  1. 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.
  2. Guess I’ll be the loner pulling for a North American coup. Where’s my furry Viking helmet?
  3. 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
  4. 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.
  5. Perhaps when RC pops online, he can give his thoughts. When should we start radar watching?
  6. 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.
  7. 24 people in here at 6am is fairly impressive. We’re like the older crowd waiting for a grocery store to open.
  8. 20% chance for a further north solution is still a chance I’m willing to ride given how the model swings have been.
  9. 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.
  10. Ensemble #13 is pretty ridiculous with the 3+ feet of snow in downtown Chicago within only 18 hours. Imagine getting feet of concrete snow.
  11. Just had a couple power surges here in Poplar Grove. Hopefully that’s not my whole day here.
  12. Ice accumulation would/will suck. I guess this is the time we hope for “SE & weaker” trends as we get closer.
  13. Snow commenced in Poplar Grove about 15 minutes ago. Road in my subdivision already covered. Usually very light traffic on my way to work, but expecting crappy conditions on my drive later this afternoon.
  14. Been a pretty steady snow here since about 10am. The only negative about this happening today is we have to travel a little bit for a surprise birthday dinner. But otherwise, let it snow!
  15. Would it be more prudent to look at 10:1 maps or Kuchera maps?
  16. Nothing like mixed precip all the way into the southern portion of Boone county. Verbatim, I’m just barely in the snow on that run.
  17. Chicago has had to become dependent on Feb-Apr for 95% of their seasonal totals recently. Best climo. Jealous?
  18. Looks like the trend will need to be the same yet again where February/March are the golden winter months for N/NE IL in terms of snowfall.
  19. Ready 2 b buried. Sorry, did I say buried? I meant frozen. Because jiminy cricket, does it hurt to be outside.
  20. Apparently, this is similar to how the open areas will look tonight. Sheesh
  21. Some flurry action in Poplar Grove. I’m surrounded by a few houses, but mainly open fields. The blowing & drifting should be solid.
  22. This might be the most empty feeling Winter Storm Warning I can recall.
