Were darn close here once we get on the backside of the low it could get interesting here.

FRI 06Z 25-FEB 1.1 4.4 1002 98 99 0.81 554 552

FRI 12Z 25-FEB 0.2 -0.3 1000 98 96 0.82 540 541

FRI 18Z 25-FEB -0.2 -7.0 1018 86 53 0.04 544 530

Could get something simiar to what Dilly had where we fight to go over to snow and we eventually do but when it changes it comes down hard for several hours. Adding up to around 3-4 inches. We shall see!

NAM was darn close too! Were at about 35-36 here right now and the EURO for example is going to bust on 2m temperatures.

Last night we had 36 degrees with lots of thunder and lots of flashes....

Just had a chance to look at the 12z runs... was expecting the worst. Nice to see them trending back south. Very nice... couldn't be any better for this area. Time to sit back and watch things play out.

NAM and GFS look great for CLE. Barring any sort of major shifts, we should have 6+ . Will be a fun commute tomorrow!

I don't get this. The NWS said this morning 3-7" for the area tonite and 1-3" for tomorrow. During their mid-morning update, they downgraded tonite's accumulation to 1-3" Personally, I think it's an error on the part of the computer that generates the point forecast.

We are under a watch here and they did the same thing to our county, however the county to our north is in the warning and the urgent weather message spells out the same totals. I'm guessing we go to a warning later today. If I'm understanding everyone correctly and this thing is trending south than we should end up with more snow.

Yeah, in the CLE AFD, or in the WSW text, they were originally saying that the closer to the Lakeshore you were, the better chance of seeing heavier snow. So I would think the totals, would increase to reflect the southward trend.

It's unfortunate that the NWS came out with the point forecasts. The accuracy and the public's perception of accuracy has been reduced versus the standard written county forecast. There are too many glitches and errors with the forecasts now.

There appears to be a heightened cry wolf syndrome in Cleveland with this particular storm. I think many will be surprised how bad it will be come 7 am tomorrow.

There are always surprises with storms. But I really don't see any major shifts happening. Seems like the models have come to a consensus. 6-10 seems like a real possiblity. I'm not sure how much open water there is on the lake but once the winds come around northerly there could be some decent enhancement for a short time.

I'm taking a much needed vacation day so at least I'll avoid the commute.

Colder than I expected today. I thought for sure the ice and snow would be melted before the storm but its not looking that way.

HPC map shows a slight chance of 12+ inch snow right along the lakeshore. I think with the south trend, that area would cover more of metro cleveland.

Good to see you made it over here.

Little nugget from CLE for those on the southern fringe (DILLY) -

FIRST GLANCE AT THE NEW MODEL RUNS INDICATE SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPERATURES INTO THE REGION SOONER THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. THIS MAY LEAD TO HIGHER AMOUNTS STARTING THIS EVENING AND A TAD FURTHER SOUTH. WILL LOOK AT THE OTHER MODELS BEFORE ADJUSTING THE FORECAST MUCH AT THIS TIME. STAY TUNED FOR FURTHER CHANGES.
