With this kind of satellite presentation in the Midwest you'd expect to see an expansive shield of precip in the cold sector. This season's trends continue to confound.
I know the owner of the building so I reached out to make sure he was aware his building had collapsed and was burning to the ground. The tenant is a document storage company, not many employees on site. The owner said he hadn’t heard of any casualties or injuries.

Meat of the band impacting Racine/Kenosha counties at the moment, but still doesn't look all that impressive. Getting steady snow globe action up here and it's blowing around a bit, but not amounting to much. Looks nice anyways.
So ready for FlurryFest. I hope the flakes are really tiny.
Good luck to those on the cusp of a dog. Hope everything works out and this thing delivers.

Most intense storm in years. Wind was violent and yard is a mess. Hail was minor but lasted awhile. Very loud storm that’s finally passing. Power is out and will likely be out for a few hours. We took this one on the chin.
