I like what Dilly's map is showing for me. Local mets don't even know what to do at this point...

 

My one concern is how far north the moisture from the final wave can make it. The Moisture is there around the Ohio River, if we can buy maybe a 40-50 mile kick north. ( which isn't out of the question with last minute adjustments )

I see no reason to not go with at least 6"+ along I-70.  Even though there was some backing off of the most extreme totals, that was probably to be expected based on climo (not that climo has been that useful this season).  I'll go with around 8" for Columbus.

Dilly and JB, I agree with you guys. There is not reason right now to discount higher amounts along I-70. If this thing juices up like I think it will.

 

And this is with my weenie glasses off!

 

Yeah, radar trends don't look too bad the way things are developing.  I can see how this might be of longer duration.

probably time to put away the models outside short range stuff....    radar watching time.  Honestly this one will be interesting to watch.   The margin of error is so tight it could mean the difference of several inches.     Models still are not agreeing.  Not just the nam and gfs, but the rgem as well.  The rgem has very little precip in the first 24 hours and then brings the heaviest precip up to about i70 after that.   The nceps front load the precip and dry us out after about 24 hours.

The gfs also has heavier precipitation northeast of columbus as well. While if gives you guys around 5" it gives 8" north east around zzv and newark
