    Don't look now...but the 18z model runs move the snow line much closer to the I-70 corridor. Is it a blip....probably....but worth keeping an eye on it. The Chicago posters....who were and still are under winter storm watches/warnings....are on suicide watch after the last model runs.

    It's trying like hell to change to snow now here in knox county. Sign for tomorrow?

    Well it looks like another winter winding down for the OV(outside a stray snow shower here and there into March). Not much happened this winter. It was poor. Next year can't hardly be worse. Only place to go is up. Hopefully by next Christmas, this thread will be 10 times as long as it will get this year.

    Unless it's a March bomb of 12"+ I'm done with the winter that never was.

    Our first snow cover actually survived the rain.  Snowing nicely again.   At least we'll go into the next couple cold days with a snow cover.  No idea what the totals will be from this when all is said and done....but probably 2-4 and very localized.

    And now nothing on the horizon for at least 15 days. Sure that could change but as of now nothing. At least it was something to track for a couple days..

    Our best hope is with a front end thump....    our miracle Hail Mary would be just enough dynamic cooling with significant precip rates to get some respectable slop...and that's a Hail Mary.

    I can't recall what winter, I think it was 13-14, but the day leading up to an overnight event, all the models kept the rain snow line about 20 miles north of the city.    When the snow wall hit it stayed snow and we picked up like 8-10" overnight, even places further south did well.  Granted that was a different set up and a different time....long long ago lol.. .but the incredibly tight rain/snow line being modeled just north of us reminds me of that.     

    Not being a IMBY guy here, but I'd guess from my area (Knox County) up to 30, has maybe a 30% chance of a decent front end thump. Most models on pivotal shows some decent front end snow. But I'm not going to hold my breath, nor care. If it isn't 5" plus I just dont care lol

    the only good thing is it doesn't appear to be a 'big dog' for anyone, even where the axis of heaviest is, it's a moderate event.  After that it's cold for a couple days and then the rain/snow line moves even further north taking out a lot of the sub.   

    Sorry I know it's petty, but it's hard not to be in the misery loves company camp when all you've had is misery....:devilsmiley:

    Gonna disagree. 8" is definitely a big dog here now. I'd venture to say 6" should be considered a big dog here now.
