Headed to Wisconsin today and if necessary Ohio next week. If the snow won't come to me I'll come to it. I'll provide real pics of what snow on the ground looks like for my friends in Chicago....snow piles,even, maybe 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 3-4 wintry shots in the short to medium range, using ensemble guidance (EPS and GEFS). 1/22-23 looks like a light deal. 1/25-26 moderate event, has potential higher ceiling Maybe a clipper-ish type system somewhere in-between the above and below 1/30-31 same as 1/25-26, but too far out to have much confidence I wouldn't get too high or too low with the op runs right now, as they're essentially just another ensemble member in the medium/long range. Just my opinion, but I'd rather be north of the modeled snow swath in the "long" short and medium range at this point, based off pattern on the ensembles. Regardless, best potential for a sustained wintry pattern (longer than 5 days) for a lot of us this winter. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimillman Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 The good news is western New York will be at 200” by the end of the month and that evens out the national average, so really we’re all winners!! 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnOvechkin Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Next 10 days look very snowy on the Canadian for just about everyone. Euro and GFS leave north-central Indiana out of most of the action, offering a frustrating solution with heavy snowfall narrowly missing us every time, whether to the north or south. Meanwhile GDPS and GEM place us in a bulls-eye and leave us with 8" or more on the ground when all is said and done. Whatever happens, it looks like a lot of us will see a lot of snow next week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbnwx85 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 The lake effect machine could be running at full throttle late next week around here.

cyclone77 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 The 12z Euro shows a 2"er Saturday night/early Sunday for the QC. That would be the number 1 event of the season if we can somehow reel that puppy in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCNYILWX Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 The weekend deal is a step back from some of the GFS runs that had earlier phasing. That looks unlikely now. The southern wave gets embedded in the northern stream trough but not quite a full phase until later Sunday-Sunday night off to the east. Overall enough large scale ascent at the mid and upper levels plus saturation in the DGZ for light to moderate snow rates and accumulations. Current global and majority of ensemble guidance evolution would suggest that suppression by the northern stream is less likely but the ceiling for snow amounts is probably up to 3-4" if enhanced banding materializes and a general 1-3" otherwise.Suppression remains on the table if there's destructive interference between the northern stream and southern stream. Also some of the op models and ensemble members, most notably the GFS, are gapping some areas due to subsidence outside of banding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A gulf low running up to along the Ohio River is a historically great track for the lower Great Lakes in general before transferring off the coast.
