seems very reasonable. Only diff is I would probably shave off the northern edge of the 1-3" across Ohio by about 25 miles.

I fully expect ILN to start major backpeddling this afternoon and drop the warning.

Just came back in from an appt and saw several landscape trucks on the roads with the plows and salt spreaders mounted....gotta feel for those guys.

I don't agree with such a narrow tongue of 3-6" in Indiana. Also I would probably expand the 6-12" into at least the far western portion of Indiana.

...Which is already either negligent or busted, or both...
N TN and E KT are getting some decent snow right now and have 1"+ accumulations and gaining... Also, they may make it a practice not to include the NC high country but in another thread a couple of eye witnesses said they're getting some heavy snows at this time...

I don't know if anyone saw this, and I just now got around to checking it, but this is the WRF snow accumulation from yesterday's 18z run. This model has had a good track record yesterday. Will be interesting to compare yesterday's run with the one that comes out this afternoon.

true, however very isolated, localized, and elevation-dependent. I'm sure the warm air will win out in those places later this afternoon too.

I've already got about 8" through 12z? Hey I'll take that!

No: "Heavy snow being reported by my spotters in southern and southeastern KY. This is not an elevation thing as even the valley locations are reporting snow. Wet bulbing at it's best!

Reports of 1"-2" on the ground in some areas. Viewer pics are pretty cool!"

...Did you actually look before you said "...however very isolated, localized, and elevation-dependent."

Aside from the fact, it sounds like you are defending Accuweather?? Why would you...? Unless you are an employee there and/or carry some form of related agenda...

The 12Z runs of the GFS and NAM both bring about 0.4" QPF through. It seems like 3" or more isn't entirely out of the question at this time.

Tip,

I'll accept your smartarse tone when you can finally pull a forecasting accuracy rate out of your butt greater then 20%. Until then my respect for you remains one level above blizz22.

It is quite amazing how quickly the storm's snowfall totals peter out from a full- fledged and widespread blizzard in the plains to absolutely nothing east of the apps.

What's with the adversarial overtones...
You just got squarely busted with limited data and a presumption ...and you're coming back at me with this...

The original comments were not directed at you, I was commenting on the inaccuracies of Accuweather, so why you've made it personal is absolutely silly.

Moreover, since you have been black and white demonstrated as being completely obtuse in the matter, how the hell would you know what my forecasting accurracy has been...

There's no communicating with someone whose mind cannot be penetrated with logic... I guarantee you, you voted for Bush...
