Disappointment levels have been high to this point as highly advertised possible blockbuster winter has failed to produce SO FAR. we probably lost/are past the opportunity of even reaching normal over on this side of the state unless the rest of 'winter' GREATLY EXCEEDS expectations

LOT did just put up an advisory north of Chicago for the lake effect snow potential. Highest confidence in advisory amounts does seem to be in far southeast WI and the IL shore north of Chicago as the models stall the band out there. Still have models that stall it a second time later on somewhere around the IN state line but that is a lower confidence scaenario at this point. Will be interesting to see the LOT afd.

I noticed that. The big winners may be west and east of us.

In Kansas...Topeka has received reports of around 9" with snow still falling and Manhattan has a report of 12.5". I have a solid 8"+ with snow still falling. This will be my highest total in nearly 11 years!

Yet I get called scum for pointing out what always happens. Just trying to temper expectations
