Yet there’s still snow on the ground. .

I grew up in Tampa and they’re hosting the Stadium Series game on Sunday. It may not get out of the mid 40’s. Then of course you see crazy stuff like this… https://x.com/flstormchasers_/status/2015854097153302774?s=46 .

I freaking love summer. .

I’m sure you are right. Definitely nothing record setting or even remotely close. I remember when I was in medical school in Washington DC we had one season where it hardly snowed at all and another where they had 2‘ over 48 hours. Similar experiences in NYC as well. Lots of boom or bust. .

Euro is purgatory. We can just pray that these turd dusters are enough to offset sublimation.

The best kind of wins .

I mean NYC metro got a nice hit. Nearly a foot in Central Park. Next weekends’ potential storm could be a hold-my-beer type step up from this last one. It’s a glorious east coast pattern. .

Yeah I didn’t think we’d do as well as we did overnight. It failed. I spoke way too soon. .

Pretty wild stuff. We’re still getting good rates here on the back end too. .

All the feels, half the clean up.

Clipper parade? .

Close to 2 inches in Naperville though we might cash in on a bit more lake enhancement based on simulated radar. .

Maybe a little over half an inch here. Might exceed the anticipated inch.

Seems quite a bit high for areas away from the lake. I don’t see anyone in DuPage county getting to 4 inches.

Starting to peter out for now in Naperville. Hopefully some lake enhancement for points east.

This might whiten the deck folks.

It just picked up a bit...keep singing.

I mean there's got to be something in this about saturating the column, dendritic growth zones, and whatnot. Hoping for some strong ratios. KLOT kind of eluded to quicker onset: Radar shows virga has overspread northern IL and northwest IN with very slow top down saturation noted as a closing "donut hole" on our WSR-88D. This top down saturation process should continue through the day with some light snow likely to eventually develop from west to east across the area this afternoon. It`s possible this process may be a tad quicker than progged in current pops, so may eventually need to tweak the timing up a bit. Initially, snow should be very small flake size which should be very slow to accumulate.

Sweet granular nothings in Naperville

I believe the GFS after its coup this weekend. Probably a perilous thing to do but we’ll see. .

Hrrr says cancel WWA

Western GL probably needs its own forum for commiserating during our tundra season. Also please don’t come here and kill the vibes. I already serve in that role. There can be only one. .

Southwest burbs away from the lake are gonna be a challenge. It’s gonna be a virga fest. .

.

Will be interesting to see this sharp gradient play out for us.
