DocATL Posted December 17 Share Posted December 17 we're all fighting over scraps at this pointlol it’s wild. I’m praying for an inch like I did in the southeast. At least it gets cold enough to snow. As I say that the GEFS has Chicago above freezing for nearly 10 straight days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeselandSkies Posted December 17 Share Posted December 17 Recent stretch of GFS runs has had a signal that says watch out for chances between Christmas and New Year's...could be anywhere from the Deep South to Iowa at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually shows in the EPs Run the negative departures there then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although still looks good for a little snow here, which will be festive for the week leading up top Christmas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still runs out of gas considerably compared to NW of here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I know. But 1-2" is better than nothing. Nice way to kick off the winter solstice. So far this season, DTW has had 7 days with 1" of snow on the ground, another 6 days with a T, but no depth of 2" or greater yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't bite until I see consistency, plus we still need it west of where its showing now. That has more of the current cold but dry look. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowstorms Posted December 17 Share Posted December 17 16 hours ago, DocATL said: Punt to later in January. Not winter entirely. It’s gonna take a while to find cold from here: . Agreed. Plus the lack of sea ice in Hudson Bay and near Baffin Island is really concerning. Doesn't bode well for any sustained cold in the East anytime soon. And a 5 day cool down later this week won't help with the torch expected later next week. Our best chance for any sustained winter is likely mid Jan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted December 17 Share Posted December 17 the key here is, if neither i nor ohweather are talking up something interesting, there's nothing to see for our region. sure, there's thread the needle patterns here and there, but many of you want more than that. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
