  1. On the edge of the heaviest returns I've seen all winter. Hard to imagine I'd be this excited over a "clipper-lite."
  2. Good burst in McHenry currently. Decent flake size and getting breezy.
  3. even more off-topic, but what is the difference between "pro forecaster" and "meteorologist" on here? also, how do you get this recognition?
  4. We definitely don't have the snowpack Rockford has, but overall the ground remains covered in an average of probably 2" of snow/sleet with only a few patches of grass here and there and some areas deeper (like most of my backyard). I'm grateful and it's been the only saving grace.
  5. No, you seem to be arguing it should be 75 and sunny every day in April and that's nonsensical.
  6. Your point is what? You have very selective memory?
  7. Yes, we had two big snows in April 2019, but the month as a whole averaged above normal temp-wise. Snow in April, even several inches, lasts for a day or two and then it's 70º again. Spring in the Great Lakes isn't supposed to be sustained warmth. Never has been.
  8. It only snowed on Halloween 2019. May 2020 was slightly above normal temp-wise and April 2020 was only slightly below temp-wise.
  9. You'd have to have a winter for it to extend into April. Not to mention, it's next to impossible to have sustained cold and snow in April thanks to the sun angle and longer days alone.
  10. Yeah, and I love it. I can't explain how much I hate summer. Spring is okay, but we don't ever have a real spring. It goes from winter to summer it seems like.
  11. Can't imagine the desire for an above normal spring. it's already going to be 80 + for three months straight, minimum. Move to Florida!
  12. Looking like we might be able to squeeze an inch out tomorrow afternoon/evening in Northern Illinois. This winter, that's a big deal.
  13. Amazing, right? High-lat blocking is going to prevent cutters....blah blah blah. I need to get off this site and all other weather-related sites for a while for my mental health. Won't happen, but it should.
  14. I understand and feel it. I won't bash you.
  15. The sun just came out and we’re above freezing now! lol 0.25” fell and now melting. smdh.
  16. There may be some localized 4" areas, but it's gonna have to really overperform. LOT usually is more on the conservative side so I was surprised by this forecast.
  17. I'm just surprised they went so gung-ho with the 2-4" area considering no models really seem to indicate it.
  18. 1.25" 3 S McHenry It's almost entirely melted now.
  19. 3 miles south of downtown McHenry. 1.25” is pretty much final.
  20. 1.25" here a snowing lightly, with temps slightly above freezing and the sun being up, there won't be anymore accumulation. I'm pleased.
