12.6" here at 930pm

Congrats man!

[Chargers09]

Been sitting under some great banding for a while. Dendrites. Heavy rates. Wind whipped.

[Thunder Road]

Is the LES still taking shape, or is it stronger/weaker than projected?

Thanks.

 

Still taking shape.

[Thunder Road]

12.5" at Valpo as of 8:50 p.m.  Just 1.3" since 3:30 p.m.  Thanks, dryslot.  zzzzzzzz. (<- plz don't ban me)

[Thundersnow12]

ORD up to 16.0" 

[hm8]

UofM closed for snow for the first time since '78 (closed for cold last year too... Lucky me)

[Geos]

Only 0.3" in the last hour. 14.8" total.

 

ORD and MDW sound like they could both hit 18". 

[dmc76]

Over. Heaviest of the night right now.

[Thundersnow12]

Ah okay. I still don't know if I'm allowed to use the info. I could ask.

 

I doubt it. That's my guess. I was told to pretty much only given amounts at certain times etc 

[nwohweather]

Looks like maybe 2" more on the back end of this. Blizzard of '15 will be remembered

[SchaumburgStormer]

16.8" average out here in DKB

UofM closed for snow for the first time since '78 (closed for cold last year too... Lucky me)

 

UofM closed for GHD 2011 as well, if I recall...

[Whitelakeroy]

Great day. Great storm. Time for sleep!

[mjwise]

Surface low has gone sub-1000mb in the DAY-CMH corridor. Brief break for southern SEMI before trowel snow arrives.

[mjwise]

UofM closed for GHD 2011 as well, if I recall...

Nope.

[DaveNay]

Who ever thought that in the future we would have to clarify WHICH GHD blizzard was being talked about?!

[WestCoaster]

How is this storm ranking for some of you in terms of enjoyability?

[Brewers]

The lake band stretching from Milwaukee into Kenosha Counties might not move much until 6z.

[cyclone77]

Picked up another 0.9" of fluff.  Total at 15.1".  (Also 0.13" rain to start last evening).  Snow is pretty much over, just very light stuff now.  Amazing storm that FAR exceeded my expectations.  

[Chicago Storm]

The lake band stretching from Milwaukee into Kenosha Counties might not move much until 6z.

Some areas have been under it for about 2hrs now.

[Stebo]

How is this storm ranking for some of you in terms of enjoyability?

A+, amazing and 2 enthusiastic thumbs up.

[Chambana]

Glad to see parts of the sub forum got a winter saving storm. Unfortunately here in Champaign, we got dry slotted, and hung above freezing, ended with 3" of slop, which melted down to 2" already, north trend is always the way to go with these big dogs.

My winter snowfall total stands at 8" for the whole winter.

[Hoosier]

15.5" at ORD 

 

Barring something unexpected with lake activity, top 5 is out of reach but top 6 looks doable.

[weathergy]

I'm at 13.5" here in Taylor. Most snow I've seen in my life. DTW will likely surpass the storm on December 18-19,1929 with 13.8" and February 28-March 1, 1900 with 14.0" placing this storm at #4.

 

Next record to break is #3 March 4-5, 1900 with 16.1" which is still possible.

 

I doubt we'll touch December 1-2 1974 with 19.3"

 

So cheers for Detroit's #3 snowiest storm!

UofM closed for snow for the first time since '78 (closed for cold last year too... Lucky me)

Goes to show what kind of storm this is.

[Snowstorms]

Around 2.0" here in my area. Radar returns look amazing south of us. Currently some moderate snow atm.
