beaugie Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Hoping we get hit hard here in Whitewater WI, that last storm was a little letdown, only got around 3" but it was so wet and stuck to everything. Beautiful base for the next storm tomorrow. Local weather is saying 6-10" and these models typically seem a little high, I'd be thrilled with 10+ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 3 hours ago, Hoosier said: 00z Euro is brutal out in Hawkeye's area. Sheesh... after greatly improving for the previous two runs, the Euro just totally pulled the rug out from under Cedar Rapids/Iowa City. It basically has the storm splitting around us now. The UK did the same thing tonight. Now the 06z NAMs have both cut us way down. The EPS mean also just cratered for Iowa. I'm suddenly very worried about this.
