Up to -1F here... Liking that warm air. Need to wash the car asap.

I still have a pile of boxes from Christmas that need to be tossed ...been sitting in the garage. People buy my kids anymore toys and they are getting tossed in the garbage :) God i hate toys. You'll know what I mean when you wake up in the middle of the nite and walk down the hallway and step on some toy car and almost break your neck!

As of now, looks great for you and a glancing blow at best here. Of course much can change for the better or worse. Whats your snowdepth? And any idea how much water is in it?

*****

First sub-zero morning officially of the winter, temp -1F at DTW and dropping, wind chills nearing -20F. Actually first subzero morning since Feb 2009. We tend to like to stay overcast on the coldest nights lol.

Settled to about 12" after peaking at 15". Have no idea what the water content is. Definitely not a glacier like some people have been describing theirs. Still fairly loose and powderly. Not water laden.

Rockford, IL hit -20 this morning...kind of lost in the shuffle, as most of the Chicago-area "only" got down to -5 to -10.

This is actually the 2nd coldest temperature ever recorded in Rockford so late in the season...very impressive!

Why you posted a 240hr map of the Euro.

You've been around here long enough to know model watching is pretty popular. I'd say the vast majority of the members here engage in it frequently. In fact, if you go back throughout this thread, and many others, you'll find lots of images/discussion about the models. And this is not limited to the short range. So you can see why I'm surprised at your quizzical reaction.

I have 12 right now. Not too bad out there.

Same here but without the breeze it is not too bad. Keep the lake clouds away and tonight should get below 0. NWS has lowered the low to -4 vs the 3+ they did have.

High today looks to be 16 after a low of 0. The low may get clipped before midnight though as the dp is dropping like a rock and is already down to -13 with clear skies.

That system/front looks like a slow mover with several disturbances riding along it which screams ice to me. A number of the euro ensembles DO have it as well. Something to watch anyways.
