  1. At this point we’re definitely not looking at sig ice in the suburbs, and quite likely not in NE IL either. The HRRR struggles with the effects of lake ice and tries to alter the environment. It’s not realistic. .
  2. i’m not saying it’ll be right, but that is not a warm look at that time. things are up and down, but as a whole overall are colder/cooler as depicted currently, with 3 different patterns through mid march.
  3. you’ve had some rough calls this season, might be best to sit the rest out. .
  4. Peak wind gusts Friday afternoon-early Saturday morning of 47MPH ORD, 49MPH MDW and 53MPH RFD (Including snow squall). Peak wind gusts today of 47MPH ORD, 45MPH MDW and 49MPH RFD.
  5. 3.4" of snow on the season, and running -21.9" for the season.
  6. You want to see rapid snow melt...Check out the vis sat loop since sunrise today across the region and increase loop speed a bit.
  7. Snow squall weakened prior to hitting here at home, but still came through with a period of 3/4SM visibility and ~45MPH wind gusts.
  8. 75MPH wind gust at MWC (Milwaukee-Timmerman Airport).
  9. It looks like these snow squalls are being aided by a plume of good lapse rates.
  10. +TSSN with the frontal snow squalls coming through the LSE CWA. .
  11. Final snowfall totals of 2.9” at ORD and 3.8” at MDW. .
  12. Final snowfall total here at home of 3.5"
  13. Death band has hit here... Vis down to about 1/8SM with +SN.
  14. Good burst of snow now, with 1/4SM vis and +SN here at home. Few tenths of accumulation so far.
  15. hey, not as far of a drive...might make it on time.
