  1. Still doesn't change the fact that it has trended worse for us each run. Monday evening it was looking much nicer. Even yesterday morning. My concerns are the marginal (at best) temperatures and if we don't see steady snow, I could easily see a tenth or two falling and then melting so on and so forth. I have hopes the pattern gets better after this, but I'm not as excited as I had been even last week. Cary's 15" at ORD call by March 1 is looking good.
  2. The clouds will help. Of course, your snowpack is a bit deeper than mine. We've been above freezing since 5 am.
  3. Could you elaborate as to how the trends have been GOOD for N Illinois? Or do you just prefer to name-call like a child?
  4. Lots of melting going on today - won't have much more than piles and drifted areas left by Thursday night, I bet.
  5. The Canadian has shifted NW. Heaviest snows over Eastern Iowa, NW Illinois, and SW Wisconsin......you know, the places that have gotten all the snow to date. smdh.
  6. NAM joins the Canadian with a few inches in N IL Thursday-Friday.
  7. So large swaths of Texas and Oklahoma have had more snow this winter than Northern Illinois. Depressing AF. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for them, but this is unbearable.
  8. Yes, I'm quite confident most everyone else appreciated the sun! lol Hope you're right about Wednesday. Concerned everything will get wiped out and then it will be cold and brown. The worst!
  9. I was really hoping to retain it prior to the colder pattern, but looks like whatever is left will likely melt almost completely by Thursday. If we don't get any snow with push of cold air after that, it will be worst case scenario - cold and brown. Euro gives some hope of at least a couple inches, we'll see. Still a long ways off. What a ridiculous dry spell, but that's been par for the course here. We've had very long periods of dry weather since June.
  10. Todays forecast in NE IL was a huge bust.
  11. Well, I was quite surprised and quite unhappy to see the sun out this morning. Temp already shot up to just shy of 36º. Forecast was for 31º and clouds. I need to keep what little snow I have.
  12. We just had some clearing and the sun is visible through higher clouds and the temp jumped to 34º. The forecasts this week haven't been good temp wise at all. The clouds are wreaking havoc. Also, I want the clouds, temps are too warm for the sun to come out, too.
  13. Was that today?! I haven't seen the sun and blue skies this year......
  14. just had a good burst of snow with the trough moving through, got in the "yellow" on the super res radar. came down pretty good for about 5-10 minutes. solid coating.
  15. Looks like a squall line coming down from Wisconsin. lol
  16. As long as I can retain much of my snow cover, I'll be okay until it snows again.
