I think you have to be to thoroughly (obsessively) enjoy weather like we do

6" that fell in Aurora the other day has solidified down to a galicerious 4". Wonder what snow depth will be after this one

Slopfest at ORD. Literally slush falling from the sky. Hopefully it can flip to all snow once better returns move over as we're in a lull right now, but hopes aren't too high

Things are changin....still time for those near the transition zone big south shift from 12z NAM

Details aside, it sure is nice to have winter weather to track again. Last winter was largely a bust, 2022 was alright but would've been unremarkable if it weren't for the early Feb storm. Seems like Feb '21 was the last time we had a period of back-to-back systems to track like this, let's keep it rolling.
-
I was going to ask if you were confusing '21 with '22, I had to go back and look today because I thought the big storm in Feb '22 was actually '21. Had 13" at my place from that.

I thought it was just me, but it really seems like we went from March to June in a week.

Satellite trends look good too with ample clearing across W C IL

Could be a big day possibly. No morning convection to ruin things for once

Was literally trapped at home for most of yesterday as moving water was flowing over my driveway. Creeks locally have never been so high except for in 2008. More heavy rain won’t be pretty -
Looks like some of the latest hrrr/rap runs are correcting a bit north. Obs look good as well in support of this
-
WSW out for part of DVN’s cwa. Wonder if LOT will follow suit.

At my local caseys they have a tape line about 4’ away from the counter, the cashier asks you to put your items on the counter & step back behind the line. He/she then scans them and then tells you your total, steps back, and then you’re able to pay using only card. They’re not accepting cash at this time
-
Stores are still packed, as many have mentioned above. I guarantee if they didn’t close restaurants people would still be going. I really think they need to just do a total lockdown for a little while and close non essential businesses. Just get it over with

Illinois is probably next. Most schools already have announced some sort of change (extended spring break, planning to go online) even without the state mandating it.
-
Not sure about the details on this one, but a friend coming back from University of Kentucky said they were not allowed to fill gas tanks all the way. Haven’t heard of any other such occurrences yet but still. either way, normal life has never been anywhere near this disrupted in my lifetime. Kind of crazy to see all this stuff happening when a week ago I didn’t think any of this was possible

Reconsider majoring in meteorology!
CoalCityWxMan replied to stormguy80's topic in Weather Forecasting and Discussion
So I just stumbled across this thread, I’m going to Northern IL University in a month for meteorology and I keep seeing things like this that really want to make me reconsider. I know this was posted 8 years ago so I’m sure things have changed but if anyone has any insight into this I’d love to hear it, giving myself some other options just Incase sounds like the best bet to me right now but I’d love to hear any advice anyone may have.
