    Added another 1.0" at ORD from 0-6z, for a final storm total of 2.0".
  2. Chicago Storm
    Easily the best looking LE on the western half of the lake this winter. .

    Toss. Main convergence axis is passing downtown right now, and has been steadily shifting east. It's already fully offshore from NE Cook Co up through SE WI.

    An additional 0.6" of SN/GS/PL accumulation from 18-0z at ORD, for a storm total of 1.0" thus far.

    Lake enhancement starting to get going across SE WI and NE IL. .

    Got in to ORD about a half hour ago to find not only has PL dominated precip type, but the RA being reported was actually FZRA for the most part. There's a glaze of ice on colder/elevated surfaces, and several tenths of PL accumulation. During the morning/early afternoon before I got in, precip type has been a mix of SN/PL/FZRA/RA. Since getting in a bit ago, things have transitioned from PL/FZRA to PL to GS and now to -SN.

    ORD on the board with a SN/PL accumulation total of 0.4" as of noon.

    Have been flipping back and forth between RA and PL here at home since precip started earlier this morning. Solid dusting of PL.

    Peak wind gust of 55MPH at ORD, with the high winds last evening through this morning.

    something is going to happen between tonight and tomorrow night.

    That projected MJO at face value suggests the likely continuation of a mild/active pattern for many, with best cold/snow chances locked up north. However, with the expected continued evolution of the SPV, which will fight back re: pattern, we could be looking at quite an active gradient pattern that fluctuates. A gamblers pattern to the extreme. It's still off in the late February to early March time period, but it is something to watch.

    just gonna put this right here...

    There hasn't really been any pure LES on the SE WI/NE IL side of the lake this winter, and only a few events that have featured some sort of minor enhancement, though none of which actually really aided in producing additional accumulation.

    we welcome you. .

    not that it matters, but that's not a bowling ball.
  20. Chicago Storm

    the super bowl ending was a disappointment. .
