Kaner88 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Latest run of the HOP WRF is all-in, thanks to the Air Force method. 30"+ along the lake. Frame-worthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 OH MY. It's like the models are trying to outdo each other tonight lol. Tropical PAC moisture feed FTW in a big way. Any new thoughts on the lake effect potential? I keep hoping to see some model explicitly hang up the band but not really seeing it so far. Can't imagine what kind of totals there might be at the southern end of the lake if it's not as transient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

extremewx52 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 This storm has stolen all the moisture from the equator and thrown it our way. I have never seen a tropical moisture plume disconnect like that. Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundersnow12 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 The HopWRF makes the backup RUC look like the Euro Anyways, I think the sfc low ends up passing over/very close to Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wxman1952 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Feel pretty good where I'm at here in Toledo. I'm thinking 12-16 here. Looks like the winds will really pick up tomorrow afternoon and pretty much will be blizzard conditions. Does this look realistic to you guys??? My sister lives on the west side of Toledo. I wish I was there instead of up here, but at least the last runs have upped my forecasted amounts. Hang on down there. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeye_wx Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 100% rain here now. Satellite dish is out from the wet snow caked to it up on the roof. Gonna have to head out in a sec and brush that off. Interesting... I did not expect anyone to transition back to rain, especially as far north as you are. I'm still only at 0.8" after 2 3/4 hours of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gone back over to all snow again with nice dendrites. Was very surprised to look out and see all rain after being all snow for quite awhile.

Centriptic Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 dtx has not updated since 6pm... I was wondering about this myself. I feel like, outside of the storm warnings, they don't hold much merit to this one. Point and Click hasn't change at all either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
