Weather Thread - 1/16 to 1/18

Thniking the upper end 8" -12" is likely for Mpls for no other reason than I am hosting a neighborhood party Saturday. So, of course, I'll be spending my shopping and food prep time shoveling instead. :rolleyes:
 
6-8" with 20 mph winds. Should be a fun one! I always secretly hope that my wife makes it to work and my kids to daycare, and then on her way home, she gets the kids and gets stranded at her parents. Hasn't happened yet in the 4 years we've been in our current house....shame.

Have been planning on taking Friday off for some time already. I will be VERY happy to not have to leave the house at all. Yay for four-day weekends (thanks MLK Jr. holiday)!

Very wide, 30,000 ft view first impression here.

I'm still leaning toward the under, or low end. Bad placement of surface low compared to a traditional state/C. Iowa-wide heavy snow event. Lots of warm air being pumped in.

At the moment, I expect precip type issues and/or a substantial warm layer aloft that crushes the snow ratios, especially southern half of Iowa. I'll get into it a bit more seriously this afternoon, but this looks odd.

It's not going to do anything. The meeting I was supposed to have on Friday was already cancelled. That means no weather events are going to happen.

Kinda surprised we haven't seen school closings for Friday already. The night before is no longer acceptable, we need at least two days notice now just to prepare for the day before the big storm gets here.

Interesting in that the ECMWF and NAM are trending colder, while the GFS remains the odd man out with warmer temperatures. No matter what, it's going to be messy.
