From a snow perspective, I just want to see at least a brief period of rippage before the sun sets later Saturday.  Would love a warning criteria snow event, but that isn't in the cards with this 1-2 punch system.  If we can get an inch or two of sleet, and then add an inch or two of snow then that would make it look pretty wintry to be sure.  

I'd gladly shovel this QPF down here your way so something constructive could be done with it instead of making frozen adobe lol

if that band gets hung up over IND the next 36 hours the crest on the Wabash may be interesting..03z RAP hinting 

 

 

Been watching that too.  A lot of it's tributaries have already gotten over an inch in the last 4-6 hours and the fire hose in SW MO is still pumping impulses NE.  Ive got over an inch in my tippy bucket already.

Lakeshore Hazard Message
National Weather Service Chicago IL
938 PM CST Thu Jan 9 2020

ILZ006-014-INZ001-002-101145-
/O.CON.KLOT.LS.W.0001.200111T0600Z-200112T1200Z/
Lake IL-Cook-Lake IN-Porter-
938 PM CST Thu Jan 9 2020

...LAKESHORE FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT FRIDAY
NIGHT TO 6 AM CST SUNDAY...

* WHAT...Significant lakeshore flooding is expected. Strong north
  to northeast winds gusting up to 40 to 50 mph will build waves
  to 12 to 18 feet with occasional waves up to 23 feet.

* WHERE...The shoreline areas of Cook and Lake Counties in
  Illinois and Lake and Porter Counties in Indiana.

* WHEN...Late Friday night through late Saturday night.

* IMPACTS...The winds and large battering waves combined with
  near record high lake levels could exacerbate already
  significant beach and shoreline erosion sustained in the past
  several months. Vulnerable structures along the shore may be
  heavily damaged. In addition, flood prone paths and roads
  along the lake will be susceptible to lengthy closures due to
  the expected long duration of high winds and waves.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Lakeshore Flood Warning means that flooding is occurring or
imminent along the lake. Residents on or near the shore in the
warned area should be alert for rising water...and take
appropriate action to protect life and property.

Had a break in the glacier water but radar says look out.  I always take model QPF with a couple grains of salt but radar trends are concerning.  Especially when the local NWS says the biblical rain is still 24 hrs away.  Need this to shift north or south, don't care.  When I start pooling water this fast on my property it's never good. Even last June it took 120hrs to get 6 inches. If we get another 4-5 as forecasted Fri. and Sat. this may be the worst I've seen it since moving here 7 years ago, at least locally.

Euro shitting the bed is lol

Back end 1-3 looking more likely here now, gonna be another 6z jobber tho

Kinda sad to watch another potential 20+ big dog evaporate even if it wasn't for me

The Euro has been doing this quite frequently for the past two seasons. Amps systems too far NW. And then weakens and shears them a to the south east as they approach. Rep is overblown.

It sure feels that way, reflexive distaste of the seasonal trends line of thinking at this point in the game but I'm def itching for the days when things would actually wrap up
