46 to 33 in 35 Minutes with Gust to 44 mph……………Thursday-Friday Info Based On Latest Data
February 18th, 2013 at 11:54 pm by Chad Evans under Chad's WLFI Weather Blog
Temperatures are tanking with passage of Arctic front. It has gone from 45 to 32 in 1 hour at Fowler with a wind gust to 49 mph. Here at WLFI, we have dropped from 46 to 33 in 35 minutes with a wind gust to 44 mph.
With a quick freeze & some flurries & few snow showers, be aware of a few slick spots on roads. If there is any snowfall accumulation tonight-early Tuesday morning, it would be very minor.
Everything looks good regarding Thursday-Friday forecast. No changes needed. 1-3″ of snow & sleet will do for the area with 1/8″ glaze ice before changing to areas of rain/drizzle. Temperatures will rise from 27 at onset of precipitation later Thursday to 38 by Friday morning. We will likely see a fall to near 34 by Friday afternoon with a few flurries.
The heavy 8-16″ snowfall amounts will run from Nebraska through Iowa to southern Wisconsin to perhaps Michigan. 4-8″ of snowfall is possible around Chicago.

Sounds like were going to miss the bulk of another big one, and what wintry precip we get will be melting on Friday…sigh
Naw we gonna git it my man just wait and see.
If we miss another big storm, there’s always March.
NO! I will not let myself get excited. It’s going to be like every other “storm” for the past few years. We will get a dusting that doesn’t even cover the grass and it will melt within a day. Another dud of a winter…
