  1. I'm still riding the NAM.. last min bump north and colder
  2. Quarter to maybe slightly above here in Darien
  3. Looks like a pea size hail formed into a snowball to me.
  4. Both NAM/CMC a bit further north and wetter than EURO/GFS. 0.4 of precip modeled and would get interesting with high ratios and some Lake Effect
  5. Models kicking out a few tenths of an inch (0.01 to 0.1) of precip over N IL tonight. I assume would be very high ratios.
  6. Too soon .. we're not ready to talk about it yet.
  7. Thanks for the reply.. And I hope you know my comment was not meant to be at any certain audience. If anything it's for us arm chair quarterbacks that think we know more than we do when we see model runs that favor our backyard and ride it to the bank. It's hard for us to keep emotions out of it. It's what separates the hobbiest from the professionals. LOT did pretty good job with extremely tough forecast. Appreciate all you guys do and on to the next one!
  8. Nobody kill me..(I know we all have been begging for a GLC). But I miss the guarantee of a clipper. One of those hybrid west to east overperformers with a gulf/Pac connection
  9. I feel like we all need a Lessons learned debrief after this one. What went well, what did not....uggghhh this hobby sux Edit.. or we listen to Chicagostorm when he is "cautiously optimistic"@Chicago Storm
  10. I'm okay with it. We got our 5 in ..maybe one to two more.
  11. Enough to glaze over snowpack to limit drifting
  12. Any read on wind gusts? Seems pretty legit from the east
  13. Looking like 2/3rds of our snow will be this morning
  14. Skilling just mentioned that balloons went up at 6pm so the 00Z runs are first to read. So not sure if that is what led to the colder aloft?
  15. nope.. nope. not doing that. that failed me last time . those blizzard warnings out west make a lot of sense now
  16. Man.. that EPS is a Milwaukee crusher
  17. Hmm.. is that a Blizzard warning that i spy
  18. Can I take the buy out option at 8" and run ?
  19. Got to love Accuweather. https://www.accuweather.com/en/winter-weather/perilous-blizzard-to-thrash-midwest-followed-by-dangerous-flash-freeze/1611131 The storm is on track to deliver 8-12 inches of snow to downtown Chicago, with some neighborhoods possibly facing a scenario in which 12-18 inches may pile up. Blowing and drifting snow on top of that will result in snowdrifts several feet high that can cause vehicles to be stuck on highways.
