Getting back to earlier in the thread-in the years I’ve been posting, I’ve never put anyone on ignore. Reading posts I don’t like is part of the fun.

Ensembles (both GEFS and EPS) have a pretty nice pattern by the end of their runs with at most a short period of AOA normal. Time will tell.

Temperatures from late week going forward are solidly below normal. BOS normal is still low to mid 40s. Here in Chicago, it’s been way below normal-Canada is frigid and it’s close to us. Carping about temperatures 5 days out seems silly. If you get a clipper redeveloping under is we’ll do ok. Besides, I’m a snow magnet and I’m heading home starting tomorrow.

The euro vs others is reminiscent of December 2003 albeit with not nearly the potential impact. Euro won but it was the absolute king then.

Yes. But from a practical standpoint with some almost guaranteed mixing the flash freeze post system might make it very difficult.

So…for my home location-do I need to contact my neighbor to clear the sidewalk? Brookline can be dicks and ticket if you don’t clear. We’re not expecting to be home before Thursday night. I was thinking at my location it would be mainly slop.

This looks like a great start! Most areas 20 miles inland should do well and maybe even closer to the coast. I’ll be away for this one but can’t complain given my storm today.

Really ripping on Evanston. 8-10 is surely within reach.

Yeah we just drove to Evanston. I think 8-10 is a good bet with the long duration of the event. We’ll be having dinner in town Monday night for my birthday with maybe 1-3 inches expected from the next system.

OT but heavy snow and nice flakes as we venture outdoors in Wilmette,IL

Look fellas. I’m old man winter and feeling strong. Gas up the blowers.

We had one in December 2023 in Boston

Clown range 18z NAM shows a trend to have better mid levels. That can really improve output regardless of modeled qpf (which is decent as is).

Widespread snow cover over the northern USA coming. We’re looking at 4-8/6-10 here Saturday and New England similar mid week. I’ll miss the New England event but won’t miss the fun here Saturday. Hopefully more in the pipeline next weekend and beyond.

If we could get the H7 low 50 miles SE of current guidance we’ll over perform imho.
