    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.
  4. Cary67
    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.
  10. Cary67
    Dusters part 10 and 11 still on the table.
  11. Cary67
    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.

    Interesting Madison sits at 41.5" while RFD at 24" considering the eastern trough pattern dominating a lot of the winter. That 70 miles shows up significantly in seasonal averages. RFD at 37" vs 50" for Madison. They even exceed Milwaukee seasonally which seems odd given MKE LES potential to fluff up totals. Edit: Madison 51.8" seasonal average, MKE 48"
  15. Cary67
    What's your seasonal total up to?

    Being local I could do a wellness check.

    Yeah but it seems Chicago has benefitted more from LES events than normal this winter for being on the wrong side of the lake. I don't have statistics for it though.

    If it wasn't for LES ORD could join RFD in the sub 30 sweepstakes club. Clippers have dusted Chicago a bit more than the rest of N. IL also. Every mile further E/NE under the trough helps. Great winter for Toronto

    I will wait till at least St. Patrick's Day or possibly Easter for final tallies.

    Looked outside. This is broom event #9
  21. Cary67
    I would of thought you cashed in on a little LES. After the fast start its been mostly dusters here since Dec8th. Further east into downtown and north shore they've had some LES events. Every mile east of here matters as far as LES and being more under the clipper track this year. RFD still at 24" for the season but ORD up at 31"+. DTW even better along with a lot of Ohio relative to averages

    From LOT AFD: Also have to point out a growing signal for a southwest-flow synoptic scale cyclone somewhere east of the Rocky Mountains in the February 11-14 timeframe, with both the GEFS/EPS already favoring our area being on the warm side. Should a cyclone actually develop and we end up on the warm side, could easily envision forecast focus trending toward hydrology concerns considering the frost depth of just deeper than 13 inches at our office isn`t going to vanish anytime soon.

    RFD had 4.7" ORD 11.1" Jan.totals Average January ORD monthly totals 11.1" Difference mostly LES. MBY somewhere between those so would give the month a C-. Mostly swiped by dusters and flakes in the air from distant LES. Trough position too far east with us sitting on backside. If pattern resets ideally trough digs back further west if not could be repeat of January.
