Mesoscale Discussion 0145
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1126 AM CST Fri Feb 16 2024

   Areas affected...portions of eastern Illinois into central Indiana
   and western Ohio

   Concerning...Heavy snow 

   Valid 161726Z - 162130Z

   SUMMARY...Occasional bouts of heavy snow are possible through early
   afternoon, with up to 1 inch/hr snowfall rates and reduced
   visibility possible.

   DISCUSSION...A 500 mb jet streak continues to overspread the OH
   Valley, which is encouraging 850-700 mb warm-air and moisture
   advection
. The low-level warm-air advection trends are increasing
   the magnitudes of 700 mb frontogenesis, with deep-layer ascent
   strengthening within deepening/moistening dendritic growth zone.
At
   least a few reports of heavy snow have been received within the past
   few hours and this trend is expected to continue through the
   afternoon. Up to 1 inch/hr snowfall rates will remain possible,
   along with brief periods of reduced visibility associated with an
   east-to-west oriented snowband.

Just to note that WAA aspect is also more typical of over running system

LV is very close also. Just know shown there. New Trip here 26.5-27- my house.

Going to try and get AFD for Bethesda once i get my bearings. The shift north would seem to be shaving down this area sadly, once i figure out wtf i am.

What ever happened to bigmirg, could’ve sworn he was on this site and lived @ elevation in WPA? 

Good question. I remember him but don't recall seeing him in the forums this winter. I believe he was in the Blue Knob area of PA.

124 PM EST Fri Feb 16 2024
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
*Quick-hitting accumulating snowfall tonight

The main change from the previous forecast was an uptick in
snowfall based on the latest HREF and WPC guidance. This will
result in warning level snow totals for the southern tier of
CPA and expanded advisory to the I80 corridor.

I wish I could overlay the radar with this lightning map because the radar is showing it is snowing in that area up near St. Louis while the lightning map is showing a lot of lightning.

New business venture. Modeled on house swapping during extreme events - chasers who live in safe zones can stay at homes at ground zero and evacuees can go to the safe home the chasers leave. Send all the money to me and simply switch houses for a while.

If that is lightning maps there should be an option for radar
