RCNYILWX Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Overall call of 2.7" still looks good for now...especially since the next pick wasn't until 3.1" DAB with clipper #2, 4 and 5. Clipper #3 could be an issue, but given how narrow the band of snow will be it can still easily be a non-event. I haven't looked closely at things but based on the latest AFD, maybe #4 (the Mon-Tues system?) won't be a DAB after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it necessarily guarantees a repeat performance tomorrow but something to keep in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baum Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I'm thinking 1-2 falls before changeover at ORD on Thursday. Puts me right in the mix(no pun intended). Or is this where someone posts next system is not part of the clipper train,and therefore does not count? EDIT: wow right on cue. Note it is titled through 2/7/13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Yep. Never mentioned clipper(s), just said opportunities. But you can make a case that this next one is clipper derived I believe. Just for fun, and it's a shot in the dark guess anyway...but make your guess for total snowfall measured at ORD in the February 1-7 timeframe. Deadline is midnight tonight. True this isn't exactly exciting stuff, but there are opportunities forthcoming. Let's see how "good" we all think we are...or pretend to be. Keep the pot shots at a minimum please. Mark me down for a round 5.0" for ORD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
