Going to go outside to enjoy the couple of hours above 50 here before the quick temp crash. It’s going to be a wild ride

The latest subzero temp on record at Chicago is -1, 3/22/1888

and only 17 total dips below zero on record for the month of March.

If we had weather chats through those 50 we would have bitched through most of them.

After last year’s dog turd of a winter, I am satisfied with this years experience. Hell of an improvement from last year if we’re keeping it real. 
 

we had 17” or whatever it was at ORD last season

You live by climo and die by climo, beggars can’t be choosers. 

For some perspective we have 50+  seasons on record of below 30” at ORD.

Clunker months are going to happen even in an A/B level winter.

IMO It’s all about the seasonal snow fall total at the end. 

Solid B for me in the NW burbs with the memorable NOV. 

Here’s a hypothetical, what if we received the ~30” at ORD in 3 even 10” shots or 4-7.5” storms?
 

Would that change any one’s grades?

The amount of happy chemicals my brain managed to derive from a ten-minute lunch break dog walk in 28 and sunny almost just shot me straight through "I guess I'd still take a big dawg" season.

The human body’s thermoregulation never ceases to amaze me! That same 28 and sunny in November would feel downright cold.
 

After a couple of cold winter months though it now feels lovely! 

Sun angle concerns right around the corner as well! Have about a 3 week window here to cash in on a big-dog and then it’s on to spring.  

Going to see some classic sublimation of the local snowpack the next few days. 
 

sunny, dry, and enough wind

This could end up being the most widespread-significant nearly pure multi-band LES events that I can remember on this side of the lake...

Definitely one of the more potent LE  events on this side of the Lake in recent memory. Jan 22 2005 was fun too.

Dry as a bone 

Might jump above freezing for a little bit tomorrow, going to feel nice

going 3 on the midweek duster

Congratz MKE according to NAM/Hi-Res

I forgot how insane 2019 was around here. Daytime readings double-digits <0

Plus 20mph winds

hate it

Fingers crossed the cold moderates a little a bit as we get closer. Friday/Saturday looks nasty across Chicagoland as of now.

Bust ass game anyway 

Bad call

FTP 

Going to be a fun night at solider field with flakes flying!  

Coming down nicely 

Don’t be surprised if we see an uptick in QPF (esp. for N IL)as we move closer and closer to the event. . .  

Can you even touch the rim Jongirl? I’m 5’8, 27yo and I can do this. . . 

Guarantee my nuts will be in yo face if we ball. 

your a pretty abrasive guy for posting that you saw MYI growth where there was none. You still haven't posted how the MYI is growing.

You cliamed there were Countless papers on cryosat2. You posted ZERO of them.

You completely dismissed out right methane leaking through ice cracks and again you were wrong.

Is ironic that your in this thread grilling these guys on this when you continue to not back up

the claims you make.

You may want to be more fair

Claimed

It is

You are the only person on this thread, or any other thread, who has used the terms "most" or "majority" in reference to the emission of arctic methane. If you had actually read any of the papers that have been referenced you could have learned that release of even a small percentage (much less than half) of the methane reservoir will have serious climate impact.

By continuing your rant you are making yourself look silly and are trashing what little credibility you have.

lolwut?
