That's crazy the weekend storm is sitting over the Bering Sea. I'm currently sitting under it duck hunting on St. Paul Island. It's been brutal. Peak was yesterday afternoon right after the center of circulation moved through. Had gusts over 60. Finally looks like it's going to be calmer today. what do you do up there? |

The 12z NAM look pretty good, it is showing a slightly weaker storm moving into the Texas panhandle, hour 84 with more northern stream influence. Temps are actually at or below freezing from I70 north . It looks like it would be trending in the southern route of guidance if it went beyond 84 hours

King Eider and Harlequin are the main ones. Saw a few Spectated Eiders, Emperor Geese, and Scoters too. |

Well some of them know about our existence, so... They all know of this and likely all read this place. Admittedely or not. Agreed! I’ve noticed the same thing but we all should be proud to know they do peak in. Lots of valuable knowledge on here that in my opinion does not ever compare close to any other place for so much critical information. I really wish fish would have popped in for the last storm lol. Here’s to a good 12z suite folks! 🍻 |

I have real concerns about this thing going further north than modeled (wonder why that is?). We have seen that trend and I would expect it to continue, especially if we see the trend for a stronger storm.

Temps are actually at or below freezing from I70 north . It looks like it would be trending in the southern route of guidance if it went beyond 84 hours I submit that a slightly weaker system moving into the texas panhandle wld allow cold air to remain in place ahead of the system and not erode it so readily.it therefore might be trending to a southern route. Now i havent seen any models but as the system continues its east southeast track, a favorable outcome would be that it hits a ridge of high pressure and closes off to our south. Thats not unreasonable for this season. Will be interesting to see how the next euro run handles this. Gfs only a guideline but the 06 gfs looked pretty wintry around here. |

Had to cancel an Open House last weekend to be postponed for this weekend. I was thinking we could squeeze it in Saturday morning but that's looking like a less likely option as well. Snow doesn't slow everyone down but significant ice will bring the city to a screeching halt. I'm hoping the onset occurs later than currently predicted but that might be wishful thinking.

12z Icon is trying to go Kaboom.
Close to some benchmark tracks and trying to intensify at the right time.

We have seen that trend and I would expect it to continue, especially if we see the trend for a stronger storm. The stronger solution is also slower to eject which gives the cold air more time to advance south and keep the system from pulling north. Ya the front end might be warmer but the backside could be really fun(see euro) |

Perfect memphis low that leads to classic rain to blizzard conditions on GFS.

GFS has it stronger with more snow for the I-70 corridor. I need to do myself a favor and kiss this one goodbye. Dry slot city for southern half of the viewing area with some wind driven snow showers. There's my call.

Gfs looks great from I 70 north , rain to snow, there will probably be a period of sleet in between the transition zone . I hope it doesn’t rain to much and ruin our snow pack . It’s going to be nasty though , with all the snow pack/piles around, then cold rain , then possibly some sleet followed by several inches of snow. Then you add high winds and crashing temps with lows in the single digits Saturday night. Not a fun time to be out on the roads.

Otherwise like I mentioned yesterday we are looking at a fairly narrow band with a lot of folks in dry slot city. |

Models are always slow with Artic air..... let’s see if this is the trend

I swear if I hear one more person complain about their precious little snowpack getting rained on I might lose it. End rant  |

The new snow would blow around on top of the crust with little friction to impede it. |

Somebody post the GFS tropical tidbits snow accumulation map This one? It includes sleet and is only using 10:1 ratios so not sure how accurate that is

Question, seeing the northern trend being brought up very often. Will this extremely cold air not help keep this storm down? Current temp forecast of 5° For the low has me wondering. Thats a strong front pushing through.

Heres a snow map that uses the Kuchera method. It really isnt all that different from the tropical tidbits one  |

Has the energy with this storm been sampled at all?

Any chance the models are too slow with the arrival of the cold air on Friday?

May I ask a polite question? How far south is it looking for the dry slotted southerners? I was inquiring nice! Thanks!

I don't like that one. Try again. |

Still out over the Pacific north of Hawaii and south of the Aleutian chain. Certainly no vital RAOB sampling. Lots of satellite sampling. Maybe some bouys/ships in the vicinity for surface obs. Maybe, or maybe not, some aircraft obs at cruise altitude in the vicinity.
