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.
-
24 people in here at 6am is fairly impressive. We’re like the older crowd waiting for a grocery store to open.
-
20% chance for a further north solution is still a chance I’m willing to ride given how the model swings have been.
-
A little odd of there being nothing for the border & NW counties. Even if Chicago were a “bullseye”, there seems to be enough snow potential for at least a winter weather advisory.
-
Ensemble #13 is pretty ridiculous with the 3+ feet of snow in downtown Chicago within only 18 hours. Imagine getting feet of concrete snow.

Just had a couple power surges here in Poplar Grove. Hopefully that’s not my whole day here.
-
Ice accumulation would/will suck. I guess this is the time we hope for “SE & weaker” trends as we get closer.
