Ahw, you'd like to take a swing at me, wouldn't you, boy? Tell ya what, you get down from the cities and I'll put you face first into a snow bank. Then we'll go have a beer and watch the Clones.

I know its a few days out, but does anyone have a decent projections on the amount of snow expected for the Bloomfield area. We got freezing fog this morning and all the schools delayed or closed, they are talking more of the same for tomorrow night. Thanks.
Too early to give any reliable snow amounts. As much as this storm is of interest the major pattern change to colder and more active behind it is to be watched as well. There could be another storm like this one in the Tuesday/Wednesday time frame next week.
Is like I've always said, 3-4 inches can be more than enough if there's plenty of ooomph behind it...
I swear I understand young dating metaphors less and less. I don't even get it, but I know it's filthy. Lets keep it kid friendly.
Have more faith in the weather on CF than KCCI
Seems like the heavier snows are trending more towards central Iowa rather than hitting us hard in eastern Iowa. Next few days are going to be interesting.
Checked with Frankie and you're all gonna die.
Liking the general setup for northern Missouri and southern Iowa to see the brunt of this system. However, there's a spoke of energy coming in out of the Dakotas at the same time which needs to be integrated into the whole scenario... That's inducing a bit of uncertainty on the northern edge of this system (Northern, NW Iowa, So. Minn., et al)
I see some signals to distinct bands of snow to produce decent marks but also see potential for the southern system to rob moisture so to speak.
The southern low has had fairly consistent marks for the last three days. Pretty high confidence of major snow impact either side of the MO/IA border.
It's that northern energy that leaves things more uncertain north of I80 as far as amounts. I'd still plan on snow in these areas up through about US 14, lacking the sharp cutoff gradient too... but just not as much as the southern part of the state too.
At this point, if you are model surfing, you should really be focused in on ensembles rather than one deterministic run. Right now they're still struggling on how to bring this northern wave into the equation.

I knew you were looking. Last time I pick a uri.al next to you.
