    some illinois folks would disagree.

    Nice cold front/OFB collision a bit ago in W TX…
  3. Chicago Storm
    And approximately the 1.5-2 weeks prior to that were good to great.
  4. Chicago Storm
    There have definitely been worse starts to spring.
  5. Chicago Storm
    Not really remotely close in most aspects. The biggest difference of all, is that was a wrapped-up/stronger SW-NW moving storm system.
  6. Chicago Storm
    Looking like an axis of 1-3” of snowfall into N IL and the northern two tiers of the NW LOT CWA for tomorrow morning/afternoon.
  7. Chicago Storm
    Looking increasingly likely that there could even be a DAB-2" of snowfall across portions of N IL as well, tonight into tomorrow morning.
  8. Chicago Storm
    Synoptic winds are not going to be that high.
  9. Chicago Storm
    Peak synoptic wind gusts yesterday/last night of 44MPH ORD, 47MPH MDW and 54MPH RFD. Peak convective shower wind gusts yesterday afternoon of 45MPH ORD, 47MPH MDW and 58MPH RFD.
  10. Chicago Storm
    Severe t’storm warning for portions of the metro. 72MPH wind gust at ARR recently.
  11. Chicago Storm
    Things look very supportive for squalls, lightning/thunder, graupel and higher wind gust potential.
  12. Chicago Storm
    Disturbance spinning down through IA..,
  13. Chicago Storm
    I wouldn’t go as far as to say that. Currently no real sign that the current PNA regime is going to change any time soon.

    I’ve been too uninterested to make an updated post in the spring thread, but another pattern change has occurred. This pattern will be heavily influenced by a -NAO, leading to a mean trough axis across the N Plains, Midwest, Lakes and Northeast.
  15. Chicago Storm
    Might be permanently, based on the heading it was taking.

    Going to put it out of its misery, after the coms issues it has had all day.

    So, so bad. Appears to have been on the ground 6 minutes prior to a warning being issued, with a clear cut CC sig. Took until nearly 10 minutes later for a confirmed tag. That’s as bad as it gets.

    Shall shift this to the new seasonal thread… As a few have pointed out, next week looks fairly mild overall, with this being a product of another pattern change. This new pattern change is already underway, with the effects of it being felt in the sub-forum starting Sunday, then continuing through all of next week, and possibly through the following weekend as well (Perhaps beyond too?). This pattern will feature a +AO/+NAO/+EPO/neutral PNA. This will lead to an overall mild period temp wise, and still a somewhat active pattern. Snow chances will obviously be low, but not zero, especially in MN/WI/MI. Beyond this there are signs of another pattern adjustment occurring around next weekend (19-20th) or into the following week.
  21. Chicago Storm
    Final event snowfall totals of 0.9” ORD, 1.6” MDW and 0.2” RFD.
  22. Chicago Storm
    Another view of the cycloneville tor...

    So the below did produce…
  24. Chicago Storm
    Well in that case I'll go with another 1-3"-er into portions of the LOT CWA.
  25. Chicago Storm
    I thought you were talking more up here. .
