    The QLCS ended up hitting here at home between 11:45-11:50PM last night. Ended up with peak wind gusts of 60-65MPH. A weak MV also passed just about overhead as well and there were numerous others across the metro area/NE IL. If a bit more moisture/instability had bit in place, things could have been more fun. We likely would have seen numerous QLCS tornadoes in the area in that case, and a much more significant event region-wide.

    The very rare DU remark in the two most recent OBS out of ORD this morning. Not something you see very often, and something I can’t ever recall.

    51MPH officially on OBS. Makes sense that things are not uniform.
  5. Chicago Storm
    you're not following reports, are you. 71MPH at the CID airport control tower. widespread 60-80mph reports in e ia.

    counter-point: that weak looking stuff is still producing severe level winds/damaging, due to the environment it’s in.

    79'd at ORD today. MDW topped out at 80.
  8. Chicago Storm
    Trees are popping around here…

    Probably a bit shy, officially. MDW will probably do MDW things, though.

    heard it's the last until july there.

    Timing has improved a bit over the past day or so. So, there's a bit more interest once again locally. However, there's still a lot of questions regarding moisture quality/depth and instability.

    It's back-door/lake-enhanced front season...
  13. Chicago Storm
    High temp of 68 at ORD today. First 60+ day since Nov 19th (63) and the warmest day since Nov 4th (68).

    70’s are not “heat”. record breaking warmth, sure.
  15. Chicago Storm
    record breaking heat lol

    At this point, looks like a swing and a miss for anything overly interesting for this sub-forum.

    the non-michigan contingent thanks you.

    A whopping snowfall total of a T here at ORD with today's snowfall "event". The seasonal snowfall total remains at 14.8”.
  19. Chicago Storm
    Forgot to mention... Peak wind gust of 50MPH at ORD with the round of high winds on February 28th.
  20. Chicago Storm
    Peak wind gust of 43MPH at ORD with the round of high winds on Wednesday.

    The Euro has had its struggles, for whatever reason. Another example is this current system and snow. The GFS was on it for days, but it took a while for the Euro and other guidance to catch on.
  22. Chicago Storm
    Classic April snowfall out there today.
  23. Chicago Storm
    Correct, twice. Feb 12-13th and Nov 21st.
  24. Chicago Storm
    Na, he'll have his chances...unfortunately (for us).
  25. Chicago Storm
    It looks to stay continued up and down. I wouldn't say any lasting/consistent or noteworthy cold is on the horizon.
