A touch of :weenie: but with the trough already going neg tilt at 72 and the models tending to dampen out primaries too quickly, I'm not totally buying into a dominant sfc low over VA at 96.

On the other hand, if that indeed happens to be the actually track, I can't see >0.75" QPF here at YYZ. Maybe March 4-5, 2001 comes close to being an analogue. But it's very rare coastal huggers throw that much juice this far west of the mountains.

Actually kind of surprised with the totals for DET/DTW with that track, I wasn't expecting such decent amounts. Hopefully this is the worst track possible (and thus most confluence possible). Still, Aside for a couple Euro runs of more significant amounts, the Euro has been consistent with a 4"+ event for Detroit.

Ofcourse this would be the time the blocking works out. Oh well.

I have had concern about the blocking but the hope was the models are too fast/strong with it again. They could still be but yeah hope is fading fast.

My fault for looking so far out in fantasy land and thinking to much blocking wouldn't be a problem.

what have we had now... 5 misses to the west since thanksgiving.. and now we go the other direction for at least a couple.. You win some but lose a lot more.. The heartaches of snow weenies and gamblers.

At least it hasn't been dry I'm closing in on 4" of rain for the month.. Rivals June and July combined.

3-5" south of 94. 2-3" north of it. Is the way I see it right now. I wonder if the ratios will be higher

How does the EURO look for Southern/South Central indiana?

looks like the Euro wants to start out with rain changing to snow for the 26-27th system, however it brings a dozy into your area on the 29-30th which I thought was a good possibility last night looking at it's telleconections , ie: -EPO, a strong west based -NAO ( centered over eastern Canada,) and a likely positive PNA, it all depends where the eastern ridge sets up as to the final track. And it has good support from the FIM model as well.

1-3" for me, 2-4" for you may be a better bet right now. Let's hope it doesn't trend even farther east, though I don't like our chances...

I like where we are right now because earlier it looked like things may trend towards Chitown. With this small SE trend, were ripe for a last second jog NW in a day or 2 which would put us in the bullseye. Maybe Im to optimistic but I like our chances. And the winds look respectable, possibly gusting to 45mph on all the models so what may fall wil blow around. I plan to be under a winter storm watch by monday pm. lol Wish me luck.

Yes.. The rains are a very good thing and thus much needed. I hate droughts more then anything.

But yeah this is why i always tell people up this way to watch what they wish for when it concerns blocking. Blocking is never a good thing for snow lovers especially here where i am unless you get a 1,000yr event like Jan 78. lol

I hear you. Of course if the 0z Euro stayed the course, I'd probably be even more nervous/pessimistic (NW move, blah blah). But the consensus of the models is for a grazing for here...and it's hard to argue against that right now. I like your location much better than mine. Time will tell I guess.

wasn't it like 4 yrs ago that block from hell set up that pinwheeled every clipper and snow event around us.... Hoosier and the gang scored huge though

I would agree with this completely, as hm8 quoted me earlier I think there are some convective feedback issues going on with respect to the low track. Not too surprising considering the prospects of severe weather down South that the model would have some convective issues.

I am not trying to step on anyone's toes, but folks in East Central IL, LAF, STL to the SE. Don't give up on this yet.

I'd agree....tomorrow night's 00z will have this firmly in the euro 72 hr window, if it hold at that point, it's probably over....until then still likely it shifts in track or strength or both.

Ugh.. Good ole 2010-2011 i believe you are talking about? The winter of fringe events imby. Ofcourse GHD wasn't too bad imby but nothing like areas just to my west/nw got from it.

Could be 2009-2010 but this was not to shabby here. Ofcourse the lake saved the day in Dec with the Planes blizzard and then Feb was rocking here..

I can recall so many events that trended NW and screwed me (and helped you) but I recall one storm in particular that actually helped me and that was late Jan 09 when Paducah got that huge ice storm. We were on the fringe for days and 48 hours before the NW trend set in and we ended up with 13 inches of snow. Of course this situation is different, but after getting slopfest so many times in the last 5 years I feel better with all the guidance SE this early in the game. Call me crazy though! Idk LOL
