Snowing moderate at times here, steady since early this morning. 2" on grassy surfaces now, and now an inch on the streets. Temp has gone down from 32.4F to now 29.8F in last couple of hours.
A little glimmer of hope is that the high resolution models are showing the low in the Midwest further SE than the GFS and Euro, more in line with what the Ukie and Canadian are showing.
Yeah, down here I'll hold off on running my snow blower out of gas for another 24 hours. The other day I took in the stick poles at the front lawn near the street. Taking those in I was afraid I jinxed myself.
I like your optimism but speculating on 11 day potential just won't cut it after this latest day 2 failure. Long range and even medium range model confidence has been found wanting this winter season.
Earlier this winter others were being criticized for posting such long range op runs.
