Climo is tough to fight, you probably average half of places like Chicago and here.

The models are trending back north for tonight. Who tf knows any more. .

You know he's working on something, lol.

GEFS/GEPS in a snap shot mindset do not look great D14-16, but they're in the process it seems of evolving to something different. A ton likely depends on where the MJO goes

It's good to see those in the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes getting in on some snowstorm action. Always good to see the buildup for snow and winter weather to our west. Hopefully if we build that pack, that cold air can bleed east and try to dampen down the SER that will be rearing its ugly head by mid-December.

Yeah pretty typical here. Usually getting screwed. I80 north always seems to be the jackpot. Not a fan of where I live. Lol. Hoping at least waa snows will be a good hit here.

Pacific jet is trending more equatorward towards mid-month, leading to a better wave break and more poleward ridging near AK… this makes sense given the MJO

You hate to see good starts get cleaned out only to start over again, I think it was 20-21 back where we were off to a good December with 16.1" here then the grinch appeared and the rest of that winter was mediocre with 29.5".

Peoria is pretty far south, so yeah being skeptical down there is a good move. This is probably more of an I-80 north threat.

I'm waiting for Bluewave to embed a tweet about how fast of a flight it was from Tokyo to San Francisco, and then a 1994-2015 minus 2016-2025 250mb zonal wind graphic

That's what I'm hoping but not holding my breath

No stop you're supposed to be depressing quit it before this autistic obsession actually becomes enjoyable again

Models have trended towards swinging the winds around to the WNW a bit quicker over the last day or so…suspect the lake effect will struggle to push south of Lake County and far northern Geauga until late Thursday, but then there’s a pretty prolonged and decent WNW flow setup Thursday evening through most of Friday. Should be a solid setup for eastern Cuyahoga into Geauga and through the rest of the inland snowbelt. I could see the lakeshore struggling given the very strong winds over the water and fairly quick wind shift to WNW, but there may be a smaller area where banding sits on Thursday along the lakeshore (possibly in Lake or Ashtabula Counties) that does quite well.

The amount of cold air being in place before this lifts out will be hard to shunt away. I am not surprised by the amount of WAA snows the models are showing.

Hard to hate the start so far too. Even low elevation woods are ok… we’ll see in a couple days though, haha.

Now that would make me eat my words. Huge ridge out west with some increasing heights in the NAO domain.

Hopium is back!

Same crap different season. It's fun to watch. Get ya popcorn!

Now that drought guy is doubting it, I'm optimistic about this storm happening.

AKA Rain Man.

Another year another Winter! Let’s cash in this go!

Oh my, the SER is taking a vacation. Ensembles playing catch up as well.

People pay $5/mo to have the euro regurgitated?

GEM is a Major ICE Storm next Week taken verbatim.

Thank you BW. 55 years ago I started working in the area, than married into the area. The row house across the street was boarded up, as was another around the corner, on Kane Street. Gentrification took hold and now both those buildings, which went for taxes, can command 4 to 7 million dollar price tags. The fall is (anthony forgive me) my favorite season. The end of life is also the promise of life. When winter finally arrives for me …. I hope to be ready. Stay well, as always …..
