Niko Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Where are/did you see that? If I looked out far enough, ofc I would have some. Did you mean this coming week, or when exactly? NWS local only mentioning a chance of mixed RN/SN later this coming week. No hype via GRR - guarantee u that amigoTWC, apparently was high on something. It all disappeared from my forecast now, once the 4pm discussion rolled on through, although, cold temps remain, w highs in the 30s and lows in the 20s and scattered snowshowers towards the end of next week.

Tom Posted November 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Today's clipper type system is rather robust on radar when looking at how much of the nation is being effected by it on radar. Almost a trowel-like feature has developed overnight as it is beginning to strengthen and go somewhat neg tilt later today. When this thing cycles back through in the winter, I could see this being a pretty large winter storm. http://images.intellicast.com/WxImages/CustomGraphic/sfcmap.gif 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted November 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 So, we have the UKIE/EURO on board with a central Plains/GL's cutter for the late week system. In fact, both Ukie/Euro paint a significant amount of snow across the entire state of KS/N MO. Even though both models have lesser amounts towards the GL's, there is still room for development in future runs as I see the models trying to phase this system across the GL's/Ontario region. This, by the way, is likely going to be part of the LRC's long term longwave trough position. Here was the 00z Ukie... @LNKWx, if today's runs come back on the GFS/GGEM, it might be time to fire up a thread. 00z EPS signal for snow continues to highlight the Plains (NE/KS and into N MO/S IA) as the epicenter and lesser amounts towards the MW/GL's. Let's see what shakes out today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Paul Storm Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Light rain and a few wet snowflakes falling this morning. Currently 35F. Gonna be a wet couple of days around here.

westMJim Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Looking out the window the leaves are still falling at a steady clip here in my area. Some of the trees are bare but there are still a lot of leaves yet to fall on some of the trees. It should be noted that there are a lot of Oak trees in my area and they tend to drop their leaves late. But there are several types of Maples that also have many leaves on them and I have a Red Norway Maple in the front yard that just does not want to give up it leaves. In many years I just let the wind take care of its leaves. (and for the most part the wind will do that) Light rain with falling leaves here with a temperature of 40° 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too surprised tbh on the bolded. Looking back on past November snows around my region reveals that 3-4" events happen often enough, with a few going bigly scattered across the past century. Most better storms were in the 2nd half in recent times ('89, '04, '15), while the era when we got colder earlier in autumn produced the notable storms in the 1st half ('32, '51, '66). Certainly if we do indeed score a significant snowfall this week, it will stand out in this era (post 1985) of warm Novembers. 1 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Paul Storm Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Radar starting to light up to the south. Some monster flakes falling now. Temps are above 0C so it will be tough to accumulate but it looks nice. I noticed this morning a few bald eagles have returned for the winter. That’s a sure sign the seasons are about to flip for good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 GFS has been showing a clipper next Saturday coming through Iowa for a couple runs now. Current timing would have light accumulations falling during Iowa's game with Northwestern. I haven't been to a game with accumulating snow falling yet, so that would be cool to see. I've seen flurries and we had a snowstorm end just hours prior to a game in 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with the EC at onset, which in the protected Mitt isn't unreasonable tbh at this time of year. Evap cooling will usually kick in during the heavier precip with rain and/or drizzle on either side. Temps as shown fall off thru the day Friday into the mid-20's (brr). This isn't that deep of a system so the cold won't be rushing in like you get with a true bomb storm. This would be just a nice modest beginning to the snow season as currently depicted.

bud2380 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 Canadian has no system at all on Thursday. In fact it shows a clipper moving into the upper midwest Thursday night. So, lots to be figured out yet. If the Euro takes a big swing and a miss on this storm, that will be concerning for future systems. It was the first one to show a major snow storm for this coming Tuesday and has since majorly backed off, so not a great start to the winter tracking season for the Euro if it whiffs on Thursday's potential system as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points, but I think the issue the Euro is having is that it's leaning a little too aggressive with the thermal profiles and/or phasing of the branches. They kinda go hand-in-hand tho since the N wave piece delivers the cold in this shoulder season. Should be less of an issue once we're in true winter. The GFS in contrast is leaning a little too warm with it's thermal profiles and thus you get what NebWx posted with the Oct snowstorm where the GFS didn't have snow portrayed until basically game-time. Again, both will be less of an issue in DJFM as both should be plenty cold to reflect p-type close enough unless yby sits on the mix line, lol 1 Quote Winter 2023-24 Snow Total = 53.1" (90% Normal Season) Largest Storm: 12" (1/12-13) Oct: 0.1 Nov: 2.9 Dec: 7.5 Jan: 31.7 Feb: 6.0 Mar: 4.3 Apr: 0.1 Avg = 59.2" (Harrison): 2023-24 = 53.1" Avg = 45.0" (KDTW): 2022-23 = 33.5" 2021-22 = 35.6" Avg = 49.7" (KRMY): 2020-21 = 36.2" 2019-20 = 48.0" 2018-19 = 56.1" 2017-18 = 68.3" 2016-17 = 52" 2015-16 = 57.4" 2014-15 = 55.3" 2013-14 = 100.6" (coldest & snowiest in the modern record!) 2012-13 = 47.2" 2011-12 = 43.7" Legit Blizzards (high winds and dbl digit snows): Feb 2011, Dec 2009, Jan 2005, Dec 2000, Jan 1999, Mar 1998, Nov 1989, Jan 1982, Jan 1978, Jan 1977, Apr 1975, Mar 1973, Jan 1967, Feb 1965, Jan 1918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
