Happy that I'm a lazy government employee that gets to sit at home today (and get paid to boot) and watch this all unfold. :D

The areal coverage that this event has and is hitting will be one for the books. 

Government employee here too, but I had to come into the office today. I already told the Director that I'll be working from home tomorrow. Yep, this is the one that most of the sub forum has been wishing for, excluding Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota, although they all got in on winter while all we saw was bare ground.

Also, anyone else here on NWSChat? I got booted awhile ago, and can't get back in. Outage?

Not even a flurry now—I knew there’d be some tight gradients across Cook and possibly within the city, but damn. Birds have even started chirping outside of my office because they think the coast is clear now

I have a few flurries here at Western and Devon, but a mile north of me the band is absolutely ripping. It seems to be tipping south every so slightly.

Don't feel bad.  Almost looked like there was an attempt at some filtered sun here earlier.  Will be nice when the main synoptic slug arrives.

I’m currently alone on a Harlem bus at 1:20 in the afternoon. Snow is heavy, visibility is terrible. My mask was frozen, as was the front of the hoodie beneath my open coat.

The combo of low temps & heavy snow make this the worst conditions I’ve ever personally encountered.

Yeah NWSChat is down, won’t let me log in either. Keeps trying and failing.

I know I’m being greedy at this point but I just can’t help it. Probably could’ve gotten away with driving to and from work today!
