First wave really saves the day from a cutter.. I don't remember the models showing that lil pos until the last few days.. I'm pretty close to locking in 6-12" for CMH.

one man's lil POS is another man's lil xmas miracle

but you're right, without that we'd probably be looking at a rerun from yesterday.

FIM, lol..

No love for Detroit or St Louis :(

F*** the FIM :lol:. I dont think my inch of snow will survive til Christmas (because, ya know, after being cloudy forever, now that we have a little snow on the ground the sun will come out tomorrow)...but I could handle a euro/euro ens/gfs ens for the 26/27th and Ill be fine.

Yeah F the FIM... Its was funny even seeing it posted last storm.

I hear you on the sun....hate it during winter. At least you got a nice taste of winter before Christmas.. So happy its going to look the part outside here although not as perfect as just west. Even if yours melts, you have the models on your side for an extended joyful Christmas. We really need this to hold for, SSC and the other snow starved Canuck's.

ILN AFD :snowing:

.

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...

A

N ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL EVOLVE DURING THE LONG TERM FORECAST. WEAK LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING SPREAD PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY ON MONDAY. THE ONSET TIMING OF SHOWER ACTIVITY IS STILL IN QUESTION AND WILL HELP TO DETERMINE IF WE SEE A WINTRY MIX MONDAY MORNING...OR AN ALL RAIN EVENT DURING THE DAY MONDAY. COLDER AIR ON THE NORTH AND EASTERN SIDE OF THE LOW WILL BRING ABOUT A CHANGEOVER TO A RAIN/SNOW MIX AND PERHAPS A BRIEF TIME OF LIGHT SNOW MONDAY EVENING BEFORE PRECIPITATION EXITS THE AREA. BASED ON CURRENT TIMING OF CHANGEOVER IN THE EVENING AND LIGHT QPF AMOUNTS...DO NOT EXPECT MUCH IN THE WAY OF ANY SNOW ACCUMULATION FROM THIS SYSTEM. CHRISTMAS DAY LOOKS TO HAVE FAIR WEATHER WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES. THE ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO A STORM SYSTEM THAT MAY AFFECT THE AREA CHRISTMAS NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING. FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS MODELS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTING THEIR FORECAST POSITIONS ON A DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW IN THE SOUTH CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE CONUS AHEAD OF A DEEP TROUGH EXITING THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES ON CHRISTMAS DAY. THE 12Z ECMWF AND GFS ARE SUGGESTING THAT THIS STORM WILL TRACK ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY ON WEDNESDAY. THERE ARE STILL LARGE DIFFERENCES AMONGST THE FORECAST MODELS FOR THE EXACT LOW TRACK AND HOW COLD TEMPERATURES WILL BE ALOFT WITH THIS LOW. WENT WITH A ECMWF WEIGHTED CONSENSUS BLEND FOR POPS AND TEMPERATURES DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. THE TRACK FORECAST WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO SHIFT FROM RUN TO RUN AS WE ARE STILL 5 DAYS OUT. WENT LIKELY FOR POPS DURING THE MOST CONFIDENT TIME PERIOD THAT THE SYSTEM WOULD AFFECT OUR AREA. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD EXIT THE REGION THURSDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FOR FRIDAY.

Besides the Euro, the GFS not being super suppressed right now is encouraging. Anyone who has been around knows that the GFS tends to take any opportunity possible to underplay an inland primary low.

that's true...usually it's the gfs squashing things at this range. The fact it takes the primary into KY is my biggest reason to be concerned about a sig shift north.

On a separate note....I'd bet tonight the ggem goes bonkers with some massive bomb
