The 12z NAM is ideal for almost the entire area.

Hard to get much better then that NAM run
Easily a warning level event for most of the area
The Cobb map is printing out some eye popping numbers along and south of 44

On all 3 12z NAM vort maps, 500, 700, 850mb, strengthen quite a bit as it swings through our sweet spot. One thing I noticed is the 12z NAM didn't drop into MX as far as the 06z GFS. Granted it is only a very slight difference but I have heard on here that we really don't want the 500mb feature to dive too far into MX. I guess it could be argued that the 'center' of the 500mb feature on the 12z NAM just skirts the border of TX/MX and, that is only at Hrs 42-48 which IS in the NAM's reliabilty 'window'.

Got about an inch on elevated surfaces this morning so St. Charles will need at least an inch Wednesday to pull back ahead of Chicago.
The race is on.

NAM and RGEM look great at 12z. We are pretty much fully sampled now so we should have a very good idea on numbers tonight. I really like 4-8” area wide. Maybe 3-6 in far NW corner and SE corner as rain and low ratios may cut into totals.

Hard to tell exactly on Tropical Tidbits, but the ICON looks stronger this run looking at the 500 low

GFS looks very similar to the NAM

Using GYB and the average displacements...that results in max band centered in a line from southern Phelps County... up to Jefferson County..over to about Effingham. The placement does have some wiggle room.. but the standards have worked really well so I am inclined to stay with them. No decisions to be made until I see the rest of the AM data.

Can really see the relative minimum across some of the northern counties on the ggem/rgem.
Have to watch where the primary and secondary bands setup closely as someone in the metro is likely to be caught in between.

Also worth noting both the 12z gfs and 12z ggem look very active/wintry through early February.
Tons of cold building in Canada still.

GEFS keeps looking better and better Mean 10:1 snow is up to 4-6" in the metro 4"+ probabilities are surging again

That follows Chris's GYB path perfectly atm.
