  1. I thought this is an every year thing when it's late season? Like a modeled SSW that leads to the polar vortex shrinking and going poof because of the season.
  2. In true GFS fashion, it's ensembles improved lol I still think this is a turd storm though.
  3. Knowing our luck GFS will be dead wrong on the next week storm so we'll get nada
  4. Seems like the GFS was the best at medium lead time for this Noreaster? Seems like it's caught on more often than EURO on those storms lately.
  5. Feel like that one gives off 0 or 6" of heavy wet snow vibes.
  6. While the NE gets lucky again (they do deserve it after some shit years in the snow department) next week still looks somewhat interesting for us. Gotta wait until the Northeast storm bombs out before we get a clue though.
  7. The high was supposed to be mid 40s here, but approaching 60F instead?
  8. Very OT, but in Costa Rica right now and there was much talk about the recent Arctic front going through here in some capacity. Temperatures below 70F for highs so locals were "freezing". Interesting additional context to the arctic cold far reaching just our part of the continent.
  9. Idk.. to me too much hopium. But I'm obviously rooting for the higher end outcome.
  10. Snow only lasted 30 minutes here lol the WSW was upgraded for that? Maybe should've been a Snow Squall Warning instead?
  11. 3km NAM is useless here and barely paints any QPF anywhere, even in NW Indiana which is now under a WSW. HRRR isn't worth looking at either at extended range. I wish trends were good though
  12. What trends? Not seeing anything positive for the IL side tbh
  13. Ironically I was in Whistler the end of December and they actually had snow the week I was there and enough of it with high winds to cause problems. Still better off than having no snow.
  14. Good luck to Nadocast in coding all of that in
  15. Welp the lake effect is no longer in the room with us. Barely any modeled anymore.
  16. We're all owed at least one run with a peak of 30in somewhere despite not being possible.
  17. Pretty sure there's ice there now since the ice shelf has expanded with the cold. Time 2 get skiing or snowshoeing? Jeb walk on the ice shelf incoming
  18. Sorry for opening this debate can of worms lmao. Just curious. I miss the days of huge cutters (either favorable tracks for the Great lakes or cutting west and giving us some warmth). Feels like there's a severe lack of storms from colorado to the Mississippi River lately.
  19. That's all fair, but the pattern itself technically provides the highest ceiling for big dogs on the East Coast? Whether they occur or not is the question or whether they peak offshore. Just not seeing anything that would pull this pattern into one favoring more inland tracks or cutters like panhandle lows or colorado lows.
  20. Excuse any of my ignorance but how is this pattern not an "east coast pattern"? Seems like we're stuck in a NW flow in the middle of the country now and only the East Coast can get lucky when the Sub tropical jet wants to cooperate? So clippers for us and occasional favorable flow for LE (soon to end with lakes freezing though?) Not a good look out West with so much ridging and lack of meaningful mountain snows. Could equate to drought concerns there into Summer without runoff?
