This post is great. It belongs on an SNL Debbie Downer skit.

7.1" total

6" down

5" down now

Getting close to my area

Between 3-4" down. Right up the road from Algonquin

Ripping here 2" down. +SN

Could make a run at 50" for seasonal total if we receive 3" or more

Locking it in for next years El Nino

As my friend from Stillwater MN says storms like these are what define population control in these areas.

Hasnt really snowed since Feb.17th. May have to consider that looking into next seasonal snow predictions

Will give this winter a B+. Reserve A grades for epic winters like 2007/08, 2013/14 and 78/79. Also the continued cold pattern with no snow that looks to possibly linger through March is annoying. The pattern set up was so close to delivering here in February but alas heavy snow events here don't occur frequently for a reason.

This time frame is when the NAM is at it's best. They should push it out to 100hrs for even more accuracy

The pattern was there for an epic winter in the lower lakes but the storm track was just a bit further NW during Feb.. Areas of MN,WI really crashed in. Had a good Jan. stretch so if Chicago even is on the receiving end of a couple of those Feb.systems would have been memorable. Imby still sitting at about 47" on the year. Sad thing is that pattern may not show itself again for awhile.

Model consensus for next week
