I’m sure the spreadsheets say otherwise, but regarding drought, there have been so many brush fires out by me to start this spring Locally this past fall, winter, and now spring have been extremely dry. Couple that with some very high winds, there have been sirens quite often from neighboring towns heading off to the plume of smoke off in the distance. Burning leaves, even when things have been damp, is no problem at all. It’s almost scary to fire up the Smokey Joe right now for some brats. Just a very dry period locally and looking forward to a wet and humid spring to bring everything back to life out my way

lol .

Consistent? Easy where you move them goal posts dude! Need to find them for later Enjoy the 70s next week!

Not unreasonable at all, 70s in March happening every year it feels like. Shoot, it was 68 on my car dash just 3 weeks ago before the cold snap hit

WGN says I’m at 72 next Tuesday

No one has ill intent and it make all the sense In the world why people want warmth after a long winter. Bring on Morch this year and every year thereafter

March 8th 1998 was one of my favorite weather events of all time. I was about 11 miles due south of midway airport. Woke up to a heavy wet snow that was caked to every tree, garage door, light pole etc. Somewhat unexpected and I think that one might have started as a rainer

Beautiful brother

We can Morch?

Didn’t we just have a week worth of awful crusty frozen dirty snow and below zero temps?

Bad is good at this stage of the game. We are down 20 with 2 minutes on the clock. Best play is to beat the traffic and get to spring. I don’t need to see the end of this one.

Start it up playboy. Shoot, where is our spring banter thread? Any winter weather going forward isn’t going to last long.

Worst climo

Amen. Been a couple years since we’ve had winter. Just yesterday I was looking up the Illini baseball schedule. I’m already in spring mode.

I watch the LOT updates like a hawk (and this forum) when a storm is forecast simply because I don’t know what you all know. That said, I don’t think I can remember a time when LOT updated their graphics so often with so many forecast changes. Their graphic now shows me in the 70-100% chance of accumulating snow. Early this AM they had my location entirely as a wintry mix with little to no new accumulation Weird Storm for the pros and seasoned weather nerds

Tough times. 10 days ago things looked banging. Actually got lucky with the snow a couple days ago but to come away with *maybe* 5 inches during this active period is sort of a bummer when all said and done. Lots of tracking and very little payoff

This thing supposed to kick off tomorrow and we don’t know what’s up?

Got to believe we are on the higher end of totals compared to other locations. Edit - Euro looking nice for this weekend as well.

Really coming down. Perfect time of evening. Beautiful out

Very pretty out right now

I’m still a hype man myself. Give me a clown map 7 days out and a WSW 3 days out.

Broke my collarbone yesterday lol, perfect timing for a true shovel worthy snowfall

Freezing rain is mentioned for us in the 2:30 AFD

Looking like 1-3 inches here in IKK and some freezing rain. Big time lol

It’s just marketing boys
