Hoosier Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 With this event, Chicago officially can't have its least snowiest winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 totally believable, they seemed to be under great returns all afternoon. We may see a rogue 9 or 10" report come in from somewhere around there over toward the IN border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherpsycho Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 2" is a slam dunk. Question is can we hit 3" that would be a win in my book considering how bad it looked earlier Agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yeah, radar is amped over Tippecanoe Co right now. The flakes that are mixing in are pretty big though. Near parachutes. Good precip still extending well west of the border. I'd think we will lose this miniscule warm layer in the next hour or two tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargers09 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Got ourselves somewhere around an inch. Maybe a bit more. Returns have been decent between 94 and 59 in SE MI. Looking back to the west, it shouldnt be tough to get up to around 3 or so around here. Maybe a rogue 4 somewhere in the metro area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Road Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 5.7" about 20 minutes ago. Not a bad event at all. Looks like we'll finish between 6 and 7. can't complain about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeenerWx Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Snow is ridiculous right now. Won't even comment on the roads.
