Since you didn't make location a condition (as your lifetime condition frankly just ain't fair for a lot of us younger folks from the Detroit area), I would say GHD 1 in Chicago...

It's definitely michsnowfreak's time for sure this winter Nickel & dimed to death, but mostly consistent snowcover and cold, lol...

Believe it or not, despite a roller coastet month tempwise, December 2025 is still on track for a top 10 warmest at DFW, possibly even tying or beating 2023 for #6... For perspective, this will be the 3rd consecutive top 10 warmest December for DFW (2024 was #3) and 4th top 10 warmesr December this decade (for those who might have forgot, 2021 sits at a extremely comfortable #1).

December 2025 is also on track for the 6th driest at DFW.

DFW overachieved a few degrees today to hit 84*F (breaking the previous record high of 83*F) CORRECTION: 85*F was the high.

Radar looks awesome for you. Enjoy! Can't say I'm not jealous...

Seeing some TSSN+ showing up in MN, and MSP should be flipping over now (if it hasn't already).

Slight risk for severe weather comimg for E. IL and W. IN...

It deserves its own thread...

And the fact that they're all beefing up the totals in the 11th hour. It's all going to come down to timing of the phase. A few hours delay (or sooner) could mean the difference between a run-of-the-mill snowstorm or a major blizzard for MSP. Ceiling's fairly high though with the dynamics in place

DFW tied the record high of 82*F today.

What's wild is this storm still has the potential to overachieve beyond what's already forecasted for MSP.
