    1.8" was indeed the final storm total at ORD. 0.8" at MDW and 1.5" at RFD.

    Total of 1.8” at ORD as of noon, which will likely be the final storm total. Eyeballing ~1.5-2” here at home .

    The first widespread event of the season is on tap for tonight and Sunday, across a decent chunk of the sub-forum. Guidance has trended towards slightly better phasing between the southern trough/wave coming out of the Plains and a northern trough/wave along the Canada/Northern Plains border. Looks like a widespread 1-3” event. .

    Wednesday and Thursday featured top notch weather around here for a week before Thanksgiving, with both days featuring highs in the mid-60's and ample sun. We've reached the point where there's an abnormal amount of foliage still lingering, some of which is still green. Even with the cool down coming for a period of time after Thanksgiving, it's looking likely we'll be still carrying some foliage, some green, on into early December.

    just a modest cool down, eh? and only for next week you say, huh? gonna start off the season with two L’s. hate to see it.

    I’m guessing it’s some sort of burn at one of the large preserves around there. There were so many burns going on at local preserves today that there was a layer of smoke during the afternoon. It was significant enough to put it in OBS here at ORD for a while.

    3.6 magnitude earthquake near I-80 in North-Central Illinois earlier this morning. .

    Noticed a few bees and mosquitos around here last week. .

    That’s likely a bit too early, but after that quite possibly.
  10. Chicago Storm
    Maybe down south at some point. Definitely not this upcoming week, though.

    Partially an example as to why it's not wise to take any given teleconnection at face value based off one of the plots.
  12. Chicago Storm
    doin’ pretty good around these parts at least.
  13. Chicago Storm
    there is nothing great about that place, that’s for sure. .

    Solid agreement on deep toughing returning to the West Coast much of next week, as we see a bit of a shake up in the large scale pattern across North America and vicinity. This will lead to another period of very mild temperatures across the sub-forum.

    Not surprisingly, these squalls are fairly convective… .
  22. Chicago Storm
    You should later, when that lake enhanced pivot moves through. May see a corridor of 1-3" with it.
  23. Chicago Storm
    ORD on the board with 0.1” thus far today. Already tied for the 2nd snowiest Halloween on record. .

    The first real-deal flake potential of the season around here may be on the horizon for Halloween. Guidance is in agreement as of now for a potent disturbance to move through, bringing a squally/showery set-up.
