December 20-22 Winter Storm (Blizzard?) Potential


Hoosier

Recommended Posts

chi storm no one answered my question earlier lol. thunderstorm potential with this storm is ______?

Decent potential. Though the best potential is likely when the low deepens off to your NE.

Looked at some of the soundings out of SE. WI and NE. IL earlier, which show decent omega in the snow growth region at the time of precip type changeover. Should be decent production and TSSN potential...along with the wind potential.

That's just the GFS though.

Our chase team is actually chasing this. Our preliminary target is Cedar Rapids, IA but we will obviously be tweaking until the track gets nailed down.

I like how Bastardi (on twitter) was talking about how the GFS is the worst model in the world because it took a more NW track, then the 00z ECMWF came in much stronger and more wrapped up...and more NW.

BTW, just arrived in MN. Pretty excited to watch this storm unfold. CO lows are my favorite synoptic cyclone in the world...even more than I95 coastal huggers. There is something special about leeside hookers through the plains.
