jaster220 Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 That's some pretty cold and dense air just NE of Georgian Bay.

CentralNebWeather Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 NWS Hastings update. .UPDATE...Issued at 851 PM CST Wed Dec 26 2018 The 18Z and 00Z mdls have nudged the snow a little further E since4 PM fcst package. Am very concerned that the RAP/NAM/GFS/EC are all indicating acore of 45-50 kt winds at 850 mb developing on the back side ofthe low after 09Z. MOS winds hv been shown to be 5-8 kt too lowin these situations. I incrsd winds above MOS...but fear I maynot hv incrsd winds enough. Nonetheless...we are now advertisinggusts up to 50 mph. We contemplated issuing a Blizzard Warning but after coordinatingwith neighboring WFO`s and in-house collaboration here...decidedinstead to beef-up the wording in the Warning/Advisory areas toinclude blzd-like conds. It is going to be nasty traveling thruthis band on I-80 tomorrow. Even where snow accums will be less significant...we are stillconcerned about blzd-like conds. Based on the magnitude of the winds and accumulating snow inchingmore to the E...svrl more counties hv been added to the Warningand Advisory areas. && 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clintbeed1993 Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 Blizzard Warning baby. Radar looks good out your way. Is the snow ripping good? I'm really jealous, seems like you've had a lot more luck with systems lately than me and we're in almost the same area. These storms have had stupid cutoffs and I'm always on the wrong side over further East. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintbeed1993 Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 Wow, that wind is REALLY cranking outside. It's gotta be gusting upwards of 40 mph. I can definitely see why the blizzard warnings have been hoisted. This is a very impressive system. I've had over an inch of rain from it so far and might squeeze out several inches of snow. Another disappointment in that regard. This is the 2nd system that soaked me with over an inch of rain this December. Ridiculous. I'm beyond over these 2 inch snowfalls and that's all I've had this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minny_Weather Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 Still in SE TX, but I'm gonna hijack this thread cuz it's the same system. QLCS (Seems more like an MCS actually) is moving thru now. This line isn't as severe as originally anticipated, but it is instead more dense return-wise and way slower. Leading edge just passed over here. This is the kind of stuff that always brings flooding problems to here. Gross. There also appears to be weak widescale rotation. Flying back to Lincoln today.
