Dec 8-9th Snow Event


Chicago Storm
 Share

Recommended Posts

 

Part of a trough currently along the West Coast will translate east across the CONUS mid to late week.

 

Should have the opportunity for a corridor of snow on the northern end of the system. Track and strength still tbd, dependent on shallow ridging ahead of wave and blocking north, in the wake of the departing Canadian PV lobe.

1" here but southside wins again. Lakefront just a mixy mess

Re: Lake... Whether this event ends up in WI or IL, lake water temps are down in the low 40°'s now. A good 10° lower than was in place with the event from a few weeks ago.

No surprise to see the gfs warmer and further north at this range. Didn't track many storms last year but the few I did, it had the same bias. 

The GFS has actually done fairly well in recent times.

However, with the recent upgrade that's in limbo now.

There were more upgrades in the last year?....the euro looks good for Iowa/Wisconsin, but the Ole precip weakens as it heads east crap again...

Josh already answered the first portion, but as for the second portion... It has to do with the wave dampening/shearing out as it encounters blocking/confluence off to the NE/E.

Here's a NAM forecast sounding from northeastern IL on Friday.  Nice lift with good omega present in the region of steep lapse rates aloft, and this also resides in the DGZ.  I think it's going to rip for a while, especially out around O'Hare and northward but perhaps even south of there.

That's a questionable statement.
