in fact, Larry Cosgrove was pretty awful last winter and spring.  He consistently called for a frigid March and a super torch April and May in the midwest and NE and that turned out horribly

When Larry Cosgrove starts getting mentioned in our threads we are nearing the breaking point for some folks.

Like the 00z run, the 06z run of the Euro also whiffs northern IL tonight.  However, now that the Euro has left the accumulation party, the HRRR has jumped on board.  The 12z run drops some light accumulations for most of northern IL, including Chicago.  The NAMs continue to remain dry over the area throughout the night.  

It comes down to the timing of the development of the precipitation.  The models that are dry for northern IL are just delaying the eventual development of the wave of precip and still drops precip on lower MI.  Gonna have to watch the ol' radar later tonight to see what actually happens.  Looks like if it's gonna snow in Chicago it would be in 6h window between about 2am and 8am, so if we can keep precip from developing until near the end of that window they could remain snowless.

Light snow falling at both DeKalb and Rochelle, with radar returns increasing across northern IL.  Looks like a good chance O'Hare gets some wet snow in the next few hours, question is will it be enough to measure.  Unfortunately it's looking likely a few tenths may indeed fall tonight.

Record should be all systems go

I'm all for the record at this point. But the trends in the longer term are a little disheartening. Was really hoping for a turn over the holidays.

December snow becoming like June rains in the desert. People coming out of their homes to witness it

Pouring snow here in Shelby twp. Drive into work was very icy. Nice banding setting up along oakland/macomb.20211218_065058.thumb.jpg.2f5b3ed986bad8f3a3f0976344cc5302.jpg

I live about a mile north of 696 and it’s been moderate sleet this whole time. Constant pingers hitting the window as I type. Sad, but not surprised this happened. Despite modeled p-type maps showing all snow, skew-T plots told a different story. Was right on the border of it being sleet or snow, and any north trend or stronger WAA would mean sleet. Guess it means a top 5 least snowy December is still in play for DTW.
