St Paul Storm Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 NAM and ICON are in the northern camp compared to the Canadian and GFS. Euro is in between. Barely any snow south of the MN/IA border on the 18z NAM. Wouldn’t be fun to track if they agreed would it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacsh Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 NAM and ICON are in the northern camp compared to the Canadian and GFS. Euro is in between. Barely any snow south of the MN/IA border on the 18z NAM. Wouldn’t be fun to track if they agreed would it? Euro will win this, but that's just my opinion. It does well with these systems.

jaster220 Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 0z NAM has quite the burst of snow S of the low track for SMI. I suppose iffy thermals could spell trouble, but verbatim I like the look for Sunday night: fwiw, my inlaws east of Moscow are suddenly in a very snowy period and their pattern aligns with ours wrt wx. Sometimes they will lead ours by about 8-10 days. 2 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 February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 I’d say the winter storm watch area looks good. Areas around the perimeter look good for 1-4”. Won’t meet my 4” requirement for snow blowing. But I might fire it up anyway. Need to make sure it’s in working order for all the snowstorms we’ll get in March/April/early May... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
