I swear upon my timberlands, if this system dares to be a rainer, or even a mix, I will move to Cuba.

The track of this storm, and where it puts down snow, will affect the snowfall of the next one possibly right?

This is like actually crazy

I don't know why anyone would be surprised. This was foretold in the prophecy.

Seriously. On behalf of everyone who got shafted, screw this storm

I am very excited to see whether alek will be right or not. The wager of the ages

Now the ICON has gone back nw a bit and stronger with wave 2.

The ICON has been farther West for a while now though, it's just stronger by far this run.

Watch, tomorrow's trend will be last minute explosive strengthening while keeping the southern track. 

^ The caveat being that it's now like a third of the strength

Hey guys guess what's at least a tiny bit South? Here's a hint: it starts with "E" and ends with "O"

(Just kidding lol)

We're all aware that the CMC shifted south right? It's also weak sauce but thought I'd say something

...start of a trend.....? 

The start of the reckoning, no less.

*ape like hooting noises ensue*

Guys I know my voice carries zero weight whatsoever, but I feel the need to say that I just have a feeling this will turn out better for Eastern LOT than anticipated. Just a gut feeling. Definitely not my dying hopes talking, no not at all.

If only the 18z GFS was real the next 2 weeks

 

45-50 inches, alot of it higher ratio fluff.. ORD, MKE, MSN

 

 

Real or not, at least the weather looks interesting. 

Rolling out the 18z suite. The reckoning is at hand my boys. 

The euro is basically just drowning Chicagoland in freezing rain at this point. It makes my mind smolder to think that a couple degrees temperature change is all that separates us from a foot of snow.

Small differences affecting very populated areas

That's what I'm hoping for... How likely is it that temps are just a few degrees colder and everything falls here as snow?

I hate to break it to you all, but WTC is giving me 6-10 inches of snow as of now so... You're wrong.

Please don't bake me... Genuine question. How much of an impact can the placement of the high pressure to the northwest have on this system?

Ok, I searched January for 2" precip, 1.0" snow storm combos in Chicago history.  I know, low bar on the snow amount lol.  But even setting a measly threshold of 1" snow, it's rare... like really rare.  

We'll throw this one on the list even though it started on New Years Eve...

12/31/1890 to 1/2/1891:  2.03" precip, 3.0" snow

and...

1/26/1967 to 1/27/1967:  2.40" precip, 23.0" snow

So I'm not sure what to think.  Either something pretty unusual is on the verge of happening or the 2" precip amount or 1" snow amount will get derailed.  Guess we'll find out in a few days.

When we're shoveling through the feet of snow on Sunday morning, remember this moment. 

I am calling on my nationalist German pride. The ICON will prevail. Death to the doubters.

Icon looks a little better fwiw

You getting hyped to watch woodstock get buried while we watch pingers try to accumulate over 1" of standing water? I know I am!

Beats trying to guess the next positive pattern change over and over again
