CONSENSUS OF SOLUTIONS FOR TODAY THRU THU NIGHT AS THE STRONG WINTER
STORM LIFTS INTO AND THRU THE MID MS VALLEY. NAM/GFS DO REMAIN
A COUPLE OF THE DRIER /ECMWF/GEM WETTER/SNOWIER/ MODELS FOR THE FCST
AREA WITH THIS SYSTEM. DPROG/DT OF 500MB HGTS AT 01.00Z SHOWED
MODELS HAD CONVERGED TOWARD A CONSENSUS OF THE 30.00Z AND 31.00Z
RUNS ON BOTH THE NORTHERN/SOUTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVES OVER THE
CENTRAL CONUS...WITH NO ONE MODEL OFFERING DISTINCTLY BETTER RUN-TO-
RUN CONSISTENCY. BETTER MODEL CONSENSUS SEEN THRU 36HRS AS THE
SOUTHERN STREAM WAVE/UPPER LOW LIFTS INTO IL/IN AND THE NORTHERN
STREAM WAVE DROPS INTO THE 4-CORNERS REGION. THE BETTER MODEL
CONSENSUS AND TREND TOWARD A COMPROMISE SOLUTION OF THE EARLIER
RUNS/MODEL DIFFERENCES CONTINUES THRU 84HRS/THU NIGHT. TREND DOES
LOOK TO BE A BIT SLOWER WITH THE NEXT NORTHWEST FLOW SHORTWAVE TO
DROP INTO THE REGION THU NIGHT. CHECK OF OBS VS. MODEL DATA AT
01.06Z SHOWED MODELS QUITE GOOD WITH THE CENTRAL CONUS MASS FIELDS.
PER WV IMAGERY...MODELS GENERALLY LOOKED GOOD WITH THE LOCATION OF
SHORTWAVE FEATURES ACROSS NOAM...BUT ALL LOOKED A BIT WEAK WITH THE
SHORTWAVE OF INTENSE INTEREST HEADED INTO WEST TX. PER THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS RADARS...A BLEND OF THE MODELS APPEARS BEST WITH THE
DEVELOPING BAND OF HEAVIER PRECIP FROM NORTHERN TX THRU OK TO
SOUTHWEST MO. WITH THE TIGHTER MODEL CONSENSUS AND TREND TOWARD THE
COMPROMISE OF THE EARLIER RUNS...PREFERRED A MODEL/ENSEMBLE BLEND
THIS CYCLE. WITH THE IMPROVED MODEL CONSENSUS...SHORT-TERM FCST
CONFIDENCE GOOD...EVEN WITH A MAJOR WINTER STORM IN THE PICTURE.

FOR THE SHORT TERM...-SN DIMINISHING QUICKLY ACROSS THE FCST AREA
SINCE ABOUT 08Z. WILL CANCEL PRESENT WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY WITH 4
AM PACKAGE AND HANDLE 4AM-8AM TIME PERIOD AND ANY LINGERING -SN
WITH AN SPS. FCST THINKING HAS NOT CHANGED MUCH IN THE PAST 24-36HRS
AS THE VERY DYNAMIC SOUTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE LIFTS INTO SOUTHERN MO
BY 00Z THEN DEVELOPS A CLOSED 500MB CIRCULATION OVER NORTHERN IL/IN
BY 12 WED. AS IT DOES...AN IMPRESSIVE SFC-700MB LOW LIFTS INTO THE
MID MS/WESTERN OH VALLEY TONIGHT. ON THIS TRACK...THE STRONGEST OF
THE 925-700MB THERMODYNAMIC/FN FORCING/LIFT REMAINS JUST SOUTH/EAST
OF THE FCST AREA. HOWEVER...THE STRONG HGT FALLS/PV ADVECTION ALOFT
AHEAD OF THE SHORTWAVE AND SOME IMPRESSIVE 300MB AGEOSTROPHIC
FLOW/DIVERGENCE BETWEEN COUPLED 100-130KT 300MB JET MAXES DO MOVE
ACROSS THE FCST AREA TONIGHT. SPECIFIC HUMIDITIES OF 4-6 G/KG IN THE
INFLOW AIRMASS FOR THE FORCING/LIFT TO WORK WITH...ALONG WITH NEAR
NEUTRAL SUITABILITIES AND EVEN SOME WEAK CAPE. AN IMPRESSIVE SWATH
OF 12+ INCHES OF SNOW EXPECTED TO FALL FROM MO NORTHEAST ACROSS
EASTERN IA/SOUTHEAST WI...NORTHERN/CENTRAL IL WITH STRONG LOWER
LEVEL FORCING/LIFT AND BROAD/STRONG DIVERGENCE ALOFT. TIGHTER MODEL
CONSENSUS NOW PRODUCES 1/3 UP TO 3/4 INCH OF PRECIP AS SNOW OVER THE
SOUTHEAST END OF THE FCST AREA...WITH 01.06Z NAM TRENDING A BIT
WETTER TOWARD GEM/ECMWF. AT 15 TO 17 TO 1 SNOW-WATER RATIOS...THIS
IS 5 TO 12 INCHES OF SNOW OVER THE SOUTHEAST QUARTER OF THE FCST
AREA FROM LATE THIS AFTERNOON THRU WED MORNING. WILL UPGRADE WINTER
STORM WATCH TO WARNING. WILL BEGIN WARNING AT 18Z AS NORTH/NORTHEAST
WINDS OVER THE SOUTH END OF THE FCST AREA INCREASE INTO THE 15-25
MPH GUST 30MPH RANGE BY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AS THE DEEPENING LOW
LIFTS TOWARD SOUTHERN IL/WESTERN KY. THIS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE
CONSIDERABLE BLOWING/DRIFTING OF THE NEW SNOW FROM MON/MON NIGHT AND
COULD BLOCK SOME EAST-WEST ROADS IN THE OPEN COUNTRY/RIDGE TOP AREAS
ALREADY EARLY IN THE AFTERNOON. SNOW AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING SYSTEM
EXPECTED TO SPREAD IN DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON HOURS...CONTINUE
THRU TONIGHT...ENDING EARLY WED MORNING. HOWEVER THE WINDS/BLOWING/
DRIFTING WILL NOT DECREASE MUCH UNTIL MID-DAY WED. WILL BORDER THE
WARNING WITH A TIER OR TWO OF COUNTIES WITH 1 TO 4 INCHES OF SNOW
AND BRISK WINDS CAUSING CONSIDERABLE BLOWING/DRIFTING OF THIS AND
THE MON/MON NIGHT SNOWFALL. ALSO ADDED A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR
ALL OF SOUTHEAST MN AND REMAINDER OF NORTHEAST IA...WHERE WINDS TEND
TO BE STRONGER AND BLOWING/DRIFTING SNOW IN THE OPEN COUNTRY
EXPECTED TO BLOCK SOME EAST-WEST ROADS. WIND CHILLS THESE AREAS
TONIGHT/WED MORNING WILL DROP INTO THE -20 TO -25 RANGE AS WELL.
SYSTEM EXITS QUICKLY WED...WITH DIMINISHING WINDS/DECREASING CLOUDS
FOR THE AFTERNOON. QUIET/COLD WEATHER WED NIGHT. WEST WINDS AND
MDT/STRONG LOW LEVEL WARM ADVECTION ALREADY SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA
FOR THU/THU NIGHT AS STRONG TROUGHING MOVES ACROSS CENTRAL CAN. MAY
BE A SMALL -SN CHANCE ACROSS THE NORTH END OF THE FCST AREA THU
NIGHT BUT LEFT THIS DRY FOR NOW AS MOISTURE APPEARS QUITE LIMITED.

