Northern edge is way underdone..

Nothing too serious though as these microcast/rpm models always fluctuate like crazy..

maybe, but i think a pretty impressive NW/SE gradient looks like a safe bet, especially away from the lake. Euro sounds like it is continuing it's trend back to earth and will be around 1-1.2" for ORD.

Can't shake my concern about a warmer layer aloft hanging on. Latest thinking for LAF is an event total of 6-9" snow/sleet and less than .25" zr. I think there could be a fairly significant amount of sleet. Hopefully we get more.

I'm with you with the WAA. I just wonder to what extent dynamics can offset the relatively small layer of warmth. Regardless, I think it is primarily sn/pl, with any zr being very minimal. Could be one of those scenarios where the heavier pockets of returns will dictate the p-type. All in all for LAF, I'd probably go with a "wide" 6-12" for my snow range, with the amount of sleet being the true determiner of what eventually happens. Not for the faint of heart. Could be one of the more dynamic and thrilling storms we've ever seen...regardless of how much snow, sleet, or whatever falls. I'm nervous but excited. :)
