Listening to community reaction and the fact there were 33 crashes in South Bend/St. Joseph County as that weenie band went through... seems like this would have been a proper time for a Snow Squall Warning.

1.8” at home. Not bad considering I was expecting 0.5”

15-vehicle pileup on the US 20 bypass just west of South Bend. Lake effect overperforming early. Temps in the teens and bursts of heavy snow are taking a serious toll on the roads.

Teenie weenie has arrived here. A proper snow for about 20 minutes.

I've got about 3-4" still on the ground. Should get about a half inch to freshen it up tomorrow. Maybe I can finally get some lake winds to blow in my favor early next week. All this cold and no lake-effect big dogs this year. Sad!

Ended with 2.3”

Hoping the lakes don't freeze over too quickly to keep the LE hopes alive.

lol @ IWX being forced to issue headlines for 2-4" because neighboring offices decided to do it. .DISCUSSION... Issued at 320 AM EST Fri Jan 10 2025 The winter weather forecast for today remains on track with widespread 2 to 4 inches of snow expected. The winter weather advisory was a byproduct of neighboring offices hoisting advisories.

2.8 inches. Final call.

I'll eat grass if we get a rainer before Jan. 30 out of this pattern.

#blessed with nearly 1.5" today at home. Nothing fell at work just 7 miles northeast. Classic lake effect.

Completely off-topic but the wind/fire storm near Los Angeles tonight could be historic.

Cold is just “ter”. Add snow and that’s a win. Thusly, that’s when you get “winter”. I think it’s Latin or something.

Yeah… this will be our annual two weeks of winter.

Team GFS. Because someone has to be.

From ILX. To me this is the dumbest way to word a Winter Storm Warning. Is the public really more responsive to probabilities? Just tell me how much snow to expect. WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO NOON CST MONDAY... * WHAT...Heavy snow likely near and south of a Beardstown to Paris line. A high confidence (80% chance) of at least 6 inches of snow. A medium confidence (40% chance) of at least 12 inches of snow. Blowing snow likely with wind gusts up to 35 mph. Mixed precipitation possible. A low confidence (30% chance) of at least one tenth of an inch of ice near and south of US Highway 50. * WHERE...Heavy snowfall across portions of central, east central, southeast, and west central Illinois. Freezing rain and ice accumulation confined to areas near and south of US Highway 50 across southeast Illinois. * WHEN...From midnight tonight to noon CST Monday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions will impact the Monday morning commute.

Blizzard Warnings up for parts of Kansas and northwest Missouri.

1.5” on the ground. It’s been snowing lightly all morning but not accumulating anymore. Maybe… maybe we’ll squeeze out another inch from the system tomorrow.

We'll get em next year.

Freezing rain threat still appears to be a major concern along the Ohio River valley. That may end up being the real "star" of this storm if trends hold. Plus, cold air filtering in behind this system means melting won't happen like we typically see with freezing rain events.

1.2” of snow since last night thanks to the system and light lake effect. Better than a poke in the eye.

Euro/GDPS/UKIE vs. GFS/ICON. Pick your team.

Monster sleet storm is in the table too.

Wasn’t expecting more than flurries and we’re up to half an inch. Might nickel and dime our way to a 3” snowpack by Tuesday morning.

Creeping north. Might get to advisory level snows if this keeps up. Wish the Euro would join in.
