Those recently affected by the Midwest storm may have to deal with yet another one in less than a weeks time. We are seeing signs that a rain-to-snow event may hit cities like Chicago, IL that recently were hit with up to 8 inches of snow in some localized areas. Here's a map from Accuweather Meteorologist Henry Margusity:
As of now, my confidence in this forecast is pretty medium. The ensembles are in fair agreement over a rain-to-heavy snow scenario for the Lower Great Lakes. The GFS/ECMWF are also in some moderate agreement in placement of the storm.
Something EXTREMELY INTERESTING we found while finishing up gathering snow totals from Chicago was that the Chicago NWS office put out a 'Likely' chance of snow for this system- a rarity considered the horrible model results this year:
We will definitely keep you updated as Old Man Winter wakes up.
