Chicago WX Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 3 minutes ago, Hoosier said: The 10"+ coverage looks phenomenal as well... possibly at least 90-95% of the state. Kinda crazy. Hell, the coverage of 10"+ snow depth at the end of this storm, across the entire region, has to rival some of the great winters of the past. Assuming this verifies and all... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostfern Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I can see the thumb getting good totals despite being further north. Lake Huron influence will amp up the flake size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta T is still pretty good with sufficient inversion heights, though it should be diminished in intensity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am convinced you could get 2 feet only on your property and still find a reason to complain. All of the guidance has bumped NW starting overnight. The NAM was throwing more precip NW spreading out the gradient, but it wasn’t an outlier in terms of the evolution. If it had a Madison special, then it’s an outlier. A 20 mile difference in snow is within a reasonable margin of error is in line with other guidance. I’ll keep note of your quality posts from here on out, bud. We easily have the least amount of snow in northern Illinois and yes, that’s frustrating. I’d love to get a good storm, but that’s not happening and I don’t need to pretend otherwise to make you happy. Cary routinely makes posts similar to mine yet no one bats an eye (no shade to Cary personally, we get along great). Enjoy your weather without trying to make other people feel like crap. You might not like that I’m not easily aboard the hype train but I don’t like the personal digs you make at me and others. To each their own I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McHenrySnow Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I am, seriously, very happy for a lot of you in Indiana and especially western Kentucky who have had absolute trash winters the past few seasons.

Has a lot to do with what is going on aloft...How far north and when exactly the wave goes negative tilt has the say in if this ends up NW or SE. in addition to the amount of ridging ahead.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radtechwxman Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 This system is fascinating. Pretty rare to see big snows very far west from sfc low track. Upper level low nearby and good moisture feed into massive cold sector really driving a nice spread the wealth snowstorm. Hoping next storm can be more nw than what gfs/euro show currently. Would be awesome to close out this cold snowy pattern with two nearly back to back snowstorms. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fridays end of the day climate report had 13 they had an obs yesterday showing 15 (and 1 inch that hour) and they got more after that This morning climate report for Saturday has them back down to 13????? the record I believe is 29 back in 1979 with luck with the LES parking over them they may have 22-24 inches going into midweek I assume the correct current number is higher then 13?? Snow depth as of 6PM will be 15" at ORD. (14.5" actual amount) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sciascia Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 LOT’s most recent images highlighting the storm: It won’t happen, but it would be insane to have an 18hr period of 1-2 inches-per-hour as somewhat depicted on that pictograph.

miller.b.time Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 When I moved to Indy from central VA five years ago, I kind of figured I wouldn’t be seeing any more blockbusters like we’d occasionally get out there. And yet here I am, enjoying a cocktail, getting ready to eat a steak, and preparing for a legit big snow. This is the life. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
