  1. GFS at this point is a fair bit deeper than the other models. Even the EURO only gets to ~980mb.
  2. Yes. Still, rooting for y'all to get a big dog, plus, there's shit else to talk about down here besides freezing my ass off.
  3. That's because the models have trended in the direction of not deepening the storm as much. Which that makes sense with the trough not being as sharp and not digging as much.
  4. For SW and SC Michigan, yes. It looks less impressive for the northern part of the state, and the areas closer to Detroit still look as "meh" as they have been amount-wise
  5. But that won't stop them from bashing "dA wEdDeRmAn!!!" for getting it wrong or overhyping the storm...
  6. Those weenie model runs that dumped 1-2 feet in Chicago are still making their rounds across social media. Going to be a lot of disappointed average joes, haha!!!
  7. Compared to the hell most of us will be dealing with, that sounds like paradise to me...
  8. But they did get beefed up somewhat in SW Michigan into Central/Northern MI.
  9. BTW, DTW finally issued a Winter Storm Watch for all of its CWA. They're hitting the blizzard wording fairly strong too. Didn't get too specific with amounts, other than calling for the potential of at least 5-6".
  10. Will be interesting to see if the other global models (NAM may never get a clue) start to catch on to a 06z GFS solution by the 12z runs. Would need blizzard warnings across all of Lower MI for that, easily.
  11. 06z GFS was pretty brutal (in a good way) across SW and Central MI.
  12. Was there already a decent snowpack in place ahead of 1978?
  13. Knock on wood of course, but all things considered, you seem to be a good spot right now.
  14. It was initially headed in the direction of a NAM solution, but ended up being just a slightly version of the 06z run. EDIT: Slightly stronger...
  15. FWIW, 12z RGEM is weaker (thus doesn't wrap up nearly as well), but the track is the same from the 00z run and it's not NAM bad with the cold sector precip. So still a solid run of the mill event for IL / WI / W. MI.
  16. IMO, a Winter Storm Watch was still the right decision as it is for the *POTENTIAL* of a warning criteria storm (which the potential, fleeting it may be, is still there). If things do completely fall apart, the watch can always be downgraded to an advisory or cancelled.
  17. Depending on how the 12z model runs trend for the late week system, this thread might get quite the workout soon.
  18. Same windshield wiper pattern happened with GHD 3 as well. Seems to be the SOP with potentially major winter storms these days.
