I remember Tom Lamiaine on CBS 3 just botching the forecast horrifically. He kept saying the NW suburbs would be off the hook with only a few inches even as NBC 10, FOX 29 and ABC 6 were going all in.
Cross polar flow this early in the year is always nice to see. I just hope we don't empty the clip and somehow reset to a blistering SE ridge for the meat of winter. At the very least this should kick up a good amount of lake effect and start freezing up Canada.
