  1. Seems like a good bet. I'd imagine LOT will expand all the headlines south by a county or two if trends hold.
  2. Warning issued, let's do this. I'll be happy with 5 inches.
  3. Eyeballin things looks to be 6 or so inches out there. Was out playing in it all night. Definitely delivered up here.
  4. Today would’ve been fun weather for the Norge Ski Jump. Steady as she goes. Hard to say if we’ll get much a lull. Looks like about 2.5” new out there but I haven’t done a proper measurement as the kids have kept me busy with their excitement. Rates have been solid. Flakes have been fluffballs under the good returns. Keep it comin.
  5. Yeah, Iowa roads look to be moving well.
  6. The heaviest accumulations WILL ride along hwy 20 and north in Iowa, but it’s like the NAM didn’t see this WAA wing cruising through the rest of Iowa and into the Quad Cities area/Peoria/Bloomington. Although it is lifting north pretty darn quick.
  7. Yeah that north of hwy 20 business that the NAM was pushing for days was way off base.
  8. 5” storm total seems doable here with the fronto band lifting into WI this afternoon before things fill back in into the evening. Bring it. Best potential looks to be along the lake between here and Port Washington. Racine or MKE could hit double digits. Good luck all.
  9. The goods. Missed primo opportunity on the snow squall warning fo sho. https://imgur.com/a/j5EpJ4I
  10. Hey neighbor. I’ll take 10+ hours of that please & thanks.
  11. This kind of system can be our bread & butter up here. Hope it delivers. The fronto band can really dump, but often seems to drift further north than anticipated instead of sitting overhead. Fingers crossed.
  12. Yeah, I was gonna say... we had about 6 hours with no grass tips today. They're baaaaack. Didn't have to do the driveway though, it just about melted off by 3 PM. So I got that goin' for me which is nice.
  13. While the grass is (finally) covered for the first time this season, I'm debating if I should even clear my long-a$$ driveway. Between the relatively warm asphalt, a bit of solar energy, and melting it looks ma nature might just take care of it for me by the afternoon, leaving me just a few spots to clean up with a shovel. Perk of marginal temps & warm-ish ground temps.
  14. Per radar FWA and LFT look like the spot to be for the next hour or two. Enjoy the goods!
  15. Looks like the surface LP has crossed the Ohio River into southern IN. A lot of models had it riding south of the river through northern KY, so glad to see the system didn't crap the bed at the 11th hour. About 2" of wet stuff here so far... honestly it's more than I expected. Trees look nice with every branch caked in gloop. Hoping the upcoming pattern delivers some drier more mid-winter type snows.
  16. These marginal temps are a buzzkill. This system for the most part looks like a drippy slopfest. This thing would deliver if we had some cold air involved (the weekend potential has the goods to tap into... here's to hoping it materializes).
  17. This would’ve stuck to a frozen ground. Temps held below freezing up here today which is why it never melted from the trees. I can dig a hole no problem anywhere in my yard. It’s late January. That ain’t right. Solar energy did play a role, obviously. Some sheltered spots still have a bit of cover. But again, it’s late January, not April.
  18. Trees and anything elevated are still caked yet the ground is so warm it melted about 90% of the snow. Not sure I’ve seen that before.
  19. Maxed out at about a half inch accumulation around 8 AM. It’s been a pretty snowfall since, but melting quicker than it can accumulate.
  20. Ride the seasonal trend. Ready to call it up here… the “double duster”. A dusting tonight that melts tomorrow, and fringe flurry fest for the mid-week system. Can’t wait
  21. Maybe next year when we get rid of the Niña. The last couple years have been rough. Late Jan-mid Feb 2021 was the last solid wintry period we had in the north/northwest burbs. Things got deep.
  22. You'd hope that just once he'll drop this Annie Lennox video instead. Probably not this year.
  23. Update: grass blades out front are now 90% covered. Looking at Google Maps, roads just about everywhere are slow moving. I hope western LP Michigan gets absolutely walloped (but everyone takes precautions and makes it through just fine).
  24. They’ve been nice lookin flakes for sure. Well-formed dendrites clumping together.
