michsnowfreak Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 FYI...rap is about a row of counties too far southeast with its snow/liquid line in northern Indiana. Thanks. I figured lol. Looks like hrrr is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 According to the CC radar loop I'm missing the snow by about 5 miles. Too early to start drinking? Start drinking now, and then passed out by noon. That way you'll miss the +RA. Some light freezing here this morning, but about to go above freezing. As expected...

michsnowfreak Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Nail biter Ridiculous gradient between rain and best snows. Actually I have seen far worse gradients. Going to be a very narrow band of the best snows...and it should be just north of Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 just north of DTW looks great based on radar trends...if they stay snow of course Based upon the radar at least currently the transition zone is stationary in IWX's and ILX's CWAs, if it does move up it has some distance between its current location and SEMI to cover first.

KeenerWx Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 The mixing line is probably about 10 miles south of me. Won't hold for too long, but I'm hoping to get until 9 A.M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Will admit, RAP does look sweet. Gets heavy snow started this morning and keeps up in the thick of it for the remainder of the day. Shows a couple opportunities for convective snows/possible TSSN as well starting around midday. Snow's started back up back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-L-E-K Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 getting close to 3" snow definitely isn't cement but still much nicer than the 17:1+ dust we're used to this year. Snowpack looking nice and healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 1/4mi vis at IKK...which probably means +SN, considering it usually lowballs visibility. +RA about to move in here.
