    I would take last Winter in a heartbeat after this rollercoaster we've been on this year. I mean last winter had a roller coaster to some extent, but solid Winter by far dominated. This entire Winter has been unpredictable until almost short range time. And what a wild one. From a November where it was cold and snowed seemingly every day, to pure hell from December through mid January with only a few dustings of snow, to deep Winter for the 2nd half of January including a record shattering cold blast which occurred during the coldest part of Winter, now a huge thaw. What is next?

    Wash, rinse, repeat perhaps??

    Curious to see how a storm is going to cut into a 1038mb banana high to the low's northeast with 1045mb high coming down on the backside.

    Was thinking the same thing with that blocking to the North.  A degree of suppression seems in order with this.  Can't discount the Euro completely, just doesn't seem to match the pattern setting up.

    With the much advertised warm-up already becoming muted and more cold air pressing, this should get good for much of the area.  Of course the trough needs to maintain the positive tilt, and if it does we could have multiple waves to interact with the cold to the north.  Lets see what happens!

    From CLE's AFD. If this is the case sign me up for Spring!  

    
A look at the global northern hemispheric circulation is beginning to show signs that the Arctic air from the North Pole will begin to
flow back toward Russia once again in a similar fashion as what occurred through December. This will aid in ejecting the cold air
mass expected Tuesday and Wednesday east of the area fairly quickly. This upper level pattern change will support the possibility of
stronger ridges building into North America as we head into the weekend. The North Atlantic and Arctic oscillations are indicating a
change to a strong positive phase over the next couple weeks and perhaps a warming trend.

    Seems a little premature to me.  I don't doubt a little warm up coming next week, but that has Zero support accept those two wishy-washy indicators.

    I'm looking forward to this system. Barring a complete miss I will be happy.  There is some frozen snow outside but those bare spots thanks to yesterday have to go. It's easy to be jealous of the deeper snow in eastern IA and western IL, but we cant jackpot every Winter. As long as a fresh looking winter wonderland returns for the record cold blast.

    My thoughts exactly.  Not gonna be greedy.  Just want to be hospitable when his majesty from the North comes for a visit.

    Up in Toledo we averaged about 8".  I really feel for you guys down south.  I can't tell you how many times I was sitting in the same position as you, only to watch the whole thing fall apart and hit Michigan.  It's a crappy feeling.

    That map is unreal.  12" in the extreme w. Part of Franklin county ....0 in extreme southeast county:lmao:

    Part of me almost wants to see something that crazy 

    I remember hearing someone say "If you can smell the rain, you'll get the heavy snow"  Seems to be the case in Franklin County.
