When a storm hits us (NE Wisconsin most of the time, SE Wisconsin some of the time) with a lot of snow the low usually tracks between Chicago and Sheboygan. If a low would go any farther west and north, Eastern Wisconsin is missed with the snow and gets rain. The current path of the pending storm is almost a whole state west tracking in from SW WI and exiting either the central or western UP. But forecasts including yours are indicating some healthy snow totals for the region with the big winner being the Twin Cities. Here is my question, is this storm going to pull in that much cold air to make the precip snow on the front side of the low? I am preparing myself for a gulley washer here in SE Wisconsin, but it is somewhat an abnormal scenario for it to snow that much given the present track of the low. What are the factors with this storm that is creating this abnormal scenario?
