Chicago Storm

i’ve enjoyed it.

where’s the doom and gloom squad after the 0z runs?

there is no pessimism on this end.

still waiting on that to show up and work out for them. at least the carolinas cashed in.

ya’ll are fun to watch.

yea, that really inflates things now. i was looking back at ghd1 and ghd2 recently. neither had a single shift over 20 speci.

Aircraft induced snowfall stat-padding yesterday, with 0.1" at ORD... …2025/26 Season Snowfall... 31.3" - ORD 24.0" - RFD

that dude/page is literally the worst thing out there, by far.

solid. that 27 by the swo a week or so ago is the highest anyone can recall for here.

billy madison accomplished that feat a week or so ago. i had 25 and the swo had 27.

it seems to be within the realm of possibility.

precision is the name of the game on this end. sadly, i’ve never eclipsed 3” of snow on a given shift.

an excerpt from this mornings lot afd. this is the same guy that went deep weenie the one shift prior to the nov les event. what he mentioned in the below afd is flat out dumb to say, especially since it’s simply not true. it seems very clear that she should not be in the position of work that he is in. in other words, not in an important nws roll. /rant “JUST HAVE TO NOTE... IF WE WEREN'T DEALING WITH DRY LOW-LEVEL AIR PROBLEMS THIS MORNING, THE AXIS OF 1 TO 4 INCHES OF SNOW PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE LIKE 6 TO 12 INCHES (IF NOT MORE) OF SNOW. THESE NARROW CONVECTIVE SNOW BAND EVENTS ARE THE WINTERTIME EQUIVALENT OF SUMMERTIME TRAINING THUNDERSTORM EVENTS, AND CAN JUST HAMMER THE SAME AREA ALL DAY/NIGHT LEADING TO VERY PRONOUNCED IMPACTS. SO, THANK YOU DRY AIR.”

ORD ended up with 2.6" of snow as a result of the LES event on Friday... …2025/26 Season Snowfall... 31.2" - ORD 24.0" - RFD

Random stat alert... For the first time since the winter of 1978/79, Chicago has had average or above average snowfall in each month (Nov-Dec-Jan).
