I was just coming back to edit with the exact totals. Had to go back and check, and I did not realize that each storm technically started late in the day on January 31st at Chicago. GHDI: ORD: 21.2", DTW: 10.3" GHDII: ORD: 19.3", DTW: 16.7" GHDIII:? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a student at Laurier then and the school pre emptively cancelled class and everyone was hyped. A mediocre 4-8" fell instead of the 12+ forecasted. That dry slot crushed the dreams of many haha Yup. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 To add on to my earlier post, there are several very large hits into Chicago on the EPS. Most members obviously have the better stuff south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frog Town Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I don't think the 12Z GFS and Euro could be any more on top of each other if they tried. Weird to see that alignment at this distance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowman33 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Both GHD events shifted north within the final 48 hours. Guess we'll see if third time's the charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure those were both much more dynamic systems with regards to their Surface Pressures. This is a different setup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWeatherPimp Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 One thing I just tweeted that I'll echo here. I'm hoping when the NWS issues headlines they keep it simple and just run a watch/eventual warning for the duration of wave 1/wave 2. No point in making things complicated when impacts will be felt from Wednesday through at least Thursday Night. But NWS IWX is already talking about possible headlines for the first wave followed by a second round of headlines for wave 2. That's overly complicated and confusing IMO. Just my two cents, not that it matters. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackstraw Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Hey all, been awhile, thought Id jump back into the fray as winter here has s####d so far. Except for the nickle dime half inch at a time 2 inch weenie pack from last weeks paltry clipperfest thats the only measurable snow so far. Plus the fact i got skunked with GHD I and semi skunked (comparatively) with GHD II I'm putting the Pagan Hexy Hex on the Chitowners for this 'possible' GHD III storm. Y'all have had yours so far. Hoping it buries the I-70 north crew from IL to OH for once. Been riding the Euro wagon with this one, think the GFS is too slow with the arctic death cold thats coming. Besides Im jonesing to get the dogs in the truck and go drift busting. Probably just jinxed it lol 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambana Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Wondering if a blizzard warning will be issued for someone? I know this isn’t a strong surface low, but the criteria will definitely be close. I’m really liking my position right now. Deciding tomorrow to burn 3 personal days for W-F. This could be my biggest snowfall since 2/13/07. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWeatherPimp Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 With the depth of the arctic air, I wouldn't be surprised to see freezing rain and temperatures in the middle to upper 20's. Ice should accrete quite efficiently wherever the band of freezing rain sets up. That combined with falling temps and strong winds Thursday Night and Friday will lead to a very dangerous combo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May not completely stop precipitating, but looks like there could be some relative downtime in some areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
