Is there a reason the NWS isn't sounding the alarm yet on the potential severe impacts given the wind and temperatures combined with the snow? They have a graphic that says minor to potentially moderate impacts?

Heres the Cobb output from that GFS run Cumulative LSR's are 16:1 with total snowfall of 14.8"  |

If this storm happens on Thursday depending on how much we get could the roads be cleared by Saturday?

They have a graphic that says minor to potentially moderate impacts? They just released a story. Growing concern for moderate impacts. Which that messaging is fine in a normal week, but this week is anything but normal with demands on commerce and transportation. The prudent thing to do is to have holiday and showed in preparations completed by Wednesday morning. |

Heres the Cobb output from that GFS run Cumulative LSR's are 16:1 with total snowfall of 14.8" If nothing else the snow depth product from the recent GFS update looks more accurate. That is one thing that was said to have been significantly improved. |

4 racks of baby backs and 6 beef short ribs. It's cold but the smoking must go on. I've found that my smoker is more consistent in cold weather. I smoked a whole mallard duck several weeks ago when it was in the 20s, and had it pegged at 225* for the full 2.5 hours...I always get flare ups and temp spikes in hot weather. It was a smashing success. Just gotta dress for it! |

Euro isnt as perfect as the GFS but that's still an extreme run
That would shut down the city for awhile

12z euro has 2-5 inches, extreme winds, and temps crashing to -10 by Friday morning.
Then it goes nuts over Lake Michigan.
Amazing run with even some untapped potential if the bombing out process starts sooner.

Even though the Euro shuts down snowfall late Thursday night, it still has winds gusting to 50 mph during the day Friday
Ground blizzard

Can't pick up my big roast and perishables until Christmas Eve. I've got everything else ordered. If we're stuck, looks like frozen lasagne or chili for Christmas. I do not have the time to cook a holiday meal and freeze it before then.  |

The Euro is a step in the right direction with the overall picture (for more snow/stronger system). That being said if it was only the snow and not over the holiday most would agree. The combined impacts may make most think it's not a step in the right direction.

In theory that's great. In reality, I have a 15 pound prime rib with my name on it for Christmas Eve at the store that I can't get until then, and a family with SOs showing up in the next two days. I have to feed them all for the duration. Gonna need a few more pizzas......................................................................................................................... Argh.

12z euro is onboard with a clipper on the 26th as well. Currently, it would skirt the northeastern metro, but pretty good agreement across the primary models that this feature will exist in the region.

The differences between the 00z and 12z EC is subtle, but a step in the right direction. It's definitely trended a bit further SW with the mid-level low and slows the eastward movement a bit which allows for more prolonged and robust post-frontal Fgen snowfall. Not the monster that the GFS is...but impacts would still be significant to extreme.

Definite shift west on the EPS compared to the 00z data. Need just a small SW jog with these lows for a true kaboom ala GFS  |

I'm just so glad no one is in danger of icing with this. The impacts will be far reaching for sure, but I couldn't even imagine a significant icing event and power outages with the conditions that will follow the storm.
