Clinton Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 Good trends on the models this morning for KC, Chicago, and points south and east. @OKwx2k4 you may want to invest in a snow blower lol. Closer to home those of us that live in Eastern Kansas and Western Missouri know it's never easy to get a good snow. We have a different enemy this time, it's not warm air but dry air. Good luck to all. 12z NAM 12z RDPS 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I flipped through the 06z EPS ensembles and a lot of them show a large precip shield swinging through the MW/Lower Lakes region. Once this energy gets into the 4 corners on Sat/Sun the models should have a good handle on this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 @Clinton For the 2nd storm next week, 1 model takes it so far east, that we get nothing and the other crushes SMI and other peeps that are in the path of the storm.

Hawkeye Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 It's going back to dry for much of Iowa. Four runs ago the Euro suddenly showed the upper energy cutting up to Iowa, which dropped a few inches here. It was doing that because it had the PV lobe quickly getting out of the way. However, since then the Euro has trended toward the PV hanging back further into the lakes, which leads to the new energy being weaker and also tracking farther southeast. For any additional significant snow to fall in places like Iowa and Minnesota, the cold will have to back off. 2 Quote season snowfall: 34.8" '22-23: 30.2" '21-22: 27.1" '20-21: 52.5" '19-20: 36.2" '18-19: 50.2" '17-18: 39.5" Average snowfall: ~30" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At hr 84 it is closing in on Chicago and Michigan moving NE The first piece of energy does well on it's own. It will be interesting to see if this continues and if it can work west some over the next 24hrs.
