Nevermind, I just looked it up. Chicago wins hands down. Chicago had 68 and change while Caribou only had 36.

In '67 I was living in Caribou, Maine. Wonder who had more snow that year?

Was able to make it out to the overpass this evening for the sunset. It was not life-threatening cold anymore but I still got frozen toes and fingers simply for being out there for over an hour at a stretch. Some nice alto-cumulus pre-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 28mm... Close to actual sunset there was some, just a tiny bit of wildfire colors on the horizon. Taken with the 100mm and cropped in camera...

lol, should I start a thread for when the last of the snow leaves my backyard?

Just in case this is the last one. A nice post-sunset this evening. What it looked like pre-sunset. Taken with the 24-70mm at 24mm... Post sunset reds. Taken with the 24-70mm at 57mm... Cheers!

It felt cold outside for the sunset. Did it look cold?

Were all these clouds forecast?

Could you imagine being an alligator and going, "What is this sh*t?".

Coldest air of the season probably starting tonight. Celebrated by taking a few sunset pics. About lost a little skin on the fingers getting these, but hey, the things we do for our hobbies. The yellows. Taken with the 24-70mm at 70mm... The orange. Taken with the 24-70mm at 57mm... What little reds there were. also shows the snow showers in the area at the same time. Taken with the 24-70mm at 45mm...

^ impressive that there is a 36 to 40 degree difference between Minneapolis and Indianapolis. Rooting here for the cloud cover to stick around and keep our temps up.

Once again. location, location and location. Yes it rained here for a bit overnight but it did switch over to snow early morning and made a slick commute. I was worried about a flash freeze after this slush-fest but with ORD -LAF- IND tabs open, I only see a slow downturn of temps and dews. Thank goodness.

Ouch. Gale warnings with extreme temps. That is adding insult to injury.

any new updates?

Sometimes living in town insulates a person from some real stuff. This afternoon I headed out with the camera to the countryside and found the blowing snow still causing a few minor headaches here and there. Coming over a rise you would come upon spots like this still fairly often...

That is not right. KIND has had more snow than ORD. Take the rest of the snows, please. After the snows, now we get to look at dirty snow for awhile. Not a good look...
