My location on the NAM map you posted. Talk about the teeny-tinesy screw hole imaginable...

I'm going to try to forget about this thing until the afternoon AFDs. 

That's actually a local maximum. The blues over the lake are the lower end. Not that it makes the overall map any better lol

If anyone has specific LOT centric questions on forecast stuff from today, ask away and I'll try to reply a bit later.

Apologies for the lack of a more in depth meteorological dissertation in the AFD lol - just less and less time available for us on days like this.

What is your personal take on ratios in the farther outlying suburbs around the city?

0z nam will be a chicago crusher, u can tell

Never any doubt, our CAM moment will come

We all know how this game works everything is proceeding as well as one can expect other than the shit ratios overall.

My favorite thing in the world is these random twitter thread posted here with minimal explanation as to how they would modify sensible weather in the midwest. 

Chat GPT posting habits (I know my posts are also low value but bruh)

I imagine tonight's LOT forecast discussion -and hopefully many of them in the next few days if we can stay on course- will be save worthy. 

Another banger run of the Euro. Absolute JDAM missile for Chicago. 

That uh... 00z GEFS anyone?

At hour 48 on the GFS. Heights are more amped ahead of the low, which is also deeper. SE ridge is more pronounced and trough is digging deeper. This is coming west this run

Reading this was soothing to my soul

I don’t think we’ve had a double digit storm in the city proper since 2015

Wasn't there a big lake effect event a few years back? Remember Alek posting some pretty swag pictures. That was literally only the lakefront though if I remember right. IMBY the last snow worth a damn was in 2021, like 10 inches of concrete.

Sorry, what do you mean “too”

Yeah for real... I'll take what I can get at the end of the day but the line kind of broke on this last one. Certainly can't be held against us.

RGEM comes in east. the mystery deepens. Even so, it's a good 6"+ across N IL at 10:1 so hardly disappointing 

Sadly, flake size is cheeks again right now despite steady rates for the last two hours. Hopefully I can rack up another hour or two of better rates at some point.

I thought it was way NW with today's system at long range before correcting back SE in later runs

It was actually SE the previous run comparatively so it's just picking up on the trend properly

EPS v GEFS shaping up to be an all-time model rumble considering just a few days out now

I know it doesn't mean jack diddly but wasn't the current storm also Euro NW and GFS SE by a bit and then the GFS trended into agreement? Or am I IIRCing wrong

Transitioned from rain to dookie snow to now decent snow again. Would be nice to keep it this way for a while. 

On some real shit the Euro, ICON and Ukie all show a very similar outcome. CMC in between a bit, GFS also just a bit of a NW trend from at least a good storm in NIL if not a mega bomb.

Roll with it the king is back stfu don't listen to the voices get out of my head

ICON hopped way back north, so I'm predicting the GFS will do the same.

I'll make a first call of 18" for ORD. Could easily be higher tho

Ambitious, I like it

Looks like p-type issues have been resolved, at least for now. Steady snow falling, almost everything has turned white in earnest. Grass is gone again

I've actually never laughed this hard at this forum before these last few posts were gold

... And now it's SN+ again.

Now it's pouring like a mother

Bright band.

CC shows it’s a mix or rain.

Mega parachutes but not super thick rates is the best I can put it. Starting to whiten up the ground just a tad though.
