Not saying it is wrong but there is an awful lot of consideration by Chicago for the SREF. I'm sure if it was half right this winter we'd all have 50" or more. In other words I'd tread lightly when using it.

It does have some support though...or at least some models leaning closer toward it. Doesn't mean it's right but a western placement is viable.

GEFS mean gets .75 up just north of the city limits, hi-res NMM/ARW similar or a bit wetter, the NAM is coming around, the 4KM is even better, and the RAP looks amped.  The Euro is really the only major holdout.

The Euro's performance this winter has been incredibly sub-par in these parts. I can't wait to see the verification stats at the end of the season.

Agreed. Long way to go. But the now casting of this thing is going to be addictive given the differing model wars and the gradient. Only fitting a winter like this will have a storm that feeds some starving geese and leaves others very close by only smelling the white stuff.

I think that if the Euro was about to pull the coup with the shutout for our area we'd start to see the RAP start backing down by now

 

we're definitely going to see headlines for Cook with the afternoon package
