St Paul Storm Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 this stuff is going to be a real treat to shovel, that much is for sure. Concrete mess at the start. Ratios should improve when the main show starts tonight though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellona Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 At this point, I'll be happy with 4 inches in the 'loo. If I get more it'll just be a nice surprise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKEKC Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 Things about to get a fresh blanket of white in KC. WWA for 1-3 inches of snow and lots of wind. Should be a wintry day tomorrow. Crazy thing is, local mets including Lezak mention nothing of this until yesterday evening. Now, we could have blizzard conditions tomorrow. I'll take it. Latest NAM looks like a solid 2-3 inches of snow in the city. Good luck everyone. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowstorm83 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 It seems like short range models including the NAM are picking up on a dry slot from Lincoln to Wahoo. So it kind of falls apart and then gets it’s act together again once it’s to the south.

Insane gradient setting up. If the low aligns just right, seward and a few counties to the west could get into the fun including my area. Even an inch of snow with these winds will be a major problem. I seen it a month ago with the previous blizzard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlgamer Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 WWA issued here for up to 1" with up to 60 mph winds.

Stormy Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 It’s been snowing here for awhile now, but it’s melting except on top of the old snow pack which we still have a solid cover of. Radar looks decent if it keeps developing and filling in. Really can’t tell what this weird system might produce. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Looks like this will be a non event down here. It’s too warm to accumulate and the snow is light. Radar is showing that it’s not going to last much longer here and the wrap around will miss us to the west. So I suppose this will go down as a trace here. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
