The global is the regional is not. Also anyone notice this recent trend to bring in some more Gulf moisture?

Rarely see these two have carbon copy agreement

The NAM is a far northern outlier so far in tonight’s guidance albeit most models have ticked north slightly / changed orientation of the main axis of heaviest precipitation

RGEM a smidge north but not by much

This seems realistic and in line with my thoughts. Ill go 3-6” for majority of LOT CWA with closer to 1-2” in the southern counties.

This is the event. We’ve had consistent SN and SN- all day and road conditions are actually poor in the city right now

RGEM is pretty cool. Too bad these events never pan out for Chicagoland

Best rates of the 2 days

Solid SN and much better than anything yesterday

Lol there is no next

Outside of an overperformer this weekend, what could have been a promising stretch has been lackluster. The extended looks wholly unremarkable

Yup

I do have to say, outside of the short window this AM prior to rush hour, this event underperformed expectations IMBY. We have no remaining accumulation, I certainly underestimated how marginal thermal profiles were. Generally speaking this is the first time I’ve heard such wide scale complaining from regular people in terms of lack of snowfall. ORD’s recording season to date aside— which is already lackluster— there has really only been one event this winter with accumulation lasting longer than 12 hours, and that was the pre Christmas storm.

Of course that’s not to say that this WILL pan out for Chicagoland, it’s just wrong to say they never do. Still a toss up in my mind

That’s wrong

Getting about a 50/50 RN/SN mix downtown at the office

The spread is bi-modal with a cluster of MB members at 2-4” and a cluster of AR members at 6-8” Not so crazy if you believe one over the other which gets you closer to globals

If only it wasn’t the SREF

Long live futility. Long shall she reign

I don’t think so

18z euro to Chicagoland: do not pass go, do not collect $200

We’re just like Lansing

Quality accums in the city today

There is a strong signal for that yes
