You will get a window of a few weeks where the pattern lines up and provides enough cold air for some snow. Few if any will accurately predict with any long term accuracy when that will happen but it will. Unfortunately that seems to happen more in the early spring lately.

Last two years would have been bad stats wise if you weren't bailed out by anamolous Oct. and November snows.

That is disappointing

Bring thread, bring needle...oh yeah if you have any cold air bring that too

Rain/snow line around ORD.lol.

Wonder if vaccine roll out is going to be delayed for various reasons. Trump administration supposedly not buying enough doses from Pfizer when given the chance over the summer, raw material issues for the tubes in terms of purity etc..Would not be surprised if widespread vaccinations of the general public aren't pushed back months. Instead of Fauci hoping April its more late summer and fall. Also full immunity benefits not received till 2-3 weeks after 2nd dose. Looking at 2 months per person to effectively see vaccine effect. Could be like the old line everyone who needs a test can get one back in March/April. Saw how that worked out

Euro has bias to overamp systems

They should only run that at the very end of the month. CFSv2 is in auto red mode till then.

Are outpatient clinics included in the hospital numbers? Just covid tested for a colonoscopy screening

Euro magic

Instead of low cutting over Cedar Rapids looks to move over Waukegan on the 12Z

Trends look better for your area

++EPO was the crusher last winter. If it stays that way again this winter is toast. Think it swung negative last spring. Good times

Just file a law suit against the lab to overturn the result

I think that maybe a reasonable estimate. By spring if new cases stay at this rate you might be approaching 40% exposed by the time more widespread vaccinations start to occur

Surprised ORD had 61 days of snow last winter. Although at least half those days were a trace

Does it snow 60-70 days a winter in the lower great lakes without LES?

Landlocked continental climate between two mountain ranges to funnel cold air in

Its just seasonal negativity. Its easy to be positive when all you need is a fan to blow cold air and it starts snowing

You'll get your 2 week window in March or April. Then we can discuss sun angle and the difficulty in keeping your snow cover

Expected the warmth. Not so much the BN precip

It is confusing. That study stated we had 5-8X the number of infections unreported back in September. Then they thought upwards of 53 million may have been exposed based on confirmed cases of around 8 million. Now with confirmed numbers around 13.6 million and 4 million in November alone you could argue a much larger percentage of people have already had it.

It will in late March and April. Kind of like Trubisky and the Bears scoring points and gaining yards in garbage time

Do you somehow filter the people who have already had Covid. They have antibodies and/or memory cells in the immune system. Newer data suggests longer immunity for those perhaps over a year. Should they be put in the back of the vaccination line?

I Just expect Decembers to be lame. Maybe a couple week window where the pattern evolves just right to get some snow and colder temps during the winter. Winter is just 30-45F temps with bouts of rain and light snow. You add up all the 1-3" inchers and wind up with 20-35" sometime in late April. This year you don't even have the abnormal snows of Oct. and Nov. you had the last 2yrs around ORD.
