8-9 days out though. Still time for this storm to disappear.

GFS further south. Blasts Nebraska to Wisconsin. As usual the low tracks right through Iowa. I think every major storm this winter has tracked through Iowa.

Euro shows a high of 60 in Iowa city next Saturday and 64 the following Monday. That sounds amazing, bring it on.

1.5" for me. That puts me right around 10" for the season. And it looks like this could be it for awhile or maybe the rest of the season. Bring on spring!

GFS coming in a touch south too.

.27" for Norfolk Nebraska which seems to be in the bullseye

.06" for Lincoln and .15" for Omaha

Euro with .14" for Iowa city. .11" for Cedar Rapids. .2" for Des Moines and .25" for Sioux City

Euro is now showing a moderate strength clipper on Thursday for Iowa into Illinois. .2" qpf for Cedar Rapids with cold temps would mean high snow ratios too

Euro and EPS with a massive ridge in the west by day 10. Warm air streams well into Canada. Most of the us with the exception of New England appear to be at or above normal temps for that time period.

Euro shows virtually no backside snow.

Ggem surface low runs through Iowa then into eastern Wisconsin. Track looks pretty locked in. Iowa has been the low pressure magnet this year. Just about every decent storm this year has had the surface low track right through the state.

I'm rooting for 60 degrees by my birthday. Feb 23rd. Get this winter over with

More significant changes on the euro. Weaker and further south with SLP but less qpf and much less snow. Energy looks split and doesn't seem to phase until it gets well to the east of Chicago

GFS is way north of the euro. Doesn't bring in any precip at all to Iowa. Not exactly sure on the timing but it's seems to be coming in much faster than the euro as well

Perhaps we should put the real kiss of death on this storm and start a thread for it...

If accuweather ever updates it I will. That site sucks. I like the text output when it works but next year I'll just pay the extra and subscribe to wxbell

Accuweather text output seemed to show some snow for Chicago as well. It's a little hard to tell for sure but regardless it was an improvement

SLP went from UP of MI yesterday to S MI today. So significant improvement for us snow starved in Iowa and Illinois

Much further south with 850s this run compared to yesterday. Even has snow as far south as i80 in iowa

Models have the low tracking over Iowa again. It's amazing how that keeps happening. I'm not remotely optimistic here. I'm actually rooting for an early spring and a warmup now. It hasn't been a long winter in Iowa but I'm over it at this point anyway.

Not sure yet Tom. Accuweather is being it's typical glitchy self and is only showing 7 days of output instead of 10.

.08" for ORD as well

No maps yet but .08" qpf for CEdar Rapids Saturday night. About a quarter inch for the twin cities so as usual heaviest band looks to setup further north
