I think you may have misunderstood my post, which I take blame for. I meant "temporary shutout" as in like a fifteen-minute period with no snow in it, NOT that it wouldn't snow at all anymore. I wasn't really trying to be negative at all; I was merely commenting on the fact that at that time, I was outside of the radar-indicated snow zone but it was still snowing, and that it might cease snowing any minute. Again, retrospectively, I see that my original comment was worded like sh*t, so my bad for the misunderstanding.

I still have a hard time believing that Aurora will see more than 4-5 inches... but I'll take it.

Kind of on the fringe of shutout here... but so far it's still snowing. Every minute of snow is a good minute Edit: temporary shutout

Our storm is still there on the 00z GFS.

Yep. Tonight, the baby sat instead of stepping. Oh well, I think we can all agree that tomorrow is the day things start getting serious. At least the GFS didn't trend worse again.

It's absolutely awesome to consider that after this weekend's system exits there's another noteworthy event literally less than 100 hours out.

Got a question: (I really didn't track weather much until like 2014 maybe, so I have fairly little recollection of GHD 1 other than it being awesome once the snow started) at roughly what point did it become apparent with GHD 1 that 20"+ amounts were possible? Was it feasible from the start? Or did become a trend later on? Also, did the storm shift to its actualized area of effect shortly before the day it hit or was N IL always the jackpot zone? 'Pologies for the off-topic comment.

FWIW, it's farther north on the GFS, by a little.

Jesus. Really curious to see if this is the ICON being the ICON or if a bump north will be tonight's theme.

The second way to kick it off is with the ICON's decent shift north.

yeeeeeeuh let's go Chicago gang! I can already feel this storm getting ready to drop three feet on us in sheer awe of our numbers Really though, it's the perk of living near/in a big city. Nice to see more Chicagolanders

I'd be satisfied with 4-5 given we have many opportunities to come. I'd gladly take more of course

On the off chance that it's just the latter storm, then it isn't a big dog anymore. It's a gargantuan canine.

Does anyone have a Euro snowfall map by any chance?

Sorry, what's MSN?
