    horrid decision making. that makes all too much sense.

    Cold front passed through the area earlier this afternoon, with (convective) rain showers accompanying it, which helped to transport higher winds down to the surface. Peak wind gusts of 48MPH at ORD, 52MPH at MDW, and 41MPH at RFD.

    Solid sunset a short time ago at ORD…
  4. Chicago Storm
    yes, you have proven your criteria and expectations are outlandish.
  5. Chicago Storm
    6-9” is a big snow, statistically speaking. whatever parallel universe you and beavis live in must be one hell of a place. -2 for using hoss twice.
  6. Chicago Storm
    bad placement. take a break, hoss.
  7. Chicago Storm
    we don’t? you may want to inform central illinois that their 6-9” on saturday was a mirage.
  8. Chicago Storm
    wut.

    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.
  12. Chicago Storm
    they will, cause right now they’re not enthused.
  13. 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)
  16. 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.
  17. Chicago Storm
    we saw this exact scenario with the event last weekend.
  18. Chicago Storm
    poor take, they definitelywere not dusters.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. Chicago Storm
    The WI and MI crew should thread up that Tues/Wed clipper. It’s worthy, I’d say.
  22. Chicago Storm
    I have to check the exact number, but Winthrop Harbor is already at ~35" of snow on the season.
  23. Chicago Storm
    go
