WB GEFS thru Day 7. Highest probability I have seen for 3 inches or more in recent memory for NW suburbs. BUT one run, lets see if the probs. hold over the weekend and if EPS gets on board.
My recollection is that the 80-90% was a one run GEFS forecast for the entire 16 day period. I never saw a probability map under 5 days showing those percentages. I don't think that either EPS or GEFS ever had a high percentage for 3 inches or more for this weekend's event.
Agreed....EURO teleconnection ensembles thru 2/20 stink (with the exception of a weak dip in EPO, but that is not enough.) We wait to see If there is a change in the last week of February into March.
