Jaycee Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 WHOAAA. GFS I see you. Showing some intense wraparound snow on Monday, possibly thundersnow for NEB. I'll take it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted March 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 The second, in a series of storms, to effect our sub forum is poised to develop across the Upper MW/Plains states late this weekend into early next week. With all the blocking around, this should be even slower than our current system effecting the eastern part of the sub. This system is rather interesting as it will bowl across the MW region with snow and rain/snow mix. I'll prob start a thread for this system later tonight.

NEJeremy Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 I can't wait to see how yet another epic pattern on the models will give Omaha/Lincoln another 1-2" snowfall! That's all the previous amazing patterns have delivered this winter, so I'm sticking with the consistency. I'm hoping for March severe weather vs any cold/snowy pattern at this point.

Niko Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Looks like SEMI is not done w snow just yet as more snow is in the forecast next week........ NOAA: Models have been very consistent in showingwell defined low level cold air advection occurring as warmadvection/midlevel theta e ridge lifts into the state. At this time,it appears that a widespread blanket of light snow will be likelyMonday night. Confidence in the forecast quickly unravels withrespect to the likelihood of precipitation for the middle of theweek. It also remains quite cold next week w highs in the 30s and lows in the teens and 20s.

It was a nice snowstorm. I believe Snowfall tally so far this Winter in Detroit is roughly at 58". Impressive indeed.

Hawkeye Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Last night's euro was the coldest run, yet, for the week following the Monday system. As much as I want to see warmth and thunderstorms, significant stretches of chilly weather are something we have to put up with in March. The ensembles bring us back to 50 by mid month.

Hawkeye Posted March 3, 2018 Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Remember the first wave of the big multi-wave snow back on February 8th? It had a razor-sharp southern edge here in Iowa. The big snow bullseye was the Fort Dodge area, which received 11 inches. The rest of the snow pack from that period is long gone, but that one spot is still there. 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...
