Thats why in the future Texans will start to move back to IL for our milder winters

Its going to have to be quite a run from late January till St. Patrick's Day to resuscitate this winter from bad grades

Unless heralded "pattern" change to a colder regime happens mid to late month ORD may have a tough time reaching 15" by Feb

Remember that one. Thought my area received close to 11"

Euro maybe picking up on it

Looks similar to December

EC and lower OV getting excited. El Nino reborn for the next few weeks

Not golden on this one

Yeah not expecting anything here. Looks quiet till mid month after this weekend. Still see problems with not enough cold air with potential systems.

Hopefully you do better then the snowfall forecasts for extreme NE IL the last two events.

None here

Don't think this forecast will verify

Yeah switched here also. Wednesday repeat with maybe snow on backend

Snowing here currently

Wonder if this will be a repeat of Wed.

That band is a bit tight. Won't complain though if that verifies

Are there concerns ice accretion will be significant in the northern tier counties or just snow mostly?

No ice or very little on the trees here in Cary either

Looks like I'm golden again.lol

You post on this thread far more than I do. I'm not allowed to? Bidens going to come to the rescue? Just an observation that a government roll out of vaccinations maybe a slow mess whether its under Trump or Biden. Point being if you don't get shots in people's arms by the summer or fall what the hell is the point. Also Fauci forced me to remind everyone incessantly vaccine roll out so far has been disappointing.lol

They just reported roughly 126,000 vaccinations have been given in IL so far. Been about two weeks worth of vaccine availability. Assuming we kept that rate of vaccinations it would take yrs to vaccinate enough people.

I maybe a bit naive here in Mchenry Co. but most everything seems open during this so called tier 2 mitigation of closings. Most of our restaurants are open for indoor dining and bars. Stores were busy over the holidays. Outside of the airlines and my kids not being in school can't really see this round of restrictions affecting my neighbors from going about their lives. They just have to wear a mask while shopping. In other words I'm not surprised at the surge in cases over this winter not only due to the seasonal component of covid but also a new more contagious strain might be floating around in the US for awhile.
