3/15-3/16 Winter Storm

Lake response looks impressive. I think we can manage at least a Wind Advisory/WWA Advisory combo in N IN/SW MI. Maybe a WSW if things go well.

Either trends or struggling models but just feels like rooting for the backside of this thing is precarious. The smarter folks eluded to the difficulty in models forecasting this system. Lots of moving pieces as Chicago Storm said. Anyhow, back to my run to run trolling.

A common theme in our Climo in spring is for heavy snow events to our north with pretty nuisance 1-3” backside defo hits. As I alluded to how we’ll end up with normal totals a week ago.  That’s essentially what’s on the table and has been. Euro runs were always a bit of an outlier but it looks like it’s falling in line. Let’s hope we’re still not doing this in May.

Question is how much further north this thing can trend, because we may not be done yet…

I don't think I've ever seen you root for snow in N IL.
