    Tonight was always looking like the coldest of the period, for both wind chills and actual temps. So, we’ll see how it goes.
  2. Chicago Storm
    The alignment hasn’t really been in their favor overall.
  3. Chicago Storm
    the thing is, it’s not your “shitty winter” because you don’t live there in the winter.
  4. Chicago Storm
    oh, and rip lions. i was pulling for them.
  5. Chicago Storm
    it’s going to be a paste/cement job too.
  6. Chicago Storm
    snowbirds are the worst.
  7. Chicago Storm
    Snow depth is a real 0" now.
  8. Chicago Storm
    you're still paying for the derecho.

    I had no idea that DTX (Or any office) had a budget to pay for anyone to go out to a given site and measure snow for them. But, looking at the listing on that website, it appears common, surprisingly. That now makes sense why DTW would report a T of snow depth, while we don't here at ORD.
  10. Chicago Storm
    Snow depth is now down to 0" at here at ORD.

    I've been really hesitant to talk about the upcoming potential pattern change. For one, the can has been getting kicked down the road as to when when it will occur. But also, when it does occur, there like three different directions it may go.

    The mystery continues...
  13. Chicago Storm
    They are not supposed to report a T in OBS based on FAA standards. It is either 0" or 1" SD, with no in-between. The only thing I can think of is that DTX is requesting it as supplemental information. @Stebo may be able to chime in on that one. Here at ORD we do not have any sort of agreement like that, however.
  14. Chicago Storm
    That is correct.

    For this section note that a T of snow depth is no longer recorded, and hasn't been for a very long time. Anything <0.5" is recorded as 0" snow depth. So, those stats can be misleading.
  16. Chicago Storm
    the standards have sure fallen.
  17. Chicago Storm
    0.7" of snow at ORD this morning with the clipper that moved through. The seasonal snowfall total is up to 8.9".
  18. Chicago Storm
    0.2" of snow at ORD on Friday night with snow showers and snow squalls that moved through the area. Another 0.3" of snow at ORD last night/this morning with the clipper that moved through. The seasonal snowfall total is up to 8.2".
  19. Chicago Storm
    there hasn't been a quality pattern to reload.
  20. Chicago Storm
    It's a vort in the UL flow.
  21. Chicago Storm
    Final event snowfall total of 2.0" at ORD. Seasonal snowfall total is up to 7.7" now.
  22. Chicago Storm
    last thread worked out pretty well for the southern 1/3rd of the sub-forum. a solid threading.
  23. Chicago Storm
    because some of you really need it.
  24. Chicago Storm
    the nickel and dimers are preventing that possibility.
  25. Chicago Storm
    pull it together, ya'll. you'll survive, it's just snow.
