re: Louisiana Ice Storm Thread *Winter Storm Warning*

I think the cold air is further south than what GFS and EURO are picking up but maybe thats changing now.

It definitely is by a hair.

Yea, that's a big change for the Baton Rouge area with that large shift southward.

Remember, don't focus on the exact line the models show, reality can be different by miles, sometimes hundreds, when it comes to wintry precip. In fact, most of the time it is. shite, the precip type on the radar, which uses model data is usually wrong. Local storm reports are important so I would definitely recommend downloading the mPing app to your phone to report precip types to the NWS.

AccuWeather is still on the snow train from BR to Hammond.

I hope that pans out over ice bc that would definitely knock out power for a long while.

Well Accuweather is bullshite.

Nobody in the Baton Rouge area will see snowflakes out of this. The cold air is TOO SHALLOW for snow to fall. It's barely going to be deep enough for sleet but chances are the entire Baton Rouge area sees 99% rain/freezing rain only.

Not during snow. If you get enough ice, trees and limbs will come down and take out power lines. Won't know if/when/where until it starts falling.

Advantage SWLA. Laura and Delta took out all the tree limbs.

I got gas and generators. We good.

Does Joe Bastardi still run that ship?

If the power goes out, will my milk go bad?
