  1. For whatever it’s worth the NAM Kuchera totals at hour 84 are generally only about an inch less than the GFSv16 totals at hour 84. At least in Northern IL and IN.
  2. Feeling really good about this one. Tomorrow should tell the tale about how this one will play out for the I-80 corridor in Indiana. GFS has been pretty consistent for heavy snow here and the Euro is trending further north.
  3. I told myself last night I wouldn't constantly monitor the board and models but here we are.
  4. Some moderate snow here. Starting to accumulate but not terribly efficiently. It’s remained all snow as far as I know.
  5. Brutal Euro run for Indiana and Michigan folks looking for a warning criteria snow. Horrible. Certainly not throwing in the towel but this trend toward shearing out before the best snows get this far east is getting hard to ignore.
  6. I assume there's a pretty decent amount of freezing rain south of the heaviest snow on the 18Z Euro run? Asking for a friend...that friend is me.
  7. That's as far north as I want the GFS to go, thanks.
  8. Considering how heated things are getting on the forum we're not going to have any cold air in place at all.
  9. Oh, yeah. We'll be fine. We just haven't had a major non-lake effect storm though in about three years. I work in a newsroom and the public is already getting antsy asking stupid questions and trying to compare this to the Blizzard of '78.
  10. I went to the store this morning to beat the rush over the weekend. Officially under a Milk and Bread Watch as far as I'm concerned.
  11. I haven't seen a double-digit snowfall since I lived in Central Illinois in March 2013. If I can just get to 10 with this storm I'll be happy camper. Looks like it's going to be a close call at this point.
  12. I haven’t seen or heard it but apparently there’s some thundersnow to my south!
  13. Mostly graupel here with the recent shower that came through. Local news crew hit a pretty good snow burst in the western part of the county.
  14. IWX has yet to issue a Snow Squall Warning since they were created a couple seasons ago. Thoughts on any of these squalls reaching warning criteria on Friday? That's gonna be about the most fun I think I'll get out of this system.
  15. There should be a pretty excellent, extended lake response with the continued NW flow coming starting next weekend (Knocks on wood).
  16. Ice has been slow to melt here. The snow that fell last night is still on on top of the ice. Pretty remarkable and beautiful. But there’s also plenty of ice on the trees and the wind is starting to blow again. Not real excited for the inch or two of cement coming. I’m afraid we’re going to see outages skyrocket overnight and into the morning.
  17. Snow that fell on top of the ice knocked out power to over 31,000 in South Bend-Elkhart. Fortunately mine is still on but it’s going to be a long day for power crews.
  18. Wet snow coming down on icy trees tonight should make for some beautiful pictures in the morning. I’ll have to get up before temps get above freezing tomorrow.
  19. Flipped to snow here. Coming down at a good clip. Ended with only about 0.1” of ice here. Some areas nearby had closer to 0.2” with some minor tree damage and power outages. Overall, my local NWS did a good job with the forecast.
  20. It's been all freezing rain here but the accretion has been very inefficient. It's not sticking much to the cars. I measured just 1/16th of an inch on some tree branches. Have had some heavy freezing rain but lots of runoff.
  21. Been slammed at work so haven't been able to go look around outside. Roads are an absolute mess though. Looking out the window it looks like a light glaze.
