Money Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 And just looking at the op 6z GFS, it shows 6-8+ band from N of STL to C IN and N. Ohio. Much different from 12z. GGEM has been consistent for the last 3-4 days so maybe the GFS is catching on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Check this out for eye candy. I posted a map last night of a lower lakes cutter next Tue/Wed on the ensemble run and 12z Euro OP still on board and would fit with the pattern. From this storm alone, if the snowfall amounts transpire the way its being advertised now, all time snow records for the season would be shattered in IL/IN/MI. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Dubzz Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Interesting to see, Tom. Still a while out so who knows what happens and I'm sure the Euro may even lose it for a little bit, but I could see this storm happening.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 It just hasn't been your winter in the Plains this season. The pattern has been relentless around the lakes/Midwest and you guys can't buy a decent snow storm this year. As the seasonal jet stream shifts farther north maybe you guys can cash in on a big Spring time snow storm before winter is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 With a +AO and a +NAO that storm on the EURO could cut far NW or ... maybe disappear. The EURO has not been doing so hot this year. A lot of mets and models siding with mild next week (average or just slightly below average). --- NAM showing south trending system for Wednesday. 1 Mercer Island, 350 ft 2021-2022: 11.6", 02/21 2020-2021: 15.6" 2019-2020: ~10" 2018-2019 winter snowfall total: 29.5" 2017-2018: 9.0", 2016-2017: 14.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim the weatherman Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 sometimes you get models that are right and sometimes they are always wrong that the storm on the euro can cut far nw or not seeing it at all in this case that the euro could be wrong on this one like you said geos about the +ao and +nao all depends the postition of the polar vortex.
