jaster220 Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 From GRR's pm disco (that I just read tbh). Anyone familiar with this model version they mentioned doing so well? -- Accumulating snow into this evening --We will continue our headlines as they are with no changes. Thejet dynamics forced snow event will be at it`s max snowfall ratesin the 5 pm till 7 pm time frame. Based on the HRRRdev3 12z run(theonly hi-res model to show the lead snow band as it actually was)shows snowfall rates of 0.5 to 1.0 inches per hour from near(just south of) I-96 from 5 pm till 7 pm and comes up with total(using variable snow density) of 3 to 4 inches near I-96, 4 to 6inches for our two northern rows of counties and 1 to 2 inches forour southern 2 rows of counties. Given we had 1.5 inches from theevent at our office so far, this means we need only another 1.5inches to reach the model forecast.

Stormy Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 As far as weather goes, there is less snow now than this morning since a bit more melted today. I ended up with 0.07" of rain today with a bit of sleet mixed in at first. And on Friday I picked up only .5" of fluffy snow on top of the old snow. It's been boring lately but winter was active and much wetter than normal so far here.Thinking it over a bit maybe this winter wasn't a lot wetter than normal except for January.

Hawkeye Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 All the model runs that tried to dip the heavy band into Iowa were wrong. The Canadian was way off. 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...
