**** it im going drinking

Not again.

 

Actually I'll take it. Drunk Snowlover is fun.

[Jaycee]

Don’t worry Lincoln posters, we with both see some decent snows with this one... mark my words.

I don’t know man. This one is really splitting hairs with this. Grand island is about 5 miles north, and it’s barely in the heavy snow band. It needs to sag 10 miles for us to get much, and it’s not budging

 

EDIT: rain check, it’s filling in S of Grand Island. Maybe we won’t get shafted after all? Fingers crossed boys

[Craig-OmahaWX]

Not trying to be like "Money" here lol just pointing an observation our about radar. I can't hide the fact for what i see. lol. Either way looks like a decent snow pack for all of us

[Minny_Weather]

Heavy rate, moderate flakes with a couple fat ones mixed in right now. Unfortunately it's still wind driven so it's only accumulating on North facing walls.

[Money]

Craig unintentionally becomes Money when it’s situations like this lol— still a chance boys. Hang tight

I thought you ignored me?

[snowstorm83]

Flake size isn't bad, good sign for this early in the game

[Jaycee]

I thought you ignored me?

Me? I don’t think I ever said that m8. Ignore button is like a safe space button, you have to be a mangina to use it.

[Money]

My bad

 

Just looked back and it was NEJeremy

 

And I agree with you about the ignore button

[CentralNebWeather]

Looks like on 0z NAM has come north some with tomorrow’s snow. More in Southern Nebraska in my area. Nice.

[Minny_Weather]

Ken Siemek is saying to still expect anything for tonight. 2-4" with isolated 5-6".

[Minny_Weather]

Not only is it building to the South, but it's sagging down near Kearney. We may get this after all.

[CentralNebWeather]

Snow has started here as it continues to sag from the north

[Craig-OmahaWX]

Big fat flakes here!

[Bryan1117]

Not only is it building to the South, but it's sagging down near Kearney. We may get this after all.

I think both Omaha and Lincoln are going to do pretty well out of this system... northwest side of Omaha is getting pounded right now per radar, and its filling in all across the metro. 

[Jaycee]

[CentralNebWeather]

Just went to get my son at a friends house, it is really coming down here. Enough blowing with the snow to cause drifting of existing and new snow. A balmy 6 degrees with -14 wind chill.

[Snowlover76]

Nice s smowhole

[Bryan1117]

Pound town here in Southwest Omaha, big fat flakes flying and visibility is very low. Snow is already starting to pile up quick. Hope this band can stay put for a couple hours.

[Hawkeye]

Creighton University webcam, ripping pretty good.

[Snowlover76]

well congrats Omaha. South isgetting the shaft

[Snowlover76]

this sucks

[Minny_Weather]

s**t this sucks

Doesn't take much to get you smashed, does it?

[Money]

One bottle of bud light and he’s gone

[snowstorm83]

Doesn't take much to get you smashed, does it?

 

I'm like 125 pounds...I'll have snowlover beat and be drunker than someone from Wisconsin. 

[Snowlover76]

I'm not drunk just pissed

[Minny_Weather]

I'm not drunk just pissed

Idk what radar you're looking at but the one I'm looking at looks pretty good.

[jcwxguy]

1" already here

[Minny_Weather]

I measured 0.25" here about 20 minutes ago. We're in a brief hole here. Light rate with small dendrites. I expect that to change soon.

[WBadgersW]

Liking where I sit just along I-80 in C.IA. HRRR is still S but the RAP is trending N. Love the radar trends.

Just like sleeping in a tent during a TS, nothing beats hot tenting in a snow event!!!

Wish I had that when I went camping 3 weeks ago...

[Jaycee]

Heavy snow is bout to move in and train LNK.

[Andrew NE]

It is just rippin out in elkhorn right now. It’s all moving SE so Lincoln will be getting in on it too hear after while.

[hlcater]

Dare I say I like where I sit with this? Being on the northern end of the heavy band ended up being the best spot to be for last night's snow, and radar seems to already be exhibiting an ENE motion to it. My guess for the heaviest band is going to be between CR/IC, sort of by bud's location. AFDs(particularly LOT) seems overly skeptical of guidance so I'm gonna go by radar and mesoananalysis more than normal. Not sure if I said it earlier, but I'm currently thinking 1.5-2" here, but I would be happy to end up conservative, only thing checking me is guidance.

[feddman]

Elkhorn 2"s so far

[Minny_Weather]

I'm mildly afraid of this thing sagging TOO far South. Looks like this thing is progressing pretty far South. I'd love to see the returns over Kearney right now.

I'm worried about this inching too far South for you too.

Dude right?!? It was supposed to go E but ESE for sire.

[Minny_Weather]

About to see some >35dBZ returns in person. That'll be a thriller.

[Snowlover76]

we can't win

[Andrew NE]

Counties added to the WWA on the south side of Lincoln maybe for the extensive southern movement.

[gosaints]

How much does Craig have...
