Just like the last storm just quietly lurking. Being in Germantown it seems I've been on the fringe 3 times this winter, always a nail biter but certainly a good storm within driving distance!
Just been an observer, I just moved to germantown and feeling just fine about being on the fringe. Originally from chicago so had my fair share over the years. Cool to watch the gradual shift on the models this storm. Always awesome!
Thanks. I’m driving and technologically inept. Bad combo. Driving northeast toward MI, I figure if I get back at 2am it was worth seeing a blizzard.
(I’m staying in central Wisconsin anyone for the time being)
I have some chronic conditions, so I’ve isolated myself in an old trailer that my grandfather used to live up in the middle of Wisconsin to try to get away from the metro area. I feel fine but due to hoarding I can’t get much food! Unreal how people can buy up supplies.
Always try and support you guys in the comments as much as I can. You wouldn’t believe that people can get so worked up about a forecast map.
Isc was the ONLY forecasting agency (from everything I looked at) that went conservative. And that wasn’t an easy choice with the euro and the NAM and even the GFS showing big snows.
This is truly the biggest disappointment. I don't remember the last time there was so much agreement and then it craps out at the last second. Way to go Ukie.
Interesting thing. The Lake Enhancement end of this is so evident on every single model no matter the resolution. I wonder how that has an effect on 1. Snow ratios and 2. Intensity.
We've all seen that mixed flake size stuff-- so its really just a thought.
When that last piece of energy (0z) gets sampled and the models are still going south I’ll be really worried.
This wasn’t what I wanted to see in any event.
Yeah very good write up on LOT. Interesting on the guidance trends, at least to end that a more northerly track is usually favored by the NAM, not the GFS. 0z tonight may jerk us one way or the other.
I’ll say one thing, being on the west side of Lake Michigan from an incoming classic winter storm track is definitely one of the best ways to get a really good snowfall. I just hope to dear God that this doesn’t all come crashing down on Monday.
There are sort of rare occasions when the Canadian sniffs out something that the power duo don’t really.
That said, I’m not sure whether having the icon on our side is good or bad. I feel like many times the opposite happens to what they say .
