Somebody reach out to Ricky and tell him the American Weather board thinks that he should cxl the WSW. The KLOT area will prolly get 4-8 inches which we havent had in a long time and some are ready to cxl the storm. Folks we all want the snow and no its not going to be the big one advertised a few days ago, but maybe the drying on the models stops , maybe they get wetter again who knows lets see how it plays out.

lastest SREF Plume for ORD is down to 6.80 with only 1 member now below 5 with approx 9 members between 6 and 10.

Chicago Storm can you please post the 12z Euro Kuchera run if you have it? thanks

thanks i missed it

would love to know how much precip the 6z run of the Euro put out

GFS para (for whatever thats worth) appears to not minor out the snow as quickly. vs GFS

Isnt it the Confluence in S Canada/N Lakes/Northeast bouncing around north and south each model run thats causing the issues?

SREF Plumes mean at ORD is up to 8.5 with 5 or 6 clunkers and with 8 anywhere from 8.5 to 14.

They should go Winter Storm Watch chicago north and west for 6-10 inches in the morning. Hopefully RC will trim in.

Place to be is S central Iowa!!!!

I see the GEM out to 42 hrs

is the para any good?
