Counterpoint to the idea that you're living in the wrong area if you root for big storms. I'd agree if you mean you want a big storm every winter. We're going on 7 years since our last single snowfall that reached even 8 inches. Even for this area, that's a pretty extended stretch. So can't really blame the folks who are feeling that way.

ICON looks much like yesterday's system at this range tbh. Fropa with a wave along it. Pumps ser ahead of the system and drives primary into Lake Superior. Next up, the CMC and GFS

The key is what the TPV does. Icon is back to the euro idea of 48 hours ago dropping the whole thing into the west. That pumps a ridge that links with the “block” creating just a full latitude ridge in the east. The solution we want is the tpv to side under the block and just a piece to drop in behind.

Arctic squall line with thunder and rain turning to snow for 5 minutes then flash freeze? We take?

While we wait for the GFS and real discussion... I'd take something that wild over a 1-2" pure snow event. From 60 to 20 in an hour or so? It would feel unbelievable

Weenie handbook 3rd edition....Chapter 2 section 4 paragraph 7 states "when the model starts failing on the storm 7 days out we say that it is 'setting up for the followup system 2 days later'"

The storm after the storm (and after that storm... and after that storm.. and then winter 2023 - 2024 on December 5.. and )
