More organized trough this run, and a bit more neutral tilted earlier. This run is going to be more north and stronger/organized. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King James Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Hi. Models have been very consistent in the sucker hole. IKK just happens to be pretty much locked in it. That’s why I think a Watch for here is kinda silly. It’ll be an advisory at best for the LOT CWA portions, south of I-80. North of there, different story. Feels bad man. Hope you’re wrong but suspect you are not . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I can see a lull between the fgen band and the heavier band of deformation zone but one that large no. Just comical it has the lowest qpf bullseyed over me FWIW 18z NAM coming in with a similar screw hole across Northern ILX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This run is going to be more north and stronger/organized. I'll be honest. I'd rather sit in that FGEN band and get snow for 18hrs, than get a crush job for 10 hours and watch it snow to my north. I've watched that way to many times to my north from here in NW OH. Sometimes it's not about how much you get, but the duration and steadiness of it, for me anyway.

Harry Perry Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 GRR never fails to amaze me. A general “1-4” with accums near 6” along I-94” - but who needs to know? No mention of a SWS, WSW, WWA... nothing haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def some kind of forcing. But usually just south or north of an intense band is where you would see any subsidence.

They always go on the lower end. They never account for thermals, and the fact this could very well easily over perform. I think 3-5" is a pretty good bet. I will take that considering the fact we haven't seen that much snow since Novemeber lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
