jiksports Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I live on the South Side of Chicago right by the lake. I am not sure what to expect over the next 24 hours except frequent p-type changes. With the HRRR switching the area between rain and snow so often, I doubt we end up with more than a couple inches on the ground after all is said and done.

Thundersnow12 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 21z HRRR has 3-5" by 12z along/north of I-80 to the border and along/west of about I-294 including ORD. More of the 5" spots are north of 88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the HRRR switching the area between rain and snow so often, I doubt we end up with more than a couple inches on the ground after all is said and done. Sounds realistic for your locale. I even expect a few precip type issues and accumulation struggles up here for the first half of the storm. That's a very large body of warm water to our east and we've seen what it can do before. We'll see soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for bringing that over from the other thread. Notice 1940 on the list...that was a strong Nino and the last time that Chicago finished snowier than average in a strong Nino. If this storm pans out, they will have a leg up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Meh, it's the warmest model out there. I'd be really surprised if that pans out...hanging on to rain that long, especially with decent precip rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I think it is a bad move, low end warning criteria, first storm of the year, high impact/short duration. The other issue is the secondary band that forms and moves over Detroit that all models are honing in on, that won't affect GRR's CWA outside of a couple counties, so DTX should have gone warning while GRR went advisory even if it looked silly. Interesting to note that all of the 18z models ticked SE. In fact, the GFS and RGEM not only keep us all snow, but sets the initial frontogenesis band overhead (versus NW of here).

SchaumburgStormer Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 No real accumulation to speak of, but the minimal amount of flakes which have fallen so far have not melted. Looking like sugar is spilled all over the driveway, just enough to sparkle in the streetlight. No rain or ground temp issues here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
