. 55 degrees here Winds SSE 35-45 gusts to 55 humidty 96% dewpoint 54 pressure 29.11 falling 1.76" of rain an hour ago.

Moderate to heavy rain 51 humidity 96% Dewpoint 50 wind ESE 20-30 gusts to 40 now. 0.66" of rain so far and coming down windblown.

It does not help that there is a 40+ degree water body nearby the Great Lakes even if more local as compared to the issues we have from the Atlantic Ocean and even the Chesapeake Bay.

Light Rain 37 humidity 81% Dewpoint 31 pressure 30.10 falling Wind ENE 9 mph total rainfall so far 0.03"

Kiss that snowpack good bye!

How did the space "Spire" Model do in the past snow event just for scoring reasons?

That storm Saturday is a repeat of today possibly stronger due to the fact todays storm is a 978-980 way out in western Michigan. Saturdays storm 978 at Erie much closer to us. Heavy rain high winds and severe thunderstorms ⛈

That as modeled by the space model would be a HECS

Got to get though the two super soakers and wind machines first. At this point I am starting to wonder which storm is more impactful today's storm or Saturday. I mean 978 mb storm in NW PA is no joke for here when it comes to heavy rain, strong winds, and probably severe thunderstorms.

That looks like a clear arctic boundary on the models. Some of our biggest snowstorms love to develop along arctic boundaries. That is a very stout 1051 mb high building south out of western Montana diving down to Texas and Louisanna that will really raise the heights along the East Coast maybe we can get something to develop near Jacksonville Florida or the NE Gulf to move up the coast. We likely will know very little until the cutters and the baroclinic zone they leave behind decide what to do in regard to the next cold push and storm development.

I would think that pops a ridge out of the Gulf of Mexico.

This has happened before back in the 80's and 90's snow squalls drops an inch or two and into the icebox and then three days later, we get hammered with a storm from the south as the cold air reloads. I think these extreme cutters blizzards, rain, and wind events will manifest our pattern that we want for snow patience it is coming.

Well then it fits in perfectly with our two storms in the Mid-West Extreme moving to the East Coast wait until you see tomorrow night into Wednesday and Saturday!

We were in full bloom here for Valentine's Day last year! We are on the exact same pace.

Pretty good feed to watch would be Virtual Railfan there is one in Elkhart Indiana they should have interesting weather there I would think. Here we are for now watching live video streams last year was Lake Tahoe this year it is anywhere in the midwest for now.

I thought Cutters were a La Nina thing with a Southeast Ridge? Seems to change like the models.

They are just confused like all other animals cut them a break!

Cloudy with some drizzle 36 humidity 94% dewpoint 34 total storm action: 1. 0.26" of snow 2. 0.04" of sleet 3. 1.28" liquid All set for damaging winds with trees down and power outages with 3-4" of rain Tuesday 5 pm to Wednesday 3 am.

The 0z Candian suggests this further east notion on the weekend storm something to keep an eye on after we see where the baroclinic zone sets up after our super soaker and damaging wind event on Tuesday into Wednesday.

It's my fault following the geese and looking for the one big storm that's one and done for this winter with the 20"+ storm then moving towards Spring.
