Thought your area did better but saw Cedar Rapids official was 3.1 for the last storm. I remember when I was at university of Iowa it seemed that the amped up storms always were already east of IC

I moved to the CR metro, so only got 3.1" which is disappointing because all indications a day out said 5-8" was definitely a possibility.

2021-22 Snowfall: (Hiawatha)

TOTAL: 10.2"

(12/28: 3.0") (12/29: 0.8") 

(1/1: 6.4")

The last few frames show some strengthening at 500mb...SLP seems to tighten up...we'll see what the GFS shows...

 

Seems like the energy goes from being positively tilted to a more neutral look down in the Plains...

The jet "speed max" intensifies during this period...a lot can still change how this main energy develops after the WAA snows

My weatherman said earlier this evening that if it stays all snow, I am looking at 6-12inches! :blink:
