  1. Would say Detroit more so than Chicago last several winters. Although when it does snow has favored southside of Chicago and LES bail out for downtown
  2. Lol another 2 days of runs for this to move further SE and weaker. Original 1-3" for NW burbs looking good
  3. The only constant is the GFS volatility. With this being so close to the holidays not necessarily wanting a storm that shuts the place down through the weekend anyways. As mentioned before usual qpf trimming as event nears vs some of those runs last night likely.
  4. My guess is Euro will slide SE in future runs to meet GFS and CMC. It might tick back far enough NW to keep you and southside in the game. LES may bail out Alex and NW burbs get screwed again.
  5. More concerned the big dog trending west is on the table eliminating clipper snows and bringing a close miss SE into play. LES from NE flow keeping Alex happy
  6. Going with clipper system (1-3") that blows up SE of us or near the coast to give NE big snows. Only caveat is if it blows up close enough to give lake effect enhancement to usual suspects.
  7. If bored I could always start the unrealistic winter expectations thread. Point out our winters here really are pretty lame. Then have Michsnowfreak come to the rescue with his snow statistics that deny my argument and clearly demonstrate winters are indeed snowier(especially in his backyard)
  8. Hopefully get some snow on the front end of this cold push next week. CAD looks in play unless clipper action comes through.
  9. Flip over to wet snow mixed with rain. Big clumps starring to accumulate on driveway.
  10. Latest HRRR run backing off on totals for northern burbs. Still think a slushy 1-2" on grass with a sloppy mix possible.
  11. NWS just issued WWA for 2-4"for northern row of counties.
  12. A wetter pattern for the Western Great Lakes region seems attainable.
  13. 1" here but southside wins again. Lakefront just a mixy mess
  14. Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald type storm. As far as synoptic snow systems go this seems fairly typical for November. Areas NW of LOT like MSP and even MSN get theirs first. Realistically start looking for snow possibilities 1st week of December. Assuming of course the La Nina forecasts of above normal precip for us are realized.
  15. Most "normal" winters should include about 3-4 weeks of opportunities where the pattern lines up favorably for the lower Great Lakes. Usually get a heads up about a favorable pattern with nice analysis from RCNYILWX
  16. And I was going to run the mower out of gas and bring out the snowblower. Guess there's plenty of time.
