Prolly a max near Evanston (4-6”?) but there should be LES in most of Lake/Cook, IL. The aforementioned jet streak may even give it a relative boost towards evening. Will add Kenosha/Racine Co., WI, to this. Somewhere in there where synoptic snow overlaps/seeds LES may be near warning criteria imo. Even ORD could do well later on due to enhanced convergence along the shore north of Evanston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-L-E-K Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 maybe it's the extra seeding from the disturbance starting to move overhead but returns have picked up nicely, should be solid downtown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically if you add snow from aloft to the convective lake plume, you get more widespread/heavier snow (temps in the lake plume important). Could argue the approaching shortwave and jet maxes are boosting the lift, but there’s also an increase in low level flow and resultant convergence w boundary layer flow turning from the N/NE. DGZ is pretty much on the ground so it’s a perfect setup to overperform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Picked up an enexpected 0.6" of sugar snow last evening. Gives a fresh sparkle to the snowpack and keeps the piles clean and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just about to ask my roomies what it looked like at our apartment (Wicker Park). WWA would seem like a good idea at this point even if solely based on impact—I just drove to UIC from the Loop and it was a little dicey. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
