  1. Guidance doing a poor job on the amount of ridging over the Strait of Gibraltar, causing massive displacement downstream. The Pac jet will blow this up, and kick this system east fairly quickly in uneventful fashion. Be happy with the flurries you get in this crap pattern. .
  2. Actually an organized system on the RGEM/GEM/Ukie. .
  3. RGEM/GEM/Ukie in lock step for Thur-Sat...ride ‘em.
  4. you would have a point if AS actually made coherent posts that were actually true. .
  5. if this were a real futility pattern, i’d probably be onboard and deep into the stats as well. tis not the year though. .
  6. it has been quite a thing watching angrysummons quickly rise from being meh for so long, now to the the sub-forums most hated poster. .
  7. tth. what is the fascination with snow at all then, given it always melts in varying time anyhow. some areas in the southern plains are on track for one of their snowiest winters...so it means a lot in the end actually. .
  8. one day...one day, maybe you’ll finally be right with something. .
  9. Legit looks like the tundra down there. .
  10. Probably the most significant and longest lasting that I can remember. .
  11. Freezing fog and low level snow showers here overnight and this morning. -DAB. .
  12. This event was C IL’s version of N IL’s day after Christmas 2009 surprise snowstorm. Both a product of a potent wave within the 500mb trough. .
  13. Looks like higher totals will translate into N IN as well, as banding is setting up as the UL disturbance pushes ENE. .
  14. Total precip bullseye up a max around 1.50” now. Even with a full half reduction, that’s over 7”. .
  15. Corridor between Champaign and Lincoln will end up with several inches. .
  16. this statement coming from you ironic. .
  17. And speaking of the system for tonight, most guidance bumped back north...with agreement on 1-2” for a good portion of the area. .
  18. Have been meaning to start a thread like this for the past few winters, but always end up forgetting... Just a little something for these systems, such as the one today/tomorrow, that don’t quite make it to being thread worthy... .
  19. Event 1... ORD: 2.6" snow/sleet. Here: 3.4" snow/sleet and ~0.20" ice. Event 2... ORD: 1.3" snow/sleet. Here: 1.3" snow/sleet and glaze of ice.
  20. Precip filling in now as the upper low passes to the south. Flipped to snow here about an hour ago, with a few tenths down. Should snow for several hours, with 1-4” area wide. .
  21. That was an error on their part from the start, in not having the WWA further NW. LOT had the same mistake in north having it far though N...and as did MKE. The consensus of guidance consistently had WWA level precip that far north. So for them to say the axis set up further north, is comical.
