  1. Are there a lot of other accidents you’re hearing about in the area? I know you said you work for a towing company (I think) so I figured you’d know, roads just seem awful and I’ve seen a number of people stuck in the last few hours.
  2. Approaching 7.5” in Dekalb, hard to tell exactly with all the blowing though. Could see those 12-14” totals verify for sure.
  3. If so, wonder how far north it’ll move. Hopefully not far
  4. I just unofficially measured 4.9”, but I’d give or take a few tenths with the wind. Roads look terrible (as I’m sure you’re aware) and there were a few cars stuck/tires spinning and there’s like 4” of snow/slush/ice covering Annie Glidden
  5. NIU just announced they’re opening late at 10 tomorrow...wonder if they’ll end up changing that
  6. Ripping in Dekalb, probably 2”/hr rates. Winds really ramping up. Can’t wait to have this continue all night.
  7. Tornado warning associated with this system in the St. Louis area. Quite the system
  8. Buckle up folks Sure it’s overdone but still fun to look at
  9. coming down hard in sycamore, already accumulating. Hope the fgen band can hold on until the main stuff gets here
  10. The hrrr has been fluncuating back and forth, wouldn’t doubt it sets up right along 88 though just looking at trends. Whoever gets under it will get a nice head start
  11. Wondering if LOT is about to pull the trigger on blizzard warnings..
  12. Not to mention widespread wind gusts of 45-55MPH...quite the blizzard being depicted here.
  13. This hrrr run is something for the archives for N IL...
  14. The hrrr has me feeling very confident, seems like it’s in agreement with the euro for the most part.
  15. FWIW, HRRR is initializing quite a bit north of where the current surface low is.
  16. Don’t understand why anyone would be giving up in the slightest. Chances are the track will be about the same as what was proved a few hours ago.
  17. I don’t think what you’re referring to is mixing, it’s just heavy snow.
  18. 18z HRRR...still snowing at the end of the run so add another 1-3” atleast for the hard hit areas. Wow.
  19. Yeah the RAP is trying to give some areas on the northern fringe some love. I’d agree with the general placement of the snow swath on the RAP
