More rain continues to develop as this long line on rain moves north.Haven't seen much rain in the Omaha metro this morning outside of a few light showers and drizzle, however it looks like that will be changing here pretty quickly as a large swath of precipitation is building to our southwest and moving this way. The NWS forecast is still showing 1-3 inches of rain across Eastern Nebraska with isolated amounts of 4-5 inches the rest of the today into tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 The euro and hrrr are not on the same page. The euro keeps the heavy rain well north of CR/IC and doesn't get any rain in here til late tonight. The HRRR progresses the line more eastward and brings storms in here by evening.

The really heavy band is in northern Linn County, so any slight shift south puts Cedar Rapids in that heavy band. I feel good about this, looks like areas south of interstate 80 may not get much from this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind still blowing out of the north between 15-20 mph. We are going to have our football practice in one of our gyms after school as our practice field has standing water in places and we don't want to take any chances of an injury due to slipping. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 What I'm concerned about is several models (euro, gfs, icon, hrrr) are showing the same scenario.... elevated storms stream north of CR/IC, then the surface storms farther south quickly dry up as they reach the CR/IC area. 1 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OKwx2k4 Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Hope you folks north of Kansas enjoy the cooldown a little below seasonal norms over the next 72 hours. I'm jealous. I've still got to wait a few days but it does finally appear that cooler air is on it's way. Feels like I've been waiting forever.

Yep. This was going to be the problem for us. The front got stuck to the north, so all the elevated, training convection is missing north. Now we have one chance for a good storm and that's from the line from Des Moines southward. The HRRR continues to show that line crapping out just before reaching our area. The latest HRRR shows very little rain for CR/IC.

Stormy Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 That lone storm east of CR appears to be a supercell.

Not a great day for outdoor activities or anything, but feels so much better than yesterday. Hopefully these periods of active weather continue into winter.
