:weenie:  :snowing:  :lmao: .. Weenie Run look at that 3+ inch blob there in Central NJ.. Either the NAM or GFS is gonna bust VERY BADLY.. I am thinking(hoping) it will be the GFS. I posted a few Days ago with such a big and powerful storm I was betting on the Nam when its in its range to show at least one or two Runs Super juiced up. I think this qualifies.

FWIW the NAM except for the 00z 3/5 run did very well the past few days with the inverted trough that just smacked us here in northern Illinois. 9.2", 4th largest calendar day snowfall on record for Chicago. Can definitely attest to inverted troughs producing, even in March, with a long duration moderate, occasionally heavy snow. The NAM actually did pretty well too with the big storm out here on 2/26, persistently showed higher qpf from far northeastern IL into east central Wisconsin that ended up being 12-18" of snow for those areas. 

 

Honestly don't know what to tell my family in Queens about this storm since the model differences this close to the event are unreal. 

I was in Chicago for the holidays and every newscast was about the record snow drought.

Pendulum completely swung the other way, it's been incredible. 3.5" through January 1st at Chicago-O'Hare, the climate site for Chicago, which I think was the least snow on record through 1/31. Now up to 29.5" and only 1.2" below the to date normal season snow.

I have friends that live in Naperville. Great area

The Euro ensembles are a tick north of the OP, but nothing too crazy. Maybe 20-30 miles or so (at hours 24 and 30).

The ensembles have a pretty strong signal for the inverted trough, as well.

Thanks. Extrapolated, since it is NW some, do you think that the ensembles bring the CCB onshore since the operational had it just off the coast?
