  1. I was gonna start this tomorrow. Threat is dead now. .
  2. NAM with continued trends of the season.
  3. Around average could be fairly easy to attain, given we’ve already had a few light events and will probably rack up a few more...and average is Like sustained winter potential being DOA, cold is probably forgone too...outside of one or two very brief shots possible in the next 10 days or so, due the the brief -EPO push. Other than that, it’ll likely stay around or above normal temp wise. .
  4. ORD finished with 2.6” Added a few tenths here, for a final of 2.2” .
  5. Pure LE finally ramping up now. You should be good for more snow for a while.
  6. Someone is snippy after finally getting their first grass-covering snowfall of the season. Probably differing ratios, per usual. Started off as sleet/snow pellets here for a while originally, which didn't help.
  7. ORD is up to 2.0" thus far. Overall ratio of 18:1 as well, given 0.12" liquid equiv. Highest ratios we've seen in eons. Already a top 5 event on the season.
  8. No point in discussing, unless you're in MN/WI/MI.
  9. p sad. Per TORD velo, LES band extends from UGN to Schaumburg to Lisle currently. Too bad it's weak.
  10. Down to flurries here, and unlikely to see much more. 2.0” will be the final total. .
  11. 1.7” here. Shall see if we add anything from LE. .
  12. ARW/NMM/NSSL are all onboard with good LES somewhere in the area as well. ARW below... .
  13. Following the HRRR, the RGEM is also going big on the LES... .
  14. First snow of the event finally started about an hour ago. Actually started as sleet, but since changed to snow. Solid dusting so far.
  15. 0z HRRR is about as good as it gets on this side of the lake, for lake effect snow duration/quality. Obviously a bit of synoptic snow in the totals below, but most of it is LES. Also, LES is still ongoing, with a re-newed push incoming at the end of the run.
  16. Lake enhancement into the NE. Illinois already...Cook/DuPage/Will Co's.
  17. Light precip is expected to fill in this evening and tonight. That initial push of precip was always going to provide to most organized/heavier snows.
  18. It's actually not terrible. 1-3" area wide at end of most recent run, and still more synoptic and LES to go. Would probably end up 2-5" most of the area.
  19. We've seen this the past few storm systems...For some reason it is very late in picking up realistic amounts. I'm guess that will be the case once again.
  20. Continuing the trend, the RGEM bumped SE yet again. Drawing closer to finally chalking up an Alek bust high.
