Brewers Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 12z GFS would give us 6 inches of snow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCoaster Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 RGEM throgh 48 looks like it'd be a decent hit for YYZ. Looks decent, but not as juicy as the 00Z I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll know for sure soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersnow12 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 pretty impressive N-S gradient across the LOT CWA on the 12z GFS. Curious as to where the rain/snow line setups on the UKMET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Wouldn't be so sure about all rain for N IL. WAA is not screaming in from the south/southwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Wouldn't be so sure about all rain for N IL. WAA is not screaming in from the south/southwest. All rain...no. Mostly. Riding the GFS which has been the best of a lousy bunch lately but this kind of map never leads to good things. Front end teaser flakes south of I90...1-3" of cement to the WI border. Take it to the bank. Bonus IMBY final call: .7" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundersnow12 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Wouldn't be so sure about all rain for N IL. WAA is not screaming in from the south/southwest. exactly, WAA gets a bit north but as the 850mb low develops overhead you get cold air pulled back in across the northern half of the CWA.

Brewers Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Many of the models would give us our storm of the winter so far. Can't complain with that. It would cap off a pretty good week in terms of snow. Heck it would make this the best week of winter in the past two years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We roll ahead and 850 temps cool, when precip enters the picture. All I'm saying is that it's not an all/mostly rain event for N IL...as presented right now.

All I'm saying is that it's not an all/mostly rain event for N IL...as presented right now. Agree...although by the slimmest of margins. Plus, Lake Michigan is at its lowest water temp all season, so that won't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Tough call for N IL. I could see anything from mostly frozen to mostly liquid. Maybe the truth lies in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is that it's not an all/mostly rain event for N IL...as presented right now. I understand and I'm not interpreting the run verbatim. When I see a rather aggressive sw flow at 850 like that, it will likely be underdone and it's hard to buy them cooling as advertised on that run with such a weak 850 low passing nearby. We'll see but this doesn't look like favorable setup to me. Geos might manage a couple inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the rain will be a little warmer for LAF this go around, versus the last event a couple of weeks ago. Score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not happening...which we're in agreement. I think a cocktail is possible, that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toronto blizzard Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 12z GGEM looked good for about 6-8'' here. Hoping the EURO still has those amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
