  1. i don’t think some of you understand what a lockdown really is. no one in this country has had a lockdown. .
  2. 1.2” at DSM. Bit further south, and it would have been game. .
  3. That report was at the NWS office, so legit. .
  4. Think you’re being overly negative. Cooling is occurring, with most sites dropping several degrees. Odds are you get snow. .
  5. Numerous 3-7” reports around DSM now...and still snowing. .
  6. The main wildfire from yesterday, near Hillsboro IL, burned ~10,000 acres and traveled ~8 miles. .
  7. First snow of the season across IA/NW IL/SW WI this morning. Reports of a dusting to 1.5” in DSM area to CID. GFS had been showing that there would be snow with this wave for several days now, while other guidance either backed off days ago or never really supported it. .
  8. Most significant fire today is near Hillsboro, IL. It has been ongoing for several hours now.
  9. That area is wind farm. Looks like only one showing up right now in immediate area is well NNW of Morris. .
  10. Based on satellite and radar. ILX has posted info regarding a few as well. Up to at least 7 now. .
  11. At least 5 wildfires in NW IN and C IL so far. .
  12. Yea, it has been interesting to watch the fluctuations. Winds increased earlier this morning, with gusts to 29KT. Then ceilings lowered and a few showers moved in, and winds died with only 10-15KT gusts. Since then with more sun, it’s not gusting to 39KT with some BLDU. .
  13. na, this thread is fine. just the rando ohio folk being of issue. probably because they already know their winter is doomed, per usual. .
  14. One of the fires yesterday near the S IL town of Equality (Gallatin Co), burned ~250 acres.
  15. That first one looks like a snow version of the derecho. .
  16. Numerous wildfires ongoing across Northern and Central Illinois this afternoon. I've counted at least 12 thus far.
  17. there's no enforcement on the policy though.
  18. people have to actually wear masks in order for that to possibly happen.
  19. you should have been in china or italy when they were on a real lockdown. you might not have made it. .
  20. dexamethasone...need me some of that. .
  21. disappointed this thread has so few posts. .
  22. many sub-forums had a thread like this. however, this particular thread has been much more tame compared to those, when they were shut down. like I said in another thread, no one is forcing you to open this thread and read/post. .
