  1. Have had -SN at ORD for a little over 2 hours now, but only a T of snow thus far. More recently better -SN has developed, with some actual accumulation now.
  2. 18z Euro didn't really shift much...But was drier/weaker. Edit: I lied, not drier...Actually a bit wetter. However, much less snow on the snow maps.
  3. Snow depth as of 6PM will be 15" at ORD. (14.5" actual amount)
  4. Has a lot to do with what is going on aloft... How far north and when exactly the wave goes negative tilt has the say in if this ends up NW or SE. in addition to the amount of ridging ahead. .
  5. 18z GFS bumped NW, and para GFS tick NW.
  6. how dare you talk down upon and bash an NWS forecast. they are highly qualified and trained meteorologists, who know what they are doing at all times.
  7. 12z Euro with a bump back SE from 6z run. Ends up very similar to 0z run, which had the initial bump NW.
  8. Given the NW shift, ORD is now much more in the game for significant lake effect/enhancement. If ORD were to miss out on the LE, it means noting to the official Chicago snowfall total then.
  9. It did several runs ago, but definitely kudos to the Para GFS of this holds. .
  10. 12z Para GFS continued the bump NW trend as well. .
  11. 12z OP GFS bumped NW, but still we’ll SE of other guidance. .
  12. It’s a bigger deal for them down there. .
  13. To say that’s a long shot is an understatement. 11.3” on the month so far, and say this storm/lake event put down another 12”. That would make only ~23.2” on the month, which is still ~20” away from that record. .
