Peak of 80 here at ORD thus far today. Edit: 81 for a high.
-
A high of 76° on 3/26/1989 is the warmest Easter prior to April 10th on record. Tomorrow could get close. .

March 2021 was tied 10th warmest March on record for Chicago... Top 10 warmest March's 1. 53.5° - 2012 2. 48.6° - 1945 2. 48.6° - 1910 4. 47.2° - 1946 5. 45.8° - 1921 6. 45.3° - 1878 6. 45.1° - 1973 8. 45.1° - 1938 9. 44.7° - 1977 10. 44.2° - 2021 10. 44.2° - 2000

RH made it down to 16% for a time today at ORD...Which was only a few % off the record min.
-
first need an actual lockdown for that. .
-
That’s really not the case... There is no significant forcing via teleconnections, until maybe we get into mid April. Definitely could get into a stagnant pattern for a bit. .
-
Overdone for that timeframe. .
-
that’s not the same thing overall.
-
Sat-Mon are the only locked mild/warm days. After that there is a lot of question. That once wall to wall warm late March into mid April idea is a distant memory. .
-
Kudos to the RGEM/GEM, which were generally weaker/east most runs leading into today. .
-
Guidance did terribly with this storm system, which obviously had an affect on the severe t'storm risk for a large area...and will have an affect on the wind/rain aspects for many areas as well. As others mentioned above, the Euro was particularly bad... The 0z run had a 981MB SLP in NW IN tonight, while the new 18z run has a 992mb SLP in NW OH.

Activity to the south finally starting to interact with it a bit.
-
It went right over the Bibb County correctional facility.
-
Catch-all severe and wind thread...
-
This says it all... Just a little more instability off from being way more. .

Spring 2021 Medium/Long Range Discussion
Chicago Storm replied to madwx's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Same out here in the suburbs. Many of the early flowers are up, and some trees/scrubs are budding. . -
Famous last words. Today is as marginal as marginal gets. .
-
GFS upgrade occurred as expected this morning. .
-
The environment with this potential is really not that far off the environment from that day. Guidance the past day or so have really slowed things, with most of the potential being across MO/S IA now. .
-
Has similarities to 12/1/18. .
-
It has been re-scheduled for March 22nd. .
-
Ice pellets where I am just west of ORD right now. .

March 17-18 Severe Weather Event
Chicago Storm replied to DanLarsen34's topic in Southeastern States
Speaking of... Spann doing a terrible job today. Kept mentioning numerous times that storm would miss Tuscaloosa by a long shot, when in reality it had been running parallel to I-20 for quite a while. -

you have a lot to learn. . -
