    I officially brought the snow depth down to 0" this evening at ORD (Really its a T, but we don't report that). We've been barely hanging on to 1" for a day or two now, but there's just too much grass showing all-around to keep that fantasy going any longer.
  4. Chicago Storm
    they will, cause right now they’re not enthused.
  5. Chicago Storm
    I’m not saying that it will happen, but there is a way for the weekend clipper to end up north, even with the current clipper ending up well south.

    ORD picked up 0.1" of snow from the weak duster clipper on Monday night and then another 0.1" of snow this morning with the back-wash from most recent hybrid-clipper the past two days. Picked up 0.1" of snow at home with each as well.…2025/26 Season Snowfall...18.0" - RFD17.3" - ORD16.4" - Home

    the cams ended up caving, as did the globals. in the end a split scenario was what occurred. (not to say that will be the case this go-around, though)
  8. Chicago Storm
    "mild" ground temps + dp's above 32 + temps above 32 + windy + rain = rapid melt. also, if one has been looking at the pattern ahead, they would know a white christmas was never a guarantee.

    we saw this exact scenario with the event last weekend.
  10. Chicago Storm
    poor take, they definitelywere not dusters.
  11. Chicago Storm
    Sort of a chain reaction effect, with short term changes with the current trough in part leading to the changes for the clippers.
  12. Chicago Storm
    Squall potential faded away about a day ago, and the associated winds as well. Very poor handling in the short term by guidance.
  13. Chicago Storm
    The WI and MI crew should thread up that Tues/Wed clipper. It’s worthy, I’d say.
  14. Chicago Storm
    I have to check the exact number, but Winthrop Harbor is already at ~35" of snow on the season.

    While generally -SN to SN, had one or two brief periods of +SN overnight at home.

    Snow started here at home about 45 minutes ago. Solidly dusted thus far.
  24. Chicago Storm
    It’s still melting from ground up. Soil temps are in the mid 30’s still, with the snow insulating the ground from the cold.
  25. Chicago Storm
    i wouldn’t say that. the globals had a sizable shift north, and now with the decent shift south of the cams. essentially converging on a solution.
