bud2380 Posted December 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 Well UKIE is barf too. So we'll see if the Euro does a full cave or not here. We basically have the Canadian and ICON still showing significant snow and every other model showing much less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted December 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 Euro is off and running. Time to find out if all our hopes and dreams have been destroyed or if faith has been restored. I'm thinking the former. The 6z came a tad north and a little less snow. I'm concerned the 12z will follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted December 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 I'm curious to see what the NWS does now. I'm sure they will side towards the lighter amounts as they usually do. They seem to have a GFS bias, which is somewhat baffling. But when you have one model showing an inch or less for most of the area and another showing 6"+ for a large portion of the area, not sure what you do there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not buying these numbers for anyone on this sub and especially for Chi-town northern burbs but one can only dream. Most likely a cold rain with some snow covering the grassy areas for our area and maybe 2-4 for areas NW of here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPM model is showing a changeover around noon and looked very similar to the Euro but not as robust. I think a couple of inches are possible from ORD and points west/north...the city is looking primarily rain and some backside light snow/showers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacsh Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 GFS has been consistent the last 24-36 hours. Euro is overplaying snow totals. Maybe not precip but certainly snow totals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bud2380 Posted December 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 NAM is further north with the 850 line than the Euro, so the snow line will be further north, but at least the strength of the system is back this run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even discuss model discrepancies or why they went with what they did other than lack of cold air and compaction, etc. No mention of how the GFS and Euro are worlds apart on this storm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
