  1. Really ripping on Evanston. 8-10 is surely within reach.
  2. Yeah we just drove to Evanston. I think 8-10 is a good bet with the long duration of the event. We’ll be having dinner in town Monday night for my birthday with maybe 1-3 inches expected from the next system.
  3. OT but heavy snow and nice flakes as we venture outdoors in Wilmette,IL
  4. Look fellas. I’m old man winter and feeling strong. Gas up the blowers.
  5. Clown range 18z NAM shows a trend to have better mid levels. That can really improve output regardless of modeled qpf (which is decent as is).
  6. Widespread snow cover over the northern USA coming. We’re looking at 4-8/6-10 here Saturday and New England similar mid week. I’ll miss the New England event but won’t miss the fun here Saturday. Hopefully more in the pipeline next weekend and beyond.
  7. If we could get the H7 low 50 miles SE of current guidance we’ll over perform imho.
  8. Whichever date is decided I’ll try to make it-probably towards 4pm ish.
  9. Hi fellow snow weenies. We’re camped out in Wilmette-looking good! I’m thinking 4-8.
  10. Enjoy it while you can. We rolled into Chicago dinner time last night with temps in the low 50s. Today windy and low to mid 30s with intermittent flakes (very light). Looks to stay sub freezing most of the next 7 days. 3-6 or more Saturday/Saturday night looking increasingly likely.
  11. November 1993. A 1993-94 winter. Rays fav of all time…
  12. The idea of driving through 1000 miles of snow is a bit alarming for next week.
  13. We’ll be in Chicago tonight for the next 8 days-leaving 12/3. Increasing guidance for a potential 2-4/3-6 Saturday. After that very deep winter until we leave. I’ll be posting on their thread once we get settled tonight.
  14. Too much emphasis and living and dying with the possibility of a SSW event. Tip pretty much put it in perspective when he reminded us to keep your eye on 50,000 feet lower-H5 with his reference to the epo/wpo.
  15. Felt like winter late last night and early this morning as I had to bring my wife’s car in for service before a long trip. One cold November I recall about 25 years ago had a light coating of ice on the Charles River a few days before Thanksgiving. I’m pretty confident of our best start in a long time. We may have some driving issues the first week of December along the heart of the LES country. But I’m bringing my boots, ice spikes which may be needed, and heaviest coats, gloves, etc. It’s coming!
  16. 1992-93 was snowy but had some huge torches. The February and March packs were epic however. 1993-94 came close except for a 3 day torch that melted everything but reloaded until winters end.
  17. Well we’ll be in Chicago for thanksgiving planning to head home beginning 12/3. That area looks decent for some early action just past thanksgiving.
  18. EPS is certainly colder by the end of November. Pretty decent agreement on the 12z ensembles.
  19. Personally, I don’t get antsy before mid December. Now at the tail end of my 79th year, sustained snow and cold has almost never happened before that.
