Hello everyone, apparently there has been 10" of snowfall in Winthrop Harbor (a northern suburb of Chicago)!

We're so due for a legit winter. I hope we get a White Christmas. Just a solid 3" - 5" event that sticks around for a bit. That's all I'm asking.

Pouring huge flakes now with over 2" on the board in Wolf! Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

I guess the winds were supposed to be more NNE yesterday vs NE which would’ve put the band over the city.

Started and OBS thread, hopefully many of us get the opportunity to post in it this afternoon and evening.

We are getting a good snow shower in West Knoxville.

Ended up with about 6” of lake effect fluff here in Libertyville. Better not be our best storm of the winter

It started snowing yesterday evening, and I had around 1/2 inch overnight. Currently light snow and 28. Waiting on the slug of moisture with the S/W in Kentucky to rotate through this afternoon.

I like the fact, however, we finally have Roundy in our corner.

And so it begins LOL

Just like anything else weather wise, the further out you go, the less meaningful they are.

On my page you can plot the daily values for most of the indices anybody cares about. RONI is below -1.2 now. https://weathersigma.com/sst?i=RONI

I hope it's right, but honestly didn't believe it when Snowman posted it and don't believe that one. Models just don't forecast the MJO well.

2-3” across the metro id say

Maybe so. Getting close to a thread worthy event maybe short-term forecast and obs combo thread. Might not need two for this one though. Thank you for all the ground truth! Fun to see how everyone is doing and I find it useful for work too. Indeed another short wave is coming in behind for this afternoon. Bubbly satellite loops show it coming out of Kentucky. Plateau and Mountains should continue going. Maybe some Great Valley North. I don't expect much in Chatty. Still I'm happy for y'all and will enjoy it vicariously.

What has been the approximate range of total snowfall for Chicago, itself, so far? I know there’s a last gasp now near the shoreline.

23 currently with moderate snow. 2 inches so far with untreated roads covered. The snow has dramatically picked up in the past fifteen minutes.

Ya that was a good winter here…Shuttle Meadow very pretty/picturesque area too-with ROGERS Orchards being right there.

Chilly damp morning. Guess I'm not mowing the grass today ir any time soon. :/

This is a pretty good documentary on the Edmond Fitzgerald

Might be a good burst of snow tonight in VT and northern NH. Hoping for a good week when I head up to SLK tomorrow.

The good ship and crew was a bone to be chewed when the gales of November came early.

Last gasp of this event. Very heavy rates downtown, roads covered again

Obs thread? .
