    Indeed. 2” soil temp still in the upper 30’s here, and probably a bit higher down there...So I’d imagine any accretion is on elevated/colder surfaces. .

    i lose that battle. .

    Can see CC quickly crashing east on KLOT and SE a bit on ILX. Probably all snow to near I-39 now, north of I-80. .

    he’s still digging out from february. .

    I’ve been pretty much think 1-3” for the CWA along and north of I-80. However, I fully agree that there is much more upside potential. If thermals work out as the GFS/RAP and others show, definitely could see an axis of 3-6”+ into the CWA. .

    the best... .

    With colder air not filtering in until right before things are getting going, there isn’t going to be sufficient time for the already mild surfaces/ground to catch up. Add in that’s it’s noting going to get colder than the upper 20’s most likely either. Maybeee elevated surfaces towards the end, but that’s a stretch depending on how long precip actually lasts.

    I'd just about totally discount the FZRA threat, and I'm not big on the sleet potential either. Probably will be a mostly snow or rain event.

    Un-Warned tor north of Shallowater, TX a bit ago... .

    Looks like the question isn’t if it’s going to snow Sun night-Mon, but how much... .

    Parts of the area had 50-60MPH wind gusts last night. Peaks were 60MPH at UGN and 55MPH at ORD. .

    The HRRR has done very well since we flipped to the milder pattern. Has hit on just about every warmer day thus far around here. So I’d say ride it... .

    GFS upgrade is still scheduled for March 17th, per latest update. .

    NWS is sliding further into the dumpster as time goes on. .

    59 at ORD and 60 at MDW today. Early-mid next week will easily top those numbers, but currently warmest since mid-November. .

    Down to 4” snow depth at RFD and 5” at ORD, with outlying areas across N IL still in the 6-9” range. That should all vanish the next two days, with temps into the 50’s, and also DP’s into the 40’s today and even the 50’s for a time tomorrow. .
