  1. Looks like the main axis will end up with widespread totals in the 3-6" range, with isolated 6"+ totals.
  2. Haven’t been home for this one yet, but word is 1.5” there as of a bit ago. Has been snowing nicely from MBY to ORD corridor for a while now. .
  3. Widespread TSSN in NW. IA currently. A couple of 3-4" reports in that area a bit ago as well.
  4. Cooling and a flip to snow is occurring rapidly. DBQ down to 33 and FEP 32. Snow is now moving into the NW and W suburbs. The HRRR can be fully tossed.
  5. With the exception of the NAM, all 12z guidance shifted south. Getting closer to a historic and record breaking event being a lock around here. .
  6. I'm pulling for this one to shift south...I'm always in for historic/record events. As of now, looks like agreement on 6"+ getting into the northern tier across N. IL.
  7. First 80F temp of the year at ORD today.
  8. Yesterday was one of the warmer Easter's on record for Chicago... 85 - 4/10/1977 83 - 4/11/1971 82 - 4/18/1976 82 - 4/21/1946 82 - 4/13/1941 81 - 4/10/1955 81 - 3/27/1910 79 - 4/20/2014 79 - 3/30/1986 79 - 4/17/1927 79 - 4/12/1935 78 - 4/19/1987 78 - 4/10/1887 77 - 4/21/2019 76 - 4/4/2010 76 - 3/26/1989
  9. Yea, they were behind the ball on that one. Actually looks standard slight risk worthy as of now.
  10. Didn't happen, and not too surprising.
  11. Looks like a highly conditional threat across NE. IA/S. WI/N. IL this afternoon and evening int the vicinity of the warm front and triple point. The big issue looks to be a strong cap in place, and fairly weak forcing that might not be enough to overcome the capping. If we can get activity to go though, there's definitely a tor risk given the environment in place.
  12. ORD added a last minute 0.1”, for a final total of 5.4” That tied the biggest calendar day snow for this late in the season. .
  13. Added an additional 0.4” here, for a final total of 7.5” here. .
  14. Up to 7.1” here now. Likely will be the final total with intensity fading with time.
