Right . Even though they beat Chicago almost every year. This time, Chicago gets the headstart. All things aside, very winter like storm for november. We are getting snow from a low tracking to our west.

True me too but too much fun.

We have to make sure everyone knows that Detroit is a notorious climatological snow desert

We benefited from it for sure. Say you see 12z and a storm is tracking in location X…. then we have to wait until 00z and its only 30 miles north… it seems like it’s making small movements. What we didn’t see was 18z that was 50 miles south… then 80 miles north 6 hours later…now we see an intermediary run and think the model is all over the place.

Dope to me has always been Heroin Opium but I guess.

No. I’m more on the side of the forecast I got today for Tuesday is different than the one I got 15 years ago in terms of the information at our fingertips. 15 years ago…. What model output did we have? Particularly from the ECMWF suite… 500 mb heights? MSLP? We’d have to wait for one of the mets with a WSI membership to tell us what it showed. today…. We can all see it and infer our own takeaways.

Know this is not going on here. But found a live stream of Chicago O’Hare airport. The planes landing in nearly white out conditions. Can see all the snow plows on FlightRadar24. ATC is hopping.

Argue with AI

Some of us were 45 years old 15 years ago. Didn't have a clue then, don't have a clue now.

No surprise. 84 hr NAM lol Jesus

He’s in Atlanta but siding with Nam

Dope?

Idk what we’re even arguing anymore. I had been saying the GFS was likely overdoing the amplification the past couple days. But the gfs and ec were polar outliers and guess what? They’ve been slowly meeting in the middle. But I don’t recall the GFS being the NW extreme a common occurrence.

What's Ryan say?

I thought dope was supposed to make you mellow?

Ain't a snowstorm until Steve complains . Snowing nicely out.

The other item is 15 years ago some of the posters in here were like 15 yrs old without a real clue

Looks like the advertised spread the wealth event is coming into fruition. Seems like N IN is doing pretty well compared to expectations, widespread 6-12" elsewhere.

Folks cocked up , high , Hammertime tonight

it could also completely whiff to the south and show flurries

So you are saying that the forecasts you got today for Tuesday are more accurate than they were 15 years ago. People keep mentioning selective Cherry pickin memory . I suppose its better than no memory like some are exhibiting in this thread.

Not surprising. Evaporational cooling. Model's are not good with it.

Got home from work about 30 minutes ago, which was a blast BTW, and measured 8.0". Still snowing really well currently, but time is running out. Awesome event for November.

We just don’t know! There’s also a psychological element here likely arising from the social media era. Exactly! Our memories cherry pick the Euro nailing the key events of the last 20 years (2013, Sandy, etc.). Of course it was King Euro back then, no question. I do wonder if it benefited from only being run 2 times a day.
