Noticing that one. I'm not seeing how it is going to affect the
mid-west quite yet, but I also noticed that all of the models aren't
quite lining up. My alternative sources aren't giving a clear
indication. The New Mexico low pressure scooting to the NE is more of
a November/March pattern, but we're so whacky this year that anything
goes.

I figured that a full reservoir is a full reservoir no matter the source.

Are you thinking that my Great Lakes storm is the one that is going to
pound into that arctic low once it slides east?
One thing, for sure is that if things shape up the way I think they
might, we're certainly looking at supercells forming in the Kansas
City, Omaha, Des Moines triangle. Might have to anchor down the
downspouts so they don't blow away again. I did get the shelter
prepped and ready for diving into. Hmm.... Carpet!!!
