for those hoping for a big one with this pattern, probably gonna be a long stretch to hope for that. however, i think this is more of a CAD pattern where we get snow -> ZR/sleet -> rain events which can rack up pretty fast and bring us to at least not well below normal. i think all of us here would take a nice 1-3"/2-4"/3-6" event out of desperation lmao
the pattern does look kinda similar to feb 2021 imo, w/ less amplitude ofc
