Lake enhancement should bump totals to 3-4” here for clipper #2.

If you can’t beat ‘em, torch ‘em.

It’s lake effect raining now. I hate it. Makes me angrier than Beavis during an El Niño winter.

Kinda rippin now. Too bad temps are marginal.

It’s not officially winter in the Midwest until we get a good Beavis rant . Nothing we can do to control the weather but it is frustrating.

Congrats Decatur

Snow mixing back in now. The lake effect squall forecast on the HRRR looks impressive this afternoon. Should rip for a couple of hours.

Clipper train going off the rails.

Took a blizzard to shut down Valpo in 2007. Only weather-related day off I got in four years. Times have changed.

Still have a snow depth of about 3”. Some light to moderate lake snow potential today and Sunday before the torch.

Kind of shocking to see clippers take the exact same track back to back.

Man, I love driving through WV in the summer. I can only imagine how gorgeous it must be with snow!

What limited research I've done on those winters shows they started with northwest flows and clippers laying down a good snowpack before bigger storms came in from the southwest. Would be epic to cash in on the same this season.

HRRR might be overdoing the lake-effect, but it's putting down 2-3" on Wednesday/Wednesday night out this way. Would obviously take it.

Snowpack will take a hit, but we need to eventually get out of the northwest flow pattern. Maybe it will set up a big dog for the New Year.
