    For those just waiting patiently at home here was my view about 45 minutes ago.

    Won’t let me upload picture but ripping right now in Mishawaka. Best snow of the season (that I’ve been awake for) so far. Quite pleased!

    If that comes to fruition I woukd think that would qualify for the new Snow Squall Warnings. Although last I heard, NWS, at least locally, may not have the product ready until next month. I guess we’ll find out!

    I think South Bend’s all-time record of -22 will be safe but just barely. Lake Michigan will play a role in moderating the temp just enough. It helps South Bend’s airport is on the northwest side of the city, closer to the lake. Wind chills around -40 on Wednesday will still be enough to shut down the county....and perhaps still cold enough on Thursday.

    Heaviest snow may go north of the IN/MI state line but the lake-effect response in the storm's wake looks like it could be impressive.

    Measured about 1/16th of an inch of ice just now. Freezing rain started coming down at a moderate clip while I was outside. Temperature currently at 30.

    Fart noise.

    Roads are already a mess out this way. Everyone affected by ice please be careful!!!

    -FZRA just started here. Gonna be a long day/night of listening to accidents in the police scanner.

    Well now the last four runs of the HRRR have shown temps staying below freezing much longer than previously forecast resulting in more ice accumulation in Northern IN. This is the latest run. I still think this overdone as temperatures do get close to 30/31 with heavier rain resulting in less efficient ice accretion, however, if this trend continues it may become a nowcasting event with a serious possibility of some areas in Michiana seeing 1/4 to 1/3 of an inch of ice.

    Ha! The 12z HRRR really held on to that freezing rain over Northern IN for a long time. Not buying into those extreme amounts since it's just one run of one model showing this output but I couldn't help but share.

    Not even 13 miles to my north it’s got to be ripping. So far just a coating imby.

    Their stubbornness is impressive at this point. Maybe they're thinking it will under perform?
  14. sbnwx85
    Nice coating and coming down at a decent clip northeast of South Bend.

    Had some flakes earlier. Hoping the fgen band comes far enough south to make me happy. Won't have any issues with dry air at the onset, at least.

    This is one of the trickier storms to track! I've been tracking as a hobby for years and I, like many forecasters in Northern Indiana, am not sure what will happen IMBY. I'm projected to be south of the fgen band and north of the deform band that develops near the low. It's uhhh...it's not great!

    Prediction from local TV station in South Bend.
  18. sbnwx85
    That's also quite the gradient along the northern tier of Indiana counties.

    I’ve always wanted to go lake-effect snow chasing. This might be the opportunity to do it. Getting back though may take more than a day...
  20. sbnwx85
    I grew up on the southeast side of the City of Elkhart. Occasionally we'd get a six inch lake-effect event but the big dogs were always west or northwest of me. I have lived in Central Illinois the last 7 winters and now I'm back in Mishawaka hoping to get a big LE event soon.
  21. sbnwx85
    Maybe technically off-topic but a perk of living downwind of Lake Michigan...bonus snow.
  22. sbnwx85
    Just measured 2.5” here. Probably will end up around 3. I’ll take it for a November snowfall.
  23. sbnwx85
    Moderate to heavy rain at times in South Bend/Mishawaka. Some ponding on roads and leaves down on roads make it slick in spots. That should be an interesting dynamic for roads when/if the snow starts overnight.
  24. sbnwx85
    I was a little worried about being dry slotted here but last few runs of HRRR and RAP keep the dry slot filled in with rain changing to snow in full force by 7z or 8z. Snows pretty good for about 6 hours. I can certainly live with a high-end advisory level snow. Good luck to you folks in IL!
  25. sbnwx85
    My goodness. You guys in northern IL might not see green grass again until Memorial Day.
