  1. I think IWX goes with Winter Storm Watch(es?) overnight to cover the system and lake effect/wind. GRR may well do the same. Areas that don’t hit warning criteria from the system should get there thanks to the lake and the winds will be enough of an impact to justify it anyway. Both the HRRR and NAM have gusts over 30 knots on Sunday.
  2. IWX only went with one to cover the potential ice impact. “If it was just snow, headlines would not likely be issued, but with the threat of freezing precip, it was decided to err on the side of caution and issue a Winter Weather Advisory from 4Z to 18Z Sat.”
  3. Ripping here now. Might squeeze 2” out of this tonight.
  4. Might be slightly dated but I can get behind this. Edit: actually if I learned how to read I can see it was issued at 2135z today so not dated.
  5. Hoping to get the goods from the system but truly am taking solace in the lake effect behind it. An inch tonight is a good bet. Then another 6" one way or the other Saturday night into Sunday.
  6. I love seeing massive amounts of snow too, but there's nothing quite like a blizzard. Blinding heavy snow with roaring winds... ooo weee. It just hits different. It's a special and rare occurrence for most of us.
  7. 12k and 3k 18z NAM are still phenom for the northern third of Indiana, NW Ohio and epic for most of Michigan.
  8. I know. I should know better than to doomcast. I got my hopes for a big dog from last storm and am still a little bitter.
  9. Putting all my eggs in the lake-effect basket Sunday.
  10. That was a pretty exciting 6 hours guys. Back to reality.
  11. Euro is about 5 to 6 millibars weaker with the surface low compared to the GFS. Takes about the same path though. The good news: that surface low on the 00z Euro is stronger than on the 12z Euro. Overall, it’s a step in the right direction.
  12. Fair point. I'll drive 25 miles north.
  13. Also... and I know this is taking the NAM verbatim which is dumb... there would be some legit blizzard conditions as the low pulls away.
  14. I need that NAM run about 25 miles southwest. Splits my county in half between 9" of snow to the north and 3" to the south.
  15. 18z Ukie a touch stronger/northwest with the low Saturday night.
  16. Can we combine the Ukie with the HRRR front end thump?
  17. IWX calling for 4” so I’ll prepare for 2”.
  18. The HRRR is intriguing. 6+” in Southwest Michigan by Saturday morning. We get sleet just south of the border here in Indiana. A nice swath of 3+” in Chicago area.
  19. Got to 3” after this morning’s lake effect. On to the next one.
  20. 2.7” as the storm pulls away. Hoping to eek out another half inch or so from ye ole lake effect overnight.
  21. 2.2" on top of the cars in the parking lot. 4" in the grass. Take your pick. Edit: I'll get an accurate measurement when I get home tonight.
  22. I've said some nasty things about the Euro recently and I'm sorry for what I said. Hoping we can put our differences aside.
