People still watch local TV mets?

I'd argue this is only the second SW Low event(provided that happens) or moisture laden over running event of the season. Still, a more strung out solution seems like it has been the way to go for quite sometime. However, that does not preclude a 4"-8" event as we just saw. Or a heavy rain to freezing rain to back end 3" thump. Tis the season. No meteorology here just a amateur take.

"IT IS A SYSTEM WORTH KEEPING AN EYE ON. "- Gino Izzi.

thought the same. Can't remember the last wrapped bomb.

yep. 12ZZZZZZZZZZZZ's dashed some hope of even a slop event.

beavis approved.

never a good sign when this thread is at the top.

a Chicago winter is fine.

all in. Even seeing some signs of a secondary clipper past the Friday WAA event.

love it. On days with no precip feels so much better out and the added heat energy going to fuel even the clippers on the cold side.

at least the GFS has something to look at.

2" thumper which turns to a drizzle fest and a flash freeze on the back end. Welcome to late winter.

right on cue: THIS SEEMS TO BE THE TREND IN GUIDANCE BETWEEN THIS SYSTEMS. WHILE WE MAY SEE SNOW OVERNIGHT, CURRENT FORECAST SUGGESTS A TRANSITION TO RAIN. OVERALL IMPACTS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS WAVE LOOK TO BE LOW. You'll get your non-event clipper with a spit of snow and rain and like it.

so Cohen thinks it's going to get milder as we get towards March. I believe his last call you posted was that it would get colder in January. got to give his props, he was right on that January call.

not sure why, but I'm optimistic on the late week clipper. Late season clippers can really get surprisingly juiced if your on the right side. LOT: THIS CLIPPER IS ONE TO WATCH AS IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BRING A SWATH OF ACCUMULATING SNOW TO THE UPPER MIDWEST. WHETHER OR NOT THAT'S INTO OUR FORECAST REMAINS TO BE SEEN QC: THERE CONTINUES TO BE SIGNS OF A STRONGER CLIPPER WITH PACIFIC MOISTURE MOVING INTO THE MIDWEST THURSDAY NIGHT. ALL GUIDANCE IS IN SUPPORT OF THIS FEATURE AND ARE BEGINNING TO CONVERGE ON A TRACK ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST AND GREAT LAKES Milwaukee: THE SECOND, AND MUCH STRONGER CLIPPER SYSTEM DIGS ACROSS THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT, AND WILL BRING THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW.

frozen dog turd days of winter............

yeah the "winter blahs" will do that. Thankful, for the clipper parade, a Lake Snow event, and mini GHD event to follow for 5 days. But the dog days of winter our now here. No events in sight and days upon days of 20's/30's with little to watch. At least the ground is white.

eh. they'll probably run into Loyola in the second round. and to keep this on topic...what a nice midwestern event for areas that have suffered. We know wisky/minny will get theres i April. Now is when we need to score.

what are the odds? Temps in the teens, strong N-NE wind flow, and a storm passing southeast of us and can barely buy a flurry from the lake. That's just bad fortune.

took the 30-35 range. Gonna take it on the shin with Masters Weekend snowfall.

ongoing flakeage. Comes and goes. I imagine downstate Illinois and Indiana getting pounded and nary a word.

started snowing out here at a good clip...wind is howling.

where's the first legit 20" report going to come from?

yeah. payback gonna be a bitch. And I'm old enough to know this shiat evens out.

in fairness the event was named that for the storm not where it would hit. And at the time numerous 20" totals were progged by models. But lets face it even those totals based on a baroclinic zone where waves run along it does not cut the mustard. And anyone that thinks GHD ll held a candle to l is loopy. Nothing I've ever seen compared to l. Nonstop, lightning,thunder and blinding snow for hours....Chicago> boooston. Is uncanny, the amount of Groundhog day storms that have occurred recently.
