Hoosier Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Strange as it may seem, tonight/early Wed with S/SE flow may prove to be the better icing setup than late week in the core of Chicago... simply because the flow tonight will have a very minimal onshore component. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevlon62 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Now 6-12" in the P&C far NW McHenry County. Good to see double digits in play. Spare flurry or two in Woodstock.

madwx Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 to highlight how quick hitting this will be in the end(at least north of the WI/IL border) the back end of the snow is already approaching I35 in Iowa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary67 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Not started yet. Will go 4" imby. The spirit of Jerry Taft lives on. Check that started snowing and is moderate already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natester Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Wouldn't be surprised if we stayed all snow here like the HRRR has depicted based on trends on radar trends, although wouldn't rule out some sleet here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Up to 3.9" here, 1.7" last hour. There is no mix approaching highway 30 (Cedar Rapids), so we should easily go past 6". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Just about the entire precip shield in IA/IL is snow. The only area of mix is along the very southern edge of the precip shield, in W IL and S IA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 This is awesome. Our heavy snow (1.5+"/hr) with small flakes just turned into cotton balls. Radar says no mix anywhere close. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McHenrySnow Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Started here about 5 minutes ago or so. Pouring tiny flakes. Wind really picked up, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchaumburgStormer Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 HRRR seems to have a pretty good lock on things thus far. Another 4-6 hours of +/- 1"/hr rates would be right on target for mby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Snow started here about 45mins ago. Has been solid SN for the duration thus far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
