  1. Obviously the lake can enhance totals, that's not my point, My point is areas in NE IL that end up north of the main band have that as a cushion while inland areas don't. Hence why I'd prefer not to have the E/SE track of the Euro. I'm not worried one way or the other at this point. It's still quite a ways out and I'm not planning on riding every model run like last time.
  2. Euro looks somewhat similar to what happened with the last storm in N IL. There will be a large area that gets less snow while the lake helps others out. That's of course taking the run verbatim and there's no reason to do that, but if that run transpired, I'd be in a bad mood. lol I really prefer a more east-west orientation.
  3. Hard to believe a storm this winter looks good for Iowa!
  4. Cary and I don't live in Cook or Lake. lol
  5. This snow today isn't going to add up to much of anything. At least we've had more snow than Fairbanks, Alaska, this month, I guess.
  6. We can't even get slop at this point. I can't believe I moved out here for this! lol
  7. As I figured, those high ratios did not pan out here. Often, there was more graupel than snow falling. Getting actually flakes now, of course, probably not more than 1/2" left to fall. Quick measurement on my patio showed 2.75". Need to shovel the drive later and will take a few measurements to see if that is representative, but I can guarantee there isn't 5-8" out there.
  8. Yep, probably until morning per Twitter. Never fails.
  9. 0.25" here this morning, all falling from around 8 to 9 am. Wasn't expecting a big total, by any means, but the models had been ticking up all day yesterday. Dry air won out.
  10. And most are completely out of practice to boot.
  11. That wind is really blowing this evening, we've got blowing snow, and temp is now up to 29ª after 5º this morning and a slow and steady climb throughout the day.
  12. 24 hours? I'll get excited after it's started! lol
  13. I'm not surprised, I knew you got it good. Well, I'm a bit surprised, 4" is a lot, but I figured at least 3"! Lucky dog!
