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.

In Plainfield atm. This band that's about to pass overhead is going to rip 

It's coming down pretty well here now. Serviceable flake size and all that.

How to forecast

 

Is this a Gary Larson OG or an imitation?

@ChiTownSnow just keep the hatch to SchaumburgStormer's weenie bunker closed and a smile on your face. It's only warm cause we're crammed in here like sardines. 

Starting to get pretty breezy out, would make it interesting if it starts puking flakes in a few hours

Latest HHR continues the trend the NAM was showing 

I'd sell my soul if we can get some heavier banding to hang over the near suburbs tomorrow.

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

Wait..is that the Titan?   No thanks

I don't think so

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"
