Wild Winter Storm Part 3



Forecast position of intense and powerful upper low for Saturday above.

Then only saving grace preventing another monster blizzard this season is the lack of arctic air associated with this system. However, the higher terrain of colorado and far western Kansas into Nebraska won't be so lucky. This evening's latest model runs are indicating another massive and paralyzing blizzard to hit those areas. They haven't fully recovered from the last system which produced 2-3 feet of snow in the general Denver metro area. It was the 7th worst storm since 1946.

This next system could quite easily be just as severe based on the continued model forecasts of a slower and stronger system....almost identical to the 20-21st storm system. With alot of snow still on the ground from the last system, people could be having to dig snow tunnels just to get out of the house. Wow.

For us in the southern plains, it looks to be a pretty good rain producer with some flooding possible in areas. In fact, N TX and Central OK and points eastward may get some serious rainfall totals out of this one with a low-end marginal severe threat.

Stay tuned!
