    I still remember complaining on WWBB about it.

    2011-12 finished with 19.8", which was the lowest total for Chicago since 1948-49

    Was curious so I checked. Here's a fun fact. ORD snowfall through 1/28 2011-12: 13.7" 2022-23: 13.6"

    This really is a true statement. The peak snow amounts weren't extraordinarily impressive, but the coverage of the 10"+ amounts in Indiana was even a bit more widespread than the '99 storm. And the aftermath with the intense cold and prolonged period of bad road conditions is something I'll always remember. If we're grouping all-time winter storms for Indiana, it's a solid 1b tier storm with the main knock against it being a lack of high end amounts (say 18"+)

    Cool. Post the monthly.

    It's almost like 2000-01, but without the spectacular December. Just a minor difference.
  7. Hoosier
    Nevermind. I see a line in the climate report saying that the snow amount is as of noon.

    Somebody not know how to measure at ORD? 0.2" snow on 0.09" precip with temps being in the mid 20s. One of those can't be right.

    We were talking about it the other day, and it's no surprise that the models generally underdid the warming to some extent south of the front.

    Definitely think LOT will expand the advisory southward with the afternoon package to account for icing. Temps could be around 28-30 in part of the icing area. The warm layer aloft is not obnoxiously warm (no 10C or something like that) so raindrop temperatures won't be extremely warm. This combined with rates that should be mostly light would suggest not much, if any qpf being "wasted"

    Welcome to ice club anonymous. Well... not so anonymous. The Canadian duo (global and regional) is actually fairly bullish on ice amounts in a narrow zone south of us, but they are high outliers at this point. 17z HRRR
  12. Hoosier
    HRRR has been creeping south since you posted that. I'm more interested in the ice since the snow is going to be a non-event locally. Best ice zone could end up just to my south, but it should be close.

    see f ass has a nice north-south temp gradient and is wetter than average. I'd take my chances with its overall look.

    Dude, Dayton has had like 10" of snow in January.
  15. Hoosier
    February is not allowed to not be active. Come on boy, do your thing.
  16. Hoosier
    Got flakeage. Gonna be very transient here though.

    Mini weenie-band around Kankakee for Chicagowx.
  18. Hoosier
    You think you guys may need to increase the ice threat a little in central to southern cwa? Current output would suggest maybe a tenth of accretion being possible in some areas.
  19. Hoosier
    Your call is due by 9 pm tomorrow.
  20. Hoosier
    0.8" at ORD Adding up to what will look like an okay snowfall month on paper.
  21. Hoosier
    Compromise solution on models would put the freezing rain band right through here. Ice amounts should be fairly light wherever it ends up, but modest precip rates and a warm layer aloft that isn't super warm likely means rather efficient accretion of whatever does fall.
  22. Hoosier
    Would anticipate somebody overperforming in the band.
  23. Hoosier
    All things considered, it seems reasonable enough. Tricky call for them, but at some point you have to make one. Can't punt forever.
  24. Hoosier
    34 at ORD... will be a race to see if what fell today can hang on before temps drop.
  25. Hoosier
    Yesterday was the first colder than average day in Chicago this month... a whopping -1
