A good run from the gfs with a slightly further south low and weaker but somewhat faster.

Heavy snow now Thurs evening thru into Thurs night towards NKY and folks SE of I-71/ Noticing a quicker exit to the system on this run. That's been an odd trend today.

Really it's the upper level piece back across OK. Earlier at 12Z, it held on to that feature and snow lingered all day Fri to add on a few inches. It's done by Fri morning from NW to SE because some models now shred the upper low's energy and we lose that piece so a faster ending.

18Z GEFS... all members but about 5, change CVG over from rain to frz rain Wed night about 1am. The other five are a little slower. Def noticing the upper low dying so we're done by Fri morning at the latest most areas. Thurs night around 1am for some of us too. This is backing the OP run nicely.

EDIT: Only about 2 or 3 have the upper low lingering snow all day Fri so that trend unfortunately is waning.

Les, I never know how to read these things. Can you tell me in layman’s terms what the Middletown area will look like roughly from Weds midnight through Friday morning around 10 am?

Thank so much!!!

Too bad we lost the great tutorial I posted on the old forum. :lol: It was great! Anybody save a copy? Otherwise this will have to do:
Model Data.png

First column is 2M temps in Celsius - You want it to be below zero to be below freezing at the surface where we are.
Second column is 850 MB temps. You want it to be below zero for snow.
Third column is surface pressure in MB
Forth column is surface relative humidity
Fifth column is 700 MB humidity or 700 MB Moisture
Sixth column is 6 hour QPF in inches
Seventh column is 500 MB height in decameters
Eighth column is 500 Mb thickness. You want it below 540 for snow

So what is snow, sleet, and freezing rain?

2M temps have to be near or below zero in all cases (for the most part to keep this simple).
Snow - 850s below zero and 500 thicknesses less then 540
Sleet - 850s below zero but 500 is above 540
Freezing rain - 850s above zero and 500 is above 540

18Z GEFS Mean for Snow 10:1 - Awesome Signal!

GEFS Snow Mean.png

GFS and GEFS / UKIE aren't budging yet. NAM, RGEM, CMC< and Euro are more north and icy / sleety. Which solution is gonna give? 18Z Euro runs at 7pm and we will cover that later.
