  1. Exactly! Be happy for what we get in November. Honestly, I would be happy with 3 inches to cover the ground.
  2. 38 and rain here..I'm hoping for some convection that pushes cold air to surface. A big gust of wind and then.. boom... snow. That'd be perfect
  3. I don't know what this means.. Care to elaborate for us newbies?
  4. Sorry Izzi.. Thanks for the between AFDs update. Keep making the snow God's happy.
  5. Sleet will be the buzkill for sure. A few hours of sleet instead of snow can cut those totals in half
  6. What the heck kind of update is that?? Give us a little more. I guess it's s good thing though
  7. At what point do we start watching our temps? Clouds breaking so I'm hoping for a period of clear skies tonight so temps drop more than advertised. 45 degrees IMBY right now
  8. Just looking at pure timing and speed. Appears to snow on us for about 10 hours. If we average a half inch/hour = 5 inches. Given ground temps are very warm it will struggle to accumulate in the begining If this was later in the season I'm all about the 8 to 12 amounts. but i just don't see it happening right now. Obviously I hope I'm wrong.
  9. Gonna be a "nowcast" situation. Big bust potential with this in city though. Agree with the current 3-6 north 1-3 south of 55 that local stations reporting
  10. Sure hope so.. Huge differences still. For some areas it could mean 8 inches or nothing.
  11. It's a major model though. Not sure how much faith to put in it given its an outlier, but ts got to be considered..right?
  12. Thank you, sir. This storm made me join the forum . Came from the old Accuweather Forums that appears to have shut down for some reason.
  13. Looking good. Any idea when NWS- LOT updates their forecast discussions?
  14. Such a tricky forecast for Chicago metro and burbs. Would hate to be a local met and have to call this one. Rain/Snow line is close as it is Lake = Warm Track differences between models have some either getting crushed or not much at all.
  15. Little worried about the speed of this thing though. Seems like its in and out of Northern IL in about 8-10 hours.
  16. Agreed..Tad south and a bit weaker. Its long range for the NAM though
  17. Trying hard not to get excited about this one. Looks to be a sharp cutoff around Chicago area. LOT seems to not bite on the southern shift just yet
