This is so much fun. Let’s do this again this winter. Borderline blizz conditions in rural areas in the paign.

Just measured 7.1" in my yard. The heavier snow ahead of the low has moved in. The flakes are still small, but they are dense.

You new here?

Euro used to instill some confidence. It’s the only model getting anything appreciable here. I’m guessing it’s going to cave at some point.

Stackin’ flakes fast during the day in November. Chef’s kiss. Just shy of 4” already

12z Euro/CMC vs GFS in regards to cold and storminess. Could be a rough ride for the GFS.

Some flakes but mostly rain

Been chatting with a friend who lives in Glencoe and watching the bands on radar trying to give him a sense of how much they’re going to end up with. Maybe an hour or two ago he told me there was three or 4 inches and I told him they would probably end up around eight or 10 inches.

A reminder to regular contest entrants (in main general interest forum) that Dec and winter snowfall forecasts can be posted now. Also an invite to all -- Dec is a good month to begin entering the contest because of the snowfall contest portion and also we look at seasonal scoring leaders too, but the main contest runs January to December so the invite is really for 2026 participation.

EPS says we're guaranteed to see measurable snow by 12/14... we shall see

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

Thundersnow in Western Illinois.

interesting where does the data input come from for the Euro model ? The output is much different then GFS and Canadian

is it time for me to up my snowfall contest prediction by 10 inches?

DT's first call.

DT's First Call map looks like mine.

And then we had 12/5-6/03 which was even better. And the 12/5 snow was mostly unexpected.

All the globals show a decent to good hit for the region, with some of them taking quite a liking to Schuylkill County. The traditional Euro shows the least, and even that puts down 3 inches here. The NAM on the other hand...

That was my issue through the morning. Very poor flake quality. Like pixie dust. Finally getting quality snow now. Thinking I may be on lower end of what was forecasted here though. Kind of feel like precip may move out sooner than forecasted.
