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
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
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
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?
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
