I like the direction the 12z ICON is headed.

Not a bad look, that's for sure.....

We're getting baby steps from the GFS, but Iowa needs toddler steps.

 

I would like to see a few inches of insulation for the garden before the cold arrives.

Though it will only last a day or two- this is some serious cold with some serious temp gradients that I don't think guidance will catch on until HRRR/RAP with 6-8 hours. (as far as squeezing out snow) Near 50F gradient from DSM to SW MN- sfct.us_mw.png

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.

That's actually quite a step in the right direction (N and W) -- compared to previous runs but likely to little too late for IA folk.

eh, not too bad I guess.  Nothing major, but a solid snowfall for some areas.

The Canadian is just holding steady and not inching nw like some other models.  It has little if anything for Iowa.

EURO and ICON look great for K.C. and other parts of Missouri per the snowfall maps, but, if temps are 33-35, snowing during the day, you just can’t buy those amounts.

 

The most frustrating thing might be the fact that 6-8 hours after the slug of moisture, temps crash.

 

As a snow contractor, my hope is that it comes in faster Wednesday morning, say 3am and maybe the cold comes in fast enough tomorrow night to freeze up the slush and water on the pavement???

 

Nonetheless, trends are better today. Hopefully the data is 4 degrees too warm!!

EC with a big jump in totals today due to the fact it's colder than the op.  Good trends!

Yup, I was just gonna say...looking a lot better than just 24-48 hours ago...the King for the win???  This is prob the best set up for Chicago all season long and not having to deal with marginal temps, storm track, RN/SN line, etc...then again, we have seen dramatic shifts inside 3 days so I'm not getting to excited yet.  More importantly, it looks to stay cold post storm so anyone who does get snow will get to enjoy #realwinter for a couple days!  LOL

Don't worry, the office has already decided. WWA for 1-3"  ;) (maybe we'll get a Warning next winter)
