    Clouds thinning out already in loop area. I usually have no faith in strong severe after atmosphere mixing and stabilization this late in the day, but will be interested to see if SPC/forecast models are onto something.

    Warned for 90 mph Kendall and Kane Counties in IL

    There's no way this last line can miss Chicago now... right? right?? Unless we get the I-39 special where the line hits a wall

    Downtown Chicago in the screwhole for round 1

    Getting a little concerned for Peoria based on the hook developing on that cell.

    Tornado warnings starting to pop up now... here we go

    Just measured 65/51 in downtown Chicago, this is definitely overperforming versus what the models were predicting.

    Seems like SPC either doesnt like far NE IL for sig. wind/tornadoes or is deliberately trying to avoid showing the moderate risk over the lake And with NE storm motion (not SE) the boundaries seem a bit confusing to me.

    Interesting that the MO storms seem to have fizzled out/coverage is less than modeled.

    Been too long since we have had a set up not be limited by daytime clouds and/or convection. Today definitely doesn't feel like one of those days.

    95% issuance of tornado watch in N 3/4 of Missouri and far W Central IL per SPC MD #388 for this morning cluster just exiting Kansas. Will be interesting to see how this plays out, will this wave be the main show for N IL? Are the dynamics of this system strong enough to recover quickly for the primary threat? Time will tell! Also to note, am already seeing peeks of sun here in Chicago.

    Let's keep that radar filling in with mod snow all evening
  15. homedis
    As soon as the winds picked up here, the flakes are clearly getting pulverized to pixie dust
  16. homedis
    Super decent sized flakes here in N Cook County w dusting on the ground already. Ready to b buried in 5" of snow

    Love the GFS just dancing around the ECMWF

    Yeah I just told a friend to change their flight ORD to CLE from Thursday afternoon to Wednesday afternoon. Regardless of what happens I told them saving the headache of cancelled flights/possibly being stranded from spending christmas together with family is not worth waiting it out.

    Feeling pretty good with Chicago’s central position in the main swath of snow considering a 100 mi shift to the west would keep us locked in and a 100 mi shift to the east, LES would still help inflate totals.

    Sirens in West Loop. Got a really good view NW here from 21st story will keep updated. https://imgur.com/a/ejjHvCq

    I noticed that as well, have been waiting for the lake front to move thru but its almost 3:45 and we’re here at 86 degrees in the West Loop of Chicago

    Measured 8.4” w/ SN currently, this last band wont leave & I wont complain lol Before and after pics: https://imgur.com/a/85BanTt

    Definitely in the range of fire (ex. RAP bullseyes DT Chi a little more) but either way its gonna be more of a now-cast situation.
  24. homedis
    HRRR/RAP killed it w last week's LES event, so feeling pretty good with what they're showing for the next 24ish hours Any insight from the pros on how LES parameters are looking?
  25. homedis
    Yep, probably somewhere between 8 and 8.5" now with some heavier returns approaching... already satisfied, rest is just bonus. I think we'll end at 9-10" pre-LES
