For many years now seems we've suffered the opposite with the models always over-promising only to see them get lower and lower as zero hour approached, then even worse actual results. This is really a nice turnabout to see the SR models increasing over the globals and even then coming in a bit low vs actual results. Been waiting a long time for this and its exciting to see. Congrats on another nice storm score!

Oh my gosh that’s BEAUTIFUL!!! the trees in your yard give that cozy vibe too, so awesome! I haven’t been paying attention much this storm, I was just going to expect the worst and hope for the best. I did just check the RAP and while im not sure if I’m seeing it correctly, it looks like it has some intense rates right along the shoreline in Chicago for a bit? It isn’t reflected in the totals and is probably wrong anyways, if it ends up looking anything like what is happening in Iowa, I might have to stay up extra late and watch!

Hung around all day and kept temps in the 30s.

My forecast for next week shows chance for snow everyday and I mean everyday of the week and into the weekend. They must be seeing some storminess brewing and they are throwing that chance in there.

Euro has never been the same since that update 7 or 8 years ago.
