I'm more pessimistic on this one... I'm surprised by NWS DVN going with the amounts they are.

I will be interested to see the evening runs to see if the weakening continues...

The deep cyclone to the North might be causing a bit more confluence than was earlier thought and might make it take longer to saturate to the surface, lots of little things that can add up.

Coincidentally, hello again everyone :-)

Looking like cold rain with some wet flurries mixed in at times for here.

Welcome to the board. It's nice to see another poster from the Toronto area.

I haven't posted that much lately but I have been reading the board on a daily basis. As for this event, it looks like a mixture of rain showers and flurries, but if the model trends of a weaker SE solution continue, we may get some wet snow. But as of now, that's a long shot.

For anyone enjoying the southern trend..... plows and salters still not hooked up. For extreme SE Michigan I expect a slop fest, perhaps a marginal squeegee plowing event. While the issue will be not the main snow but rather the evening freeze of the leftovers on the ground.

Gotta be overdone. I can't buy into those totals in November. Even if anything remotely close to that falls, I imagine snowcover following the storm will pale in comparison. Still think much of the first half of the storm will be lost to melting/mixing/warmth/sloppy sludge.

Solar insolation is equal to January 21st.

The only reason the cold pool is small is thermal inertia from the oceans

Were pretty far from the ocean

Everyone enjoy! So jealous. Solid event setting up for ya'all. Not sure about stats, but can't imagine nothing good comes out of significant November snowfalls.

 

 

I actually ran the stats for Chicago the other day, and significant November snow does tilt the odds in favor of a snowier than average season.  Granted, this might not be the case in other places.

Looking good Geos.  IF somebody is going to bag double digits out of this, I'd bet on it being somewhere near you (maybe just inland).

 

Yeah like Tuanis. He's a bit further inland. I am 4.5 miles inland. Just beyond the 12" range on the map above^.
