agreed hope to get some snow from the saturday system.

Hi-Res keep drying this thing out. So do the globals, but to a lesser extent. HRRR has me down to about 0.02" of ice. NAM at 0.01". IWX holding off on headlines until the morning. Expect a WWA even if it's just a glaze since even that can cause problems on the roads.

Still a complete crush job on the 12z Euro for NW Ohio while it's peanuts on the NAM. I think CLE likely goes ahead with a Winter Storm or Ice Storm Warning tomorrow morning if we can get some model consensus, that east wind off the icy lake should help metro Toledo combat surface temp increases coming from both the warm surge of air aloft along with the latent heat release that comes with freezing rain

The 18z euro is the driest run yet here. It has .02 total precip for this “storm”. lol

Well that went to hell fast. Imagine the meltdown had this been a 3-6”er down to less than an inch inside 24 hours.
 

I’m good without the ice though.

Yeah. A stronger and more organized storm would have given both of us freezing rain changing to rain. There was never really much chance of snow for either of us with this one.
