Allsnow Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I can confirm the Naperville report. I just drove from Aurora to Lisle and it's going gangbusters here. Crews plowed the parking lot an hour ago and already 1.5 inches has accumulated. Pure fluff. Pretty amazing snow globe. Thanks for confirming. He is plowing saying these big fat flakes and you see it accumulating. Close to 4 when I talk to him and ripping. He was shock it lasted this long, normally it moves in and out in Naperville. As they are a bit sw from the lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Up to 11.9" Missed out on the main bands, but still managed 2.4" of LES since 1AM. Should finish in the 12-13" range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppsRunner Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Heaviest snow of the storm falling now. Roads are absolutely terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewers Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 LE up here has been very mediocre this morning. Winds on the other hand are cranking. Easily pushing 30kts down here along the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohioamy Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 KILN pulled the trigger on a Winter Storm Warning for the Southern counties (because of lesser criteria). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuanis Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Another 2.9" over the past 12 hours, bringing the event total here to 16.7" in Libertyville. Huge lake flakes now, borderline +SN. How much can we add today? I'm 5 miles as the crow flies from the lakeshore, on the southeast side of Libertyville. Cam is still up and running, although it's half blocked by accumulated snow now: http://ustre.am/16Txc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwohweather Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Flakes may be too fine to see but you can see how much has already accumulated and how much is blowing and drifting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they are a bit sw from the lake That's good to see that report because that's what I'm estimating here in near I-88 Naperville Wheaton border. Still solid SN right now but perhaps not quite as heavy when I went outside when it was easily +SN. The eastern half of DuPage is getting slammed right now.
