  1. Call me crazy I guess, but I actually think it's a step in the right direction over the last few GFS runs. Especially given what we just saw with the most recent storm, If you assume that the GFS is too aggressive and fast with the Arctic front, then everything pulls back west again
  2. I think the models are too fast/aggressive with the Arctic front, both in timing/speed, and strength which is creating havoc with the opperational models in spinning up a storm If everything slows down a bit (which I think it will) then the Christmas week storm will come back again again in some fashion
  3. New drinking game.. Every time someone mentions "CAD" this year...sheesh.
  4. I'm not saying I do, or it will be. I'm saying I'd rather have the model show that this far and have it back off a bit vs showing confluence setting up around I-80 as ND the we n hope it pushes further
  5. I'd much rather have the suppression that the GFS is selling this far out, than the big GLC at this point. Plenty of time for the ol'e NW turn and will our way into a Great lakes cutter GFS verbatim looks like true CAD though.
  6. Hey.. Good start to the season. Overachieved based on my own expectations. Started with 1.5-2 this morning, but quite a bit of melting through the day.
  7. It has been a great summer here so far. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk
  8. I think there will be a lot of sleet with a tough transition to all snow. I am cautious of some snow totals not handling the sleet well
  9. Yep.. When pitchers and catchers report to spring training, and we realize it's the August of winter still.
  10. Going it old school. Surprised u didn't do an observation thread
  11. Said every storm. But I think they have been remarkably consistent in this case. We have had shifts of 30-50 miles from 6 days out
  12. Seems like a good setup, wondering why we haven't discussed. Evident on that rgem out above tho
  13. I haven't seen much discussion on lake enhancement/ lake effect for Chicago area. Lake iced over or what?
  14. This reminds of a scenario earlier in season where the models struggled with the orientation of snow compared to the SLP.. in a similar set up. There were last minute changes to a more SW to NE trajectory
  15. Under call. 10 still very much doable imo
  16. Watching from the sidelines on this one pains me .. In Florida next week
  17. i give it a C .. Here is why 1. been some good/legit cold stretches in January- Enough to enjoy what will be three weeks of solid skating/hockey with the kids 2. the little snow that we have had actually stayed around for a long period of time which allowed for two weeks of sledding, give or take a few days I couldn't really do either of those last year till February But in terms of pure snow totals?, Yeah that is an F
  18. Nice persistent band overhead dupage county and into cook
  19. It amazes me how much can melt in low 20's and a bit of sunshine
