Regardless of what snow happens Sunday morning. The meso features on models after that look interesting too

First flakes on the way for Sun night for this area.

If tomorrow's wave were more potent (or it was a few weeks later) we'd have a nice little snow system.

A reminder that NAM stands for Never A Mistake.

Although putting 6” down before the lake effect even kicks in is crazy work.

Second event in weeks with similar look. Let’s hope it’s a long term winter trend versus blowing our load in early November

P&C is up to ~2” here for whatever that’s worth. Expectations low for anything that meaningful given source. But pretty good shot at first snowfall/measurable snowfall, which is exciting itself.

Completely. It’s not snowing in Oklahoma or Texas.

Winter Storm Watches are up along the southern shore of Lake Michigan from Cook County, IL to Berrien County, MI. 6-12” possible. Probably more in Porter and LaPorte Counties. Thundersnow possible. Rates of 2-4” per hour. The IWX forecast discussion is one of the best reads in a long time. Winds over 35+ mph, 6+” of snow and leaves on the trees are going to be a perfect recipe for major tree damage. 

The TV Mets going super conservative due to ground temps are going to have to backtrack big time. The rates and timing will overcome a warm ground in no time. This are going be a memorable event for localized areas.

Who’s the lunatic that walked into LOT’s forecast office and started sending out forecasts?
