    Euro takes sub-990mb SLP over ORD.
  2. Chicago Storm
    Bigly jump NW on the Euro. Trash model.
  3. Chicago Storm
    Euro continuing the trend of coming NW.
  4. Chicago Storm
    Been around doing this for a while now, and have never heard of lakes runner.
  5. Chicago Storm
    Yes it is. Tracks from the MS Delta, to Terre Haute, to near GRR.
  6. Chicago Storm
    Well I gotta tell ya, the mid-month and beyond pattern isn’t the new hotness. .
  7. Chicago Storm
    The pattern really isn’t all that great, so it wouldn’t be surprising. .
  8. Chicago Storm
    6z Euro jumped NW. First round rain into E. IA. .
  9. Chicago Storm
    18z OP only goes to 90hrs.

    I haven't committed to anything...yet. Recent trends the past few weeks suggest weaker/strung out/not phased has been the rule, as Hoosier said above. However, we are about to transition into the new pattern though...so maybe that changes...or not? At the same time, a deep/slow trough with no blocking (+AO/NAO) says well NW/stronger is in play too.

    RIP. .
  12. Chicago Storm
    The north guidance is not surprising, with a lack of blocking and continued +AO/NAO. .
  13. Chicago Storm
    The trend recently in this pattern has been for bigger storms out in that range to come in weaker/strung out/not-phased. Case in point see the strung out/un-phased system moving across the region and East Coast the past few days, and then the upcoming strung out system around mid-week. Both were shown as sig winter storms just several days back. .
  14. Chicago Storm
    It hasn’t been shown consistently, and given the pattern we’re still in...it’s probably not even worth much discussion this far out. .
  15. Chicago Storm
    0.5” at ORD and 0.6” here last night. .
  16. Chicago Storm
    Looks like there was a long corridor of totals of 3-6”, from SE. South Dakota on down into N-C. Illinois. That N. Iowa bullseye won though within that main corridor, with 6-9”. Nice over-performer compared to most guidance. .
  17. Chicago Storm
    Looks like the pivot will be between you and Hawkeye. That area from DVN up to E of CID has been getting the goods for a bit now. .
  18. Chicago Storm
    It’s going to weaken as it pushes ESE. .
  19. Chicago Storm
    There was actually a corridor of 4-5” that extended up NW into SW. Minnesota/SE. South Dakota as well. But yea, that N-C. Iowa area is jackpot with 6-10”. RGEM seems to have handled this event the best, as it was favoring a narrow corridor of higher totals, with even a few runs having 6-7” lolli’s. .
  20. Chicago Storm
    Yea, pivot point is currently transitioning from that N-C. Iowa area (near Clarion), to NE. Iowa now. Current trajectory would then bring it over towards DBQ-or nearby.
  21. Chicago Storm
    I'm tempted to say over. Either for you or just north.
  22. Chicago Storm
    3.8" Clarion, IA as of an hour ago. Probably going to make a run at 6" there, being in the pivot point. Edit: New report of 5.5" a bit north of Clarion now. Someone is going to make a run at 6-8" around that area.
  23. Chicago Storm
    RGEM likely has the best handle on that strong disturbance moving through the region. North/wet is the way to go.
  24. Chicago Storm
    Indeed. And it's not gonna happen in this pattern either.
  25. Chicago Storm
    Up until the rain and snow with the system to close out the month, ORD was on pace for the 2nd driest (0.17") and tied for 8th snow-less (0.5") December on record.
