The point is it can happen, it's happened all around us. Just would like to witness one. Until then all these 6 inch events are just zzzz.

Ahh so you're the big dog repellent. Kidding. Im sorry you had to move. Not a better place to be in the summer though. Me and Josh go back and forth about this every winter. He likes the nickel diming shit and snowcover. Im okay with 3 snowless winters in a row a decade if it means a big dog every other yr for a good stretch. Boston has had atleast 10 20+ storms since 2000. Detroits had 100+ 1-3 events. I know its not in our climo to get big dogs but when you see everyone else getting one, it's annoying lol. Also I see our friends in ohio/Indiana did well but not nearly close to some of the kuchera maps we were seeing that I thought would verify with the arctic air in place. Perhaps too much dry air or ratios weren't as good as we thought due to it being too cold.

Toronto big dog. Boston big dog. Us 16 hours to get maybe 4 inches. We've discussed this. Im willing to suffer 4 shutout winters in a row if it means I get a big dog every other yr other times. It does look like a winter wonderland back home so it beats tundra and no snow cover I suppose. Im 40 years old so hopefully I can witness a big dog in my backyard and a lions sb b4 I croak.

2 feet for boston incoming. That's gotta be like 10 of those for them since 2000, 20+. Congrats to the chicago lake crew and indiana/ohio crew. Looks like detroit will be lucky to get 5.

Denver Seattle sb?

The low on the coast is forming, stealing some of the northern energy from the main low that still hasn't made it out of northern bama. This storm is another example why detroit struggles to get big dogs. You get a low trying to take a favorable track but coastal steals energy. Its pretty cool to see the whole state of PA covered in heavy green returns. Also on the anniversary of the 78 storm.

I'd imagine by looking at radar, it's snowing an inch per hour. I'd say the models did pretty good with this, atleast in se mi.

I can't recall last time we had a storm system the size of this one approaching with temps near zero

This made me laugh more than it should've.

Not gonna lie rap/hrr more than 12 hours out is just as useless as looking at the nam at all.

Just some harmless entertainment between model runs. I think most places are locked and loaded on a great storm. Gonna be fun tracking this one from afar for the detroit area.

Largekarentornadoohioan is just one of those people that has to make a scene at the supermarket instead of just taking a hit from the weed pen and going about the day quietly. Looks like the Canadians have taken the day off models wise.

That's aaron. Whatever he says, he hopes the opposite happens. Calm your tatas. Based on your reaction, you belong in a diff region forum. You may see yourself out.

If you actually read the conversation, nobody's making it a competition. Nobody here is rooting for mixing on the East Coast. We're just saying we wont feel bad if they do. Leaving Aaron out of this as he didn't mean what he said. Bad karma aaron.

Of course my favorite rgem is running behind.

I don't think anyone in here is going to feel sorry for anyone on the east coast. Its just a reminder to watch the models with caution and never assume you're in a good spot. Ive lost count how many times a place like Columbus in this setup ends up with sleet when snow was modeled for days. Luckily this time around, the arctic air is allowing our Ohio friends to relax with this one.

I think maybe take a break from the models until tomorrow morning and just nowcast with the radar. Watching every model is gonna stress you out.

If i had a private plane, I'd be flying into Bloomington. First, to have a beer with cignetti.

Who knows. Cutoff is close plus the dry air. Nowcasting for sure.

What a beaut to watch on radar and the models. Could've been a big dog but I guess we'll be grateful for whatever we get. Impressive temps this morning up there. Its already a balmy 73 down here this morning.

This is one of those where josh could get 8 inches, while my backyard gets a dusting. You should do well.

Plus still no headlines from dtx. We always do well when they underestimate an event, which is often.

10+ years ago I would say this will come north last minute, but in recent years, these Ohio Valley Miller b's tend to keep the good snows SE of detroit.

You, Joe, and other chicago hooligans scured them off.
