I just want a few inches to go sledding this weekend. A campout with my daughter with half melted piles of snow that have turned to ice doesn't sound like much fun. 

I'd be thrilled to get a few inches at this point. The past couple winters have really f*cked the NW burbs. Hell, I'd just love to have some precip in general considering we've been in a severe drought for months.

For the LOT cwa, at this point I think there's enough confidence to start talking up a sig-major storm/impact in the area, while expressing the uncertainty that remains particularly farther north in the cwa.

They have been.

If something resembling the stronger models verifies, it's going to result in an outsized impact for whatever amount of ice that occurs.  Just a tenth or two of ice with 40+ mph gusts would act more like a quarter to half inch would in light winds.

Well, unfortunately it is Feb, climo ice time around our neck of the woods.
