Our snow-making low pressure is located in south-central Kansas and moving east-northeast. This track would take it near St. Louis - a path that is not conducive for heavy snow around here. In additional, all models suggest it will be weakening as it pushes eastward. Even the NAM computer model, which had been the most bullish on snowfall totals, has continued to fall in line with the other models. This is good, since Adam said last night that it was in agreement then, too.
In fact, the image in this post is of precipitation for this event (in liquid form). Around a tenth of an inch will yield only meager snowfall accumulations of 1-1.5"at the most... and pretty much everybody in our viewing area is at 0.10" or less. The farther north in the viewing area you're located, the less snow you'll receive. In addition, warmer ground temperatures and temperatures near freezing will allow most of the snow to go away in fairly short order, anyway.

Original post: I'm trimming the snowfall even further... looks like Rockford will have trouble even mustering up much more than an inch out of this one. Details later!

Haha, I normally would be, as well! I was in at work by 3:45am, though, so I was about as awake as one can be at that time.
