Changed my travel plans for the evening. Hopefully Metra doesn’t have a major disruption & I can still get into Chicago later tonight.
-
Need some opinions here. I’m currently planning to catch a train out of Harvard at 5:20pm, set to arrive in Jefferson Park at 6:48pm. HRRR seems to be showing a lull in severity between 5 & 7pm, but severe weather can pop up whenever it wants. I can’t read the advanced stuff for rain events as well as I know others here can. Should I stick to that train or try for a later one/get the first train out tomorrow morning?

Looks like a lull before some more snow as it exits. Wonder if the storms down south stole any of the moisture since (pretty much all) models had snow falling uninterrupted until afternoon.
-
Storm has begun here with some freezing rain…or maybe just ice pellets.

I guess I’ll stand alone embracing our March 2023 snow overloads.

I actually love late season snows. Falls, sticks around for some hours, and then it’s all gone. It’s like a one night stand.

Always nice to see 4-8” on the P&C on…checks notes…March 24th.

A heavy burst of snow before it winds down. Very enjoyable little event.
-
After 21 years, Rockford finally has seen 10+ inches of snow (2.9” from this system) over a three day period…in the month of March. Extremely specific, but hey, take wins when they’re given.
-
With the 7.3 at RFD, was it a matter of the storm having more moisture or were the ratios closer to 10:1 than anticipated? The Kuchera maps leading up had been around 5, whereas the 10:1 maps were 6-8.

I left work early at 7pm. Typical 35 minute drive from Woodstock to Poplar Grove took double the time in near whiteout conditions a majority of the way. A white knuckle drive, but this storm isn’t disappointing up here as of yet.

Always nice to wake up to a WSW. 5-10” in the P&C; would be cool to get 6 out of this.

N IL looking snowier on 12z GFS. Not NAM level, but 6+ across the board.

Winter 2022/23 Medium/Long Range Discussion
Sciascia replied to Chicago Storm's topic in Lakes/Ohio Valley
Probably best to wait until 36hrs out to make a thread these days. -
Less Morch, more Smarch.

Normally, I’d have canceled by now. But this seems like a complex storm to get a handle on. So I’m going to be radar watching.

Guess I’ll be the loner pulling for a North American coup. Where’s my furry Viking helmet?

GFS is further SE with its’ snow amounts. It resembles the EURO now. So it’s the globals vs. North America. World War III: Weather Edition

The 24-36hr massive shifts also create public distrust with forecasters, which could get someone in trouble down the line when an actual “Big Dog” is set to happen & they don’t believe it.
-
Perhaps when RC pops online, he can give his thoughts. When should we start radar watching?

The NAM, while south of 6z, still looks to clobber Chicago metro at HR30. So it’s not letting the sun come out to play just yet.
