After last August don't want anymore of these moments

Grass is threatening to be mowed,streaks of warmer days, fewer days regressing back to the 30s and 40s. Tulips emerging..signs real spring is here and pseudo spring is coming to an end. About 4 weeks to enjoy upper 50s to mid 70s weather before the switch flips to summer late May.

Entering not so blessed climo time. Although on nice warm spring days that NE lake breeze hits late afternoon out here

Lower 30s snow wise? RFD escaped sub 30 club barely with latest March snowfalls totalling 6.8". Although areas around RFD received more from blizzard in the 7-10" range.

That's surprising. I'm guessing 2 maybe 3" here but will wait to see snow totals around the area.

Ready for 1" here and 7" in Harvard. This is RFDs chance to escape the sub 30 club

After Dec.8th been living on the margins all winter

N.IL snow totals

If only winter storms here were as reliable as tornados

Dusting part 10

Think it means, "Trying too hard."As in reverse psychology posting it won't snow here,ergo it will.

Dusters part 10 and 11 still on the table.

Heavy rain here.

Dreams of skating on a green Chicago River

Outside of LES zones one might think hoping to track numerous winter storms in this area every year is by in large a waste of time. Or at least an exercise in long term patience. Except for some favorable pattern years ie 13-14,07-08, and some big dogs; most years the reality of our snow climate falls well short of weather enthusiasts tracking hopes.
