    Maybe I’m saying this because my dogs got me up at 4:45am to go outside, but my backyard is a little ridiculous right now. In some spots, the snow height is almost reaching the top of my calves. And my dogs’ legs aren’t really visible. Perhaps I’ll feel better with a little more sleep I’m thankful & grateful for the bountiful start of snow season.

    Did I read correctly that this is ORD’s biggest single-day snowfall measurement since 11/21 of 2015?!

    May be a little dry-hole coming over the Poplar Grove area around 6pm. We’ll see if it fills in. There was about 3-4 on the ground when I shoveled earlier. Looking similar out my window right now. So my uneducated, unsubstantiated guess would be 7 inches so far in the area.

    Yeah. I typically don’t run with them for forecasts; but I just wanted to check for gits & shiggles. Even the most aggressive maps have painted 13.5 at most in these parts.

    I’m not sure where Accuweather pulls out their probability percentages. But I would say throwing a 30% chance on a 15 inch minimum outcome seems a little extreme/careless.

    Happy Black Friday to those that celebrate with their wallets! Here’s just a brief run-down of Kuch maps from recent model runs: 12z HRRR, 12z 4K NAM, and 6z Euro.

    00z GFS nearly a carbon copy of 18z in terms of snow amounts

    Operational NAM cooking up another weenie run, especially for E IA/NW IL/SW WI. Hi-res NAM still high but a couple inches lesser.

    Let’s behold it together (thru noon Saturday)

    You don’t say…

    84hr NAM (lol) but sharing as it’s reaching range. Run ends when snow is continuing to fall.

    I’ve been sidelined from work since November 6th dealing with a lower back injury. Things are looking good that I’ll be cleared tomorrow to go back to work on 12/1. So, of course, a potential winter storm may dump a foot right before I go back & my 20 year old Explorer is immediately put to the test.

    Flakes in Poplar Grove. I won’t be in on the lake effect fun, but the first snow of the season is always enjoyable.

    Looks like the lull period will include the Bears game, which is a shame.

    A trained spotter measured 4.5 inches in Capron, IL (super close to me) at 8:13am. I’m going to guess that easily jumped over 5, maybe even 6 if they can chime in again later. If it hit 6 inches, that would be the top event of the season.

    I am around 23 miles northeast of RFD, and 10 or so miles away from the IL/WI border. RFD, as of a little over an hour ago, picked up 3.1 inches from the snow band.

    Appreciated. It was 80 degrees here around 3pm Friday. To go from that to this in about 40 hours is that late 90s/early 00s climate I remember growing up with.
  21. Sciascia
    Confirmed.

    I’m going to be on the road at 10pm Friday. That orange blob inching closer to the cheddar curtain hopefully stays back.

    Feels like it’s been 2-3 straight winter seasons of them overall. Storm on models for multiple days, showing 6+ as late as 24hrs before the event, and then only ends up being a 1-2 inch pixie duster.

    Me, jumping on the forum for the first time in 4 hours looking for happy IL peeps: (Looking like a good one for Michigan)

    The boom/bust potential being legit at both ends for the NE-IL area makes me not envy any of those mets.
