  1. Indiana Department of Homeland Security is deploying military personnel to help drivers who get stuck on the Indiana Toll Road starting tonight.
  2. Based on social media comments on my station's pages, people aren't quite grasping the seriousness of this. They're getting caught up on snow amounts, most saying it won't be that bad. I'm sure many are going to push it to make it home for Christmas. It's going to be a long weekend for first responders.
  3. 10" seems reasonable here. Areas in Berrien County. MI should hit 16" or more. This is essentially an monster arctic front turned into a long duration lake effect event on steroids.
  4. I wouldn't be surprised. The lake effect is going to be reaching far inland. Plus, ground blizzard conditions should occur if winds do indeed verify.
  5. Knowing how the HRRR overdoes lake-effect amounts I'm very excited to see what it spits out.
  6. SREF plume for SBN just went up to 20 inches by Saturday morning
  7. My first Blizzard Warning in almost exactly 10 years. Excuse me while I weenie.
  8. Hoping everyone is preparing for possible power outages with this system and frigid cold...even areas that don't get a lot of snow. We lost power during the November 5th wind event with winds between 60 and 70 mph. This event won't be as strong but with the cold temps any power outages could become a big problem if you can't keep warm.
  9. SBN still in the game for possible double digit totals. Berrien County, just to our north, might be the best place to get blizzard conditions locally.
  10. Despite the shift I’m still in the bullseye. I’m holding my breath on every run.
  11. Behind the scenes. Assignment Editor nightside. I used to be on air for a radio station in Jacksonville, IL. I covered one blizzard warning there in 2012 but it was for quick hit that brought blizzard conditions for about two hours. It was exciting but I’m really looking forward to a longer-duration blizzard.
  12. I have yet to cover a true blizzard while working in TV news. We’re already asking crews who were off Friday to come into work. I usually work 1 pm to 10 pm, but I have a feeling I’ll be starting my Friday much earlier and ending it sometime late on Saturday.
  13. Ya’ll can come spend Festivus here in South Bend.
  14. Low goes directly overhead on this run but the lake enhancement is going to make up for any track issues.
  15. I’m referring to this as the Festivus Blizzard.
  16. Pretty good agreement among the models at this stage. Hoping the west trend stops here otherwise I’m going to be dealing with mixing issues. Still in a great spot for now.
  17. If it actually sits and spins (phrasing!) over Michigan like the Euro is depicting that is going to be a devastating blizzard here.
