In this case for NE IL/metro I mean more-so due to the R/S line and lake influence combination.

It's going to be really interesting to see how they both pan out.

You and I are pretty much on top of each other in Dupage no? I know guessing is a fool's errand but how do you feel in your heart of hearts?

we're being Izzied. It's pure weather porn. Read at your own risk.

Yeah, ingesting that was an experience. I don't know if I've ever been this close to perfect ambiguity going into a storm. Quite literally on the border of the future warning area in Aurora, with models keeping me optimistic. On the other hand, I don't really mind a miss to the NW; it would sting, but as long as I walk away from this storm with some snowpack for later in the week, I'd be happy to be honest. 

Pretty hyped to see what LOT's afternoon AFD will be like. 

Not to get ahead of myself, but if a slightly farther south solution does verify that would be a pretty big W for the RGEM/CMC

NAM 18z has a better look to it.  Tad south this far

I hate getting hooked on looking at CAMS hours before the storm because it never seems to quite end up how I want but trends this morning haven't been awful for the western suburbs. If we could just get this thing a county more to the south I'd be happy

Every model that my broke ass can view has a hot diggity dog somewhere nearby in less than five days. Seems that tonight's iteration of runs drew out a decent consensus between all of them. Before I get too invested, are there any ways this can possibly not end up being a legit high-end event for someone? Are there any unspoken caveats that might turn this into yet another "homersimpsonshrub.gif" moment?

Big snowstorm for the Chicago area on gfs

Looks like the CMC will follow suit. Wild that this is already just over a hundred hours out. 

Euro seems to be picking up on what @Stebo and @andyhb iirc mentioned

@RCNYILWX If you don't mind, what are your thoughts? Will we see a continued NW trend or some modulation back south?

Euro a tick north/4mb deeper and looks pretty decent. Just please not a full rainer, 8.4" was obviously a joke but adding to the white would be nice.

It's a message board, not a workplace. Just ignore people that try to troll sometimes. Its not that hard. Not sure why we gotta threaten people on here.

Sometimes is the operational word there. Also, we're under no obligation to tolerate someone who's deliberately trying to piss everyone off just because they can. Even at work it's one thing if someone is just annoying sometimes but if all they do is try to get a rise out of you, that's a different story. Threatening is one thing but idk if that ever really happened; might be remembering wrong tho

No grass visible. Pretty swag to set the mood for hopefully not a bed shitter on Monday or Tuesday or whenever 

Euro looking good. Final call 8.4"

How yall enjoying that no hardypalmguy life?

More than the current midrange outlook believe it or not

It's so nice to not have to be depending on 60+ hour NAM runs for hope

Just now, SchaumburgStormer said:

Stop coming at me with that logic and shit. I want to live and die by model runs 130+ hours out. 

Me too, that denial stage is just hitting exceptionally hard 

Look gang it's either gonna trend to shit or bounce back in a couple days and be stronger so tap into that self-restraint we all definitely have and hold tight

I will use my iron Kantian will to force this storm to track perfectly for mby

If there's a rug pull in a couple of days, it really will be hard to live down.

Another weenie dog GFS run reeled in

I'm sick and F****n tired of getting missed. There I said it.

Oh I feel you for sure. I'm just saying that out of the two sad endings, I'd much rather take the one that at least keeps a bit of hope alive you know?

Like I said in the other thread, idc about getting missed just don't let something crucial break down four days out and the whole storm vanishes overnight again or some shit. 

The fact of the matter is Palm hoe was the equivalent of going on a BMW forum and then posting exclusively about how bimmers suck and everyone should buy a Miat. Yes, it's a valid stance, but fuck off with it to Reddit or something and stop invading the two square inches of internet space that we use to foam out over clouds. Warm winter weather is still weather but let's be fr we're all 80% here and primarily active in the winter because we want big snows. Bitch boy used that to excrete as much rage-bait-lite as possible because, I imagine, of some sort of psychological damage he sustained IRL. It's still not clear to me why he suddenly vanished -I imagine somebody mentioned it to the admins and they finally did something- but it's the best thing that has happened to the enjoyability of this forum in as long as I've been here for sure.
