Jan 14th-16th Potent Hybrid Clipper

Recommended Posts

The 3kNAM is even farther west than the 12k.  The 12k has 2.6" in Cedar Rapids by 00z Saturday.  The 3k has nothing.  I would likely end up with only 1-2" if the run went beyond 60 hrs, which would be the driest run of any model so far.

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"

Models are cruel go look at what the 6z GFS does to me lol.

lol...I saw that. Brutal. The 12z NAM drops a snow hole pretty close to me. Not sure what we ever did to these models to make them dog us like this...lol

Is it realistic to use the kuchera ratios for this clipper? What kind of ratios should we expect?

 

As of now, I think 3-5" is a good bet for CR.

It should be colder on the east and north side away from the L so ratios should be a bit more than 10:1

We have the Omaha and KC members riding the western edge, hoping for a nudge west.  We have Cedar Rapids and Iowa City members riding the east edge, hoping we end up on the inside of the sharp edge.  The central Iowa members get to relax.

Well if Lincoln gets 1" and Omaha gets 6" I think I'd rather not be here anyways LOL. Tricky forecast for OAX, I think they probably include Omaha in the watch and leave LNK out. One thing is certain - Indianapolis will be cold and dry. As long as you ignore the GFS....which is so far NW I would probably have issues getting out of there on Sunday. 

Snowfall in Lincoln, NE:

2017-18: 21.4"   2018-19: 55.5"   2019-20: 17.6"   2020-21: 49.4"   2021-22: 5.1" 🤮

Average: 26"