FAVORING THE MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS...GENERALLY USED A CONSENSUS
BLEND OF THE GUIDANCE HIGHS/LOWS FOR TONIGHT THRU THU NIGHT.

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY

GOOD MEDIUM RANGE MODEL CONSENSUS FOR THE REGION TO REMAIN UNDER
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT IN THE FRI-MON PERIOD. DIFFERENCES ON THE
DETAILS...BUT MODELS OFFER A REASONABLE CONSENSUS FOR ONE STRONGER
SHORTWAVE TROUGH TO DROP INTO/ACROSS THE REGION FRI FRI INTO SAT
THEN ANOTHER TO DROP INTO THE AREA SUN NIGHT/MON. DAY 4-7 PERIOD
LOOKS TO REMAIN UNSETTLED...BUT THESE SYSTEM WOULD GENERALLY BRING
LIGHT SNOW TO THE AREA. 20 PERCENT -SN CHANCE MUCH OF THE FRI-MON
PERIOD REASONABLE AT THIS POINT UNTIL THERE IS BETTER CONSENSUS ON
THE DETAILS. TEMPS LOOKING TO BE NEAR/ABOVE NORMAL FRI-SUN WITH SOME
WESTERLY FLOW OVER THE REGION. A STRONGER PUSH OF LOW LEVEL COLD
ADVECTION SPREADS ACROSS THE AREA BEHIND THE SUN NIGHT/MON TROUGH.
CONSENSUS MODEL HIGH/LOW DATA LOOKS TO HAVE TEMPS WELL TRENDED IN
THE FRI-MON GRID SET.

.AVIATION...TODAY AND TONIGHT

SNOW WILL BE TAPERING OFF THIS MORNING AT THE TAF SITES. KRST
ALREADY SEEING VISIBILITIES IMPROVE AND KLSE WILL SEE VISIBILITIES
STEADILY IMPROVE THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WITH P6SM BY 11Z.
CEILINGS FOR THE MOST PART WILL REMAIN THE 015K-025K RANGE
THROUGHOUT THE DAY TODAY AND AGAIN TONIGHT.

THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS THIS AFTERNOON AS A STRONGER
SHORTWAVE TROUGH/SURFACE LOW LIFTS TOWARDS THE AREA. THE BULK OF THE
SNOWFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL REMAIN TO THE SOUTH OF THE TAF SITES.
HOWEVER THE AFOREMENTIONED PRESSURE GRADIENT WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL
RESULT IN NORTH WINDS GUSTING TO 20 TO 30 KNOTS AT THE TAF SITES
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. WITH THE FRESH FALLEN SNOW SOME BLOWING
SNOW IS POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY AT KRST WHERE SOME 3-5SM VISIBILITIES
WILL BE POSSIBLE.
