  4. you’re not missing anything, as it’s not really accumulating much out west here at home.
  5. idk… 1-3” area wide this evening, another D-2” tomorrow.

  7. events up north need threads more often.
  8. horrid decision making. that makes all too much sense.
  9. 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.
  10. yes, you have proven your criteria and expectations are outlandish.
  11. 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.
  12. we don’t? you may want to inform central illinois that their 6-9” on saturday was a mirage.
  13. we thank you for participating in this 2.5 week stretch of winter. we now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
  14. Low temperatures last night/this morning... -6 RFD -2 ORD -1 MDW Peak wind chills last night/this morning... -23 RFD -21 ORD -21 MDW
  15. 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.
