    Snow is definitely blowing around more and not sticking to objects as expected. Even with that, it's definitely not a fluffy snow either.
  2. Chicago Storm
    It's been snowing in the 88/355 area for a while now, so unlikely that far east.
  3. Chicago Storm
    welcome to... .
  4. Chicago Storm
    I'd lean no, but the quick start to 2" certainly helps.
  5. Chicago Storm
    Not with the R/S line flying northeastward, and about to pass town.
  6. Chicago Storm
    0.6" ORD and 0.8" MDW thus far.
  7. Chicago Storm
    Obviously has been just about all snow in much of the Chicago metro thus far, but the R/S line is finally crashing south of RFD and west towards Rt 47, for other portions of the LOT CWA.
  8. Chicago Storm
    zzz.
  9. Chicago Storm
    Heavier precip steadily/rapidly pushing northward into Chicago metro now.
  10. Chicago Storm
    Can mean anywhere between 0.5”-1.4”. .
  11. Chicago Storm
    It's not subsidence. More of the issue with drier air flowing in from the east across NE IL. Further west across the DVN this issue doesn't exist, due to less dry air at the start.
  12. Chicago Storm
    ORD dropped from 34 to 30 as the snow has started.
  13. Chicago Storm
    Quickly went from mixed precip, to snow pellets to full on SN with good flake size. .
  14. Chicago Storm
    Mixed precip has commenced here. Locked and loaded for 10".
  15. Chicago Storm
    nice fake out. .
  16. Chicago Storm
    I skimmed fairly quickly and didn’t see it mentioned, but 6z Euro bumped precip amounts as well... .
  17. Chicago Storm
    Unless you mean the usual mix seen when saturation is first occurring, we’re not going to see a legitimate mix this far NE. .
  18. Chicago Storm
    where's threat #2? mine didn't produce, yours needs to.
  19. Chicago Storm
    0z GEM a bit wetter across E IA/N IL, and many other areas to the S and SE.
  20. Chicago Storm
    It's also wetter, with 1.40"+ precip at ORD. It did run a bit too wet with the last storm system, so chop a bit off and it's still respectable.
  21. Chicago Storm
    0z GFS is actually wetter across N IL.
  22. Chicago Storm
    The good news is that the ARW/NMM/NSSL WRF all are much wetter and snowier than the NAM/3KM NAM. Usually wouldn't mention them much in the winter, but might be of some use this go around.
  23. Chicago Storm
    RGEM is drier as well, across IA into NW IL.
  24. Chicago Storm
    probably looking at a dab+.
  25. Chicago Storm
    The NAM trending drier makes little sense looking at things. For example, PWATS are the highest on a NAM run yet, in excess of 0.80" up to DVN.
