  1. Today has no real threat overall, other than for a few hailers. Just about all activity will be post anafront.
  2. and I have not heard that they’ve actually done that to any business that hasn’t fully complied during this whole thing (most have complied though). so I’m not sure it will happen now. .
  3. have heard of several restaurants in the suburbs that will refuse the order to close indoor dining starting friday. .
  4. this. i have been up into different parts of wisconsin several times since the spring, and each time is no different...very few are following the restrictions and guidelines. evers has his back against the wall, and there’s nothing he can do, given a large portion of the population wants him recalled there due to many reasons...one of which being how he has tried to put guidelines and restrictions in place. .
  5. again, there never was a lockdown...just restrictions. and the main problem now is the changing weather. i have seen no changes in regards to anyone’s habits...there has and continues to be a large amount that follow the restrictions and a large amount that do not. .
  6. i don’t think some of you understand what a lockdown really is. no one in this country has had a lockdown. .
  7. 1.2” at DSM. Bit further south, and it would have been game. .
  8. That report was at the NWS office, so legit. .
  9. Think you’re being overly negative. Cooling is occurring, with most sites dropping several degrees. Odds are you get snow. .
  10. Numerous 3-7” reports around DSM now...and still snowing. .
  11. The main wildfire from yesterday, near Hillsboro IL, burned ~10,000 acres and traveled ~8 miles. .
  12. 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. .
  13. Most significant fire today is near Hillsboro, IL. It has been ongoing for several hours now.
  14. That area is wind farm. Looks like only one showing up right now in immediate area is well NNW of Morris. .
  15. Based on satellite and radar. ILX has posted info regarding a few as well. Up to at least 7 now. .
  16. At least 5 wildfires in NW IN and C IL so far. .
  17. 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. .
  18. na, this thread is fine. just the rando ohio folk being of issue. probably because they already know their winter is doomed, per usual. .
  19. One of the fires yesterday near the S IL town of Equality (Gallatin Co), burned ~250 acres.
  20. That first one looks like a snow version of the derecho. .
  21. Numerous wildfires ongoing across Northern and Central Illinois this afternoon. I've counted at least 12 thus far.
