  1. IND only has 0.8" of snow so far. Through 1/16, it's the 3rd lowest snowfall to date, only behind 1940-41 and 1970-71.
  2. Great storm. Hopefully we get another one or two of these in the sub this winter.
  3. Living near I-80 and getting beat by Tennessee halfway through January.
  4. Heading toward the time of year when fluff on the ground fights the sun angle. Good stuff.
  5. Precip wise, it appears that the less likely scenario (compared to that outlook) is going to happen north of the Ohio Valley. Been a dry first half of the month with no sign that it will appreciably turn around in the next couple weeks.
  6. They never got completely out of last year's drought, so yeah. Not necessarily an immediate problem but if the next few months are dry, then it sets up in a potentially bad way.
  7. Glad to see you getting snow there in southern Mississippi.
  8. It's the little things like this to keep you going through the boring times.
  9. I think it also depends if you're comparing actual temps or anomalies. If you compare the anomalies from that last ~10 days of Jan 2019 to the last 10 days of Feb 2015 at MSN, it's a closer contest vs comparing the actual temps. Bunch of days more than 20 degrees below average both times. I would give the edge to 2019 though, because it had a couple obnoxious days there at the end of the month with temps more than 30 degrees below average.
  10. Would be something if Mayfield, KY gets a devastating tornado and then a couple feet of snow a month later.
  11. The extreme stuff was in and out though in Jan 2019. The tweet is referencing a 10 day period (well, technically 11 days) so would have to compare over that timeframe.
  12. Probably doesn't hurt having dews below freezing too. You really melt fast when both temps and dews are well above freezing.
  13. Icy layer on top of the snow from the freezing rain this past weekend may be helping to slow the melt?
  14. Kind of a strange setup with the south dive and then such a quick/sharp turn northeast. Not really expecting this to keep trending west indefinitely but it's certainly looking more favorable for areas to the east. Unfortunately the lake effect parameters aren't that good while the flow is from a favorable direction, so can't even count on that to contribute anything of note around here.
  15. Hopefully it wraps up so much that it rains on I-95. That is always a nice consolation with big storms out east.
  16. I may have to start going all-in on drought if February somehow manages to be dry.
  17. Almost guaranteed that ORD will torch this summer.
  18. Went back and checked something from last year. ORD seasonal snowfall total on 1/10/2021: 5.4" ORD seasonal snowfall total on 1/10/2022: 6.1" Will a rally as big as last year come walking through the door? Tall order, but anything can happen.
  19. We need to add more damage indicators to the EF scale, imo. I mean things like vehicles, crops, etc. I realize that may be easier said than done, but since we are dealing with a damage based scale, the way to make it better (not perfect, but better) is to have more things to evaluate.
  20. Was sitting here thinking about the return rate on 60+ tornadoes in Iowa in December. I can't even take a guess.
