Wintry January 29th-30th ARCC Slam Dunk Winter Weather Threat

So is this event a cold chasing moisture situation ? If so, those hardly ever work out !
No it’s getting it’s energy from a clipper.
I think I posted this the other night. But it will kinda be like the 1997 north Alabama event. Many got about 2 inches. And this was along a artic cold front too with a clipper.

Here's the full accumation map.
 
Moisture makes it past the apps, still watching with the corner of my eye, perhaps we can sneak in some precip, anyways after that the warm biased icon shows some pretty cold temps
 
The arctic is crashing down into the northern plains right after the storm. It might have less moderation with much of the US coated in some snow at that point.
 
Here are the totals. You can probably bump them up a little bit due to the higher snow ratio.
So like 2 inches could be 3 inches in a 15:1 ratio.

This maps uses a 10:1 ratio. 9637586D-43F8-40FD-B814-50247C33BB4C.png
 
CMC really tries to develop a separate wave of LP, still brings decent overrunning for us east of the apps
 
Is that a wave developing on the back end?
Yes, I believe so. It kinda gives me January 28, 2014 vibes. If one does end up developing I wouldn't be surprised to see it come in more robust further NW with the precip. That's the one department we haven't been lacking in this winter.

And gfs doesn't count for ice on the map right? Because you can see ice further south you would think totals would be up little more further south
