Chicago WX Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Looks like the mix line is stalling out... or at least slowed its northward movement. Hate to be in the south end of the county. All pingers here. Doesn't feel too good on my bald head. I caught one in the eye too. I'm sure Hoosier is happy, because he hates me right now.

cyclone77 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Just measured 3.6". Still coming down decent but nothing like earlier. 3" in one hour is pretty crazy. As heavy as it snowed here it was nothing like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Seems odd. Nothing really in the area on the radar to support that. I'm guessing it's from cloud to cloud/intra-cloud lightning. IIRC the lightning network only detects cloud to ground strikes? Never heard any here but have been inside with space heaters running, so nothing was too close anyway.

Chicago WX Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Dual pol is such a cool tool. But it sucks when you're barely on the wrong side of the mix line. -FZRA at my place now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
