The springs in N.IL and especially by the lake have always been short and sucky with some exceptions. For the most part it's mid to late April till mid to late May. I think the loss of December whether its an El Nino or La Nina isn't compensated enough by cold Marches. The winter windows of opportunity seem to be narrowing in length and frequency. It highlights the fewer winners vs all the losers even more so in areas solely relying on synoptic snowfall. LES areas still have the buffer of receiving snow when cold air makes its brief intrusions.

If this happens the NWS may have to issue a CAD watch for Alek

Good thing we hung onto some snow as Norgi ski jump festival is this weekend.

24 miles NW

Yeah this fog is relentless. Snow melt is progressing but slowly.

Was that mostly LES?

Probably the high water mark for snow depth and that deep winter feel. Some ZR then the great melt

Frontogenic magic

Sadly looks like Norgi ski weekend on Jan.27-28th could be a slop fest if rain and warmth next week comes to fruition.

Far NW burbs of Chicago. Not too far from WI state line

Around 11" here

Off on light snow here as radar looks better than reality

Light snow falling again after period of drizzle

Are you referring to latest HRRR runs? RFD far enough NW to avoid it but not here

Did the 1st driveway pass. 8" down and snow keeps falling after brief lull.

Yikes it's brutiful outside. Another spotter had Cary at 7"

But this is my moment

After the last several years I will believe it when I shovel it

I believe this was it

Maybe 3" here. SE McHenry continues to amaze.

I thought it was way NW with today's system at long range before correcting back SE in later runs. Like your location moreso than mine for this one

NAM nailing it correct at 78-84hrs??Would rather see cutting it NW through central Iowa at this range.

Been lightly snowing for awhile. Not really accumulating. Maybe an inch down. 3.8" call looking good if not robust. The road to 20-25" seasonal totals continues Edit: moderate snow starting to accumulate

Interesting. Must be personal only a dusting here.
