  1. Only made it down to -5 last night. S wind picked up earlier than expected and halted any temp drop. Already up to 11 on our way to around 28 today.
  2. already about to dip below 0 here, a run at the negative double digits looks possible, will be a good test of how good of a radiator my property is on clear calm nights
  3. Imagine finally retiring and getting to do whatever you want and a bunch of weenies on a weather board come bothering you to start writing forecasts and discussions again
  4. snow squall warning for the southern suburbs of Chicago
  5. Nasty morning outside. Not much accumulation but major blowing and drifting on N/S country roads and temps falling to 12 at this moment
  6. Blizzard warnings going up for SE Minnesota, should be a pretty nasty night and morning for the sub
  7. the AGW trend is more amplified extremes, you'll have multi year super wet stretches and multi year major droughts. Though the wet will tend to win out overall
  8. you really manifested it into existence. Also seasonal/AGW trends die hard
  9. made it below 0 at the house but not at MSN, only made it down to 0 there. Will have to try again later in the week
  10. will have our first subzero night of the season here, already down to 3 with clear skies and almost calm winds
  11. I'm always impressed how full sun in January can melt snow on untreated roads even with temps in the teens.
  12. Ended with .8” at the airport and .5” ish here. Blowing made it nearly impossible to measure
  13. 2012 was really dry during the summer but had some wet months in the fall and early spring. 2005 was also drier than 2012 around here
  14. We had our 15th warmest December in MSN. For the year overall it was: 10th warmest 12th driest (1976 was the last time we had a year this dry) 56th least snowiest
  15. looks cold to start. Multiple arctic air pushes in the first week. If the long range models and teleconnections are to be believe, if you want winter this is your month to get it
  16. honing in on my 1" call and I'm excited
  17. the WWA in wisconsin is for the freezing drizzle/rain threat today, not for tomorrow's storm
  18. first and final call of 1" here. look to just be on the northern fringes of this. Congrats to all to the south on significant snows
  19. GFS agrees with the NAM, wagons south
  20. Almost to the point we’ll have to start worrying about who will be measuring the snow at ORD
  21. 12z NAM is amped and NW at long range. Feels good to have at least some sense of normalcy around here
  22. 3" here. slight bit of freezing drizzle at the end
  23. Snow starting here. Small flakes for now
  24. Got 2.5” last night. About half of that melted away after the storm today. Expecting a few more inches tomorrow which will have a bit more staying power with colder air funneling in
  25. https://www.weather.gov/lot/observation_history Here's your answer, moved to Midway in 1942 and O'Hare in 1980. Puts those really warm temps back in the first half of the 20th century in much better perspective
