I need that low pressure to move 50-100 miles further north.

Funny, neither of us benefiting from this storm. In fact it may be closer to you then me. Or maybe right smack in the middle? We'll see once it comes up. I'll grab the distance measurement.

Looks like a good soaking coming up. Maybe thunderstorms Wednesday?

Quote:
A coupled jet structure, mid-level height falls, and impressive isentropic lift will lead to deep forcing for ascent across the Ohio Valley beginning late Tuesday night and lasting through Wednesday night. Therefore, expect widespread rains to move from south to north late Tuesday night into early Wednesday. Forecast soundings show just enough elevated instability mainly south of I-64 late Tuesday night that we could see a few rumbles of thunder within the warm conveyor belt of this system as it pushes northeast.

This large slug of precip will push northeast through the day Wednesday as a small dry slot attempts to work into southern and eastern portions of the CWA. Guidance is suggestive that some weak surface-based instability may develop on the edge of this dry slot due to the cooler air pushing in aloft, which may help force a band of low-topped convection, especially along the I-75 corridor.

The storm is making the turn just in time for you. The center if it is crossing over KY. If the low shifts West of you then you get even better storm chances. Also means ChicagoGeorge gets more snow chances.

And we don't usually see this strong a storm this time of year down south.

Future loop.


First storm coming up today. Bringing rains to SouthEast and Mid Atlantic. Notice the white explosion over CT and MA. Snow! Just 1-2" worth. Roads will be no issue!


Second bigger storm right behind it. Making the turn down south and up to Ohio. Watch the snows breakout on the West side of the storm. Chicago looks in according to WRF!

Maybe severe storms in Kentucky then a change to snow after storm leaves?

Crazy and we're within 48hrs now.


Everyone is going to need to keep refreshing their forecasts especially those near the snow zones. Stay on top of Twitter, Facebook and the discussions!


Michigan looks good either way. Lucky them! Flint in the best spot IMO.. Detroit too but they might shift out of the heavy zone if the storm shifts

Our local mets are starting to come to an agreement that the RPM might be the most accurate solution....
