  1. I'm hesitant for Chicago. I don't like relying on fgen band and/or lake effect. Both may or may not happen and are much less reliable to forecast..Tricky forecast for sure
  2. Sounds like it's all going to depend on where the initial band sets up for the first wave, then where the LE sets up. Unfortunately, both are more of a nowcast thing and hard to pinpoint
  3. if i recall correctly, GHD1 did this exact same thing about this far out. hopefully its a sign :}
  4. what impact (if any) does this little system ahead of it have on the main system?
  5. this far out its not a good idea to take any 1 model run as gospel. I prefer the ensembles as more of a guide this far out
  6. I would say so. Decent may be an understatement
  7. Nah.. a few of us came over from the old Accuweather forums when they shut down. Good to have some other chicago peeps on
  8. But it's long range NAM .. so its basically garbage
  9. Looking at partial sampling by the models early Thursday?
  10. What do you think RegionRat? you jumping on this bandwagon for Chicago yet?
  11. Was just going to post the same. Flake size increased as well. Heaviest so far. Hoping for some help from the lake now that we got steady light east winds
  12. Agreed..ORD is always a hole in the beginning
  13. Any chance at lake enhancement for NE Illinois around the lake? Looks to be a typical setup for that.
  14. Anyone else see the NAM and notice the sligh tick south and cooler temps for the Dec 2nd storm? Southern Wisconsin looks to be in the game
  15. Not sure where to post this question but am looking ahead at the models, do the models factor in the current snowpack when predicting temps and precip types?
  16. Wow.. Glad you and the little one are safe. We thought about making trip to in-laws last night but didn't want to risk it
  17. Power has been out here since around 2:30 AM. Have a 3 month old so thankfully it's not below zero outside. House has been staying fairly warm
  18. about 1.5 down here. Honestly thought there would be more as it has been coming down like crazy since about 7.00pm. Heavy wet slop though. Hoping it keeps it up all night long but looking like its on the move and picking up the pace a bit
