Hawkeye Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 There are more light rain and freezing rain reports in central/western Iowa this morning than snow reports. The 06z NAM came back nw some with the second wave after the 00z Iowa miss. Hopefully, this morning's runs hold serve.

Mi_Matthew Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Snowfall 1-3" still looks good for my area.I hope you're right buddy. I got a bad feeling about this one though. I think the E/SE flow off the unfrozen lakes Erie/St. Clair is going to be just enough to keep us rain while Oakland County does well. Again, hope I'm wrong but I've seen that scenario play out several times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, to directly show the image in your post (if that's what you want to do) you want to right click on the image itself and "copy image address". Then click on the square image icon (directly under the emoji icon) and paste the image url.Thanks for this.

Grizzcoat Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Been under one of the heavier bands of snow (heavier E of me) for about 45 mins. Not near the accumulation the HRRR and RAP are showing. I think it;s thermals and time of day. But still probably .75"- 1" or so- but I'd take values at 75% or so at this juncture if everything stays the same. Nighttime will be different as its clear radiation and temps are having an impact. 2 Quote The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
