Ban.

Yup.

Boston Winter easy. On board for second 20” storm in a month. NYC to Philly DCA this storm will have a big say. All that said when the dust settles I’d still bet ORD tops them.

“ the grass always seems greener on the other side.”

As of today both NYC and Chicago sit at 21”.

East coast pattern.

The east coast outside of Boston has not had a real snow event since 1/25-27. Boston snows daily this year. Btw…they treat a 1-2” snow like it’s a real event. In these parts it’s referred to as a turd duster. Big difference in perspective between here and there.

Looks like a really great weather day.

The northeast and mid Atlantic are nearing some of the lengthiest snow packs in decades with near records in some cases. And most of it stemmed from an event 2-3 weeks ago. Was not aware climatologicaly how much easier it is for our area to retain snow cover versus them. Here, a 2-3 week cover from a 10” event in mid winter is standard. Heck, this pack were melting off is basically from a duster train and lake effect event. I figured it’d go poof. Not so. But another day of 50’s will end it. Bring on a salt washer. Of course we’ll probably follow that with an 8” tree snapper.

You got a lot to learn. This is just fake spring.

Long way to go to be out of the woods for snow. But the weeks on end of persistent cold get further away with each passing day. Next 7 days look great.

Stick a fork in it.

There it is: IN THE EVENT PRECIP DOES EXPAND WELL NORTH INTO THE AREA, ACCUMULATING SNOW WILL BE IN PLAY LATE SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY. AS A NORTHERLY TREND IN THIS SYSTEM WOULD INTRODUCE MORE POPS TO THE AREA, WHICH COULD BE IN THE FORM OF WINTRY WEATHER.

The great VD storm of 2026 has yet to show its face.

Those Shreveport to Atlanta lows are gold in Naperville, Ill

For sure. This week.

Outside of Boston, my guess is you did better than DC to NY in the past week.

Winter doldrums week incoming. Days on end with clouds and 20’s. Of course, that’ll feel like spring given the past two weeks.

Hammertime. update: not hammertime

Ever since I was mocked on Dupage County Lake snow I’ve been doing okay.

Same.
