  1. Well that didn't last long Big fluffy flakes to almost nothing in 15 minutes. I guess I'll take my 2-3" and be happy since I didn't expect even an inch.
  2. Flake size really ramped up here, big fluffers floating down and accumulating nicely. Not what I expected here but I'll take it! 24/24/NE2 SN
  3. I'm thinking this will come in cold enough that it should be able to be cleared with a leaf blower. I'm charging up a few batteries
  4. Have fun down there. I'll be cleaning my driveway with a leaf blower
  5. I only got a dusting but it's so nice to see an old skool clipper pass through. Maybe I can break the 20" mark for the season tonight/tomorrow ... ?
  6. Nice little snow showers moving through. It's mostly graupel but it looks good in my "snow lights"
  7. It's kinda nice seeing all this talk about a Clipper but I'll be disappointed if it's more productive on the coast than here in the northern hills.
  8. Yup, final is 12". It ranged from 9" on a southern exposure that saw a fair bit of wind to 14" on car tops and garbage cans. Around the yard on the ground ran from 11 on the flat to 14 on the N side in a shady spot. It looks great, I have 5 foot high snowbanks at the bottom of the driveway for the first time in a few years, the roads are dry already and I didn't run out of beer before I finished shoveling. Good storm! Puts me at 20" for the season
  9. My new board got disturbed so it's useless but I easily have a foot of goo. I'm kinda surprised but I'll take it!
  10. I would've had a real reading for y'all because I finally put out a board for this one but a branch came down and disturbed the whole area where it was Anyway, I'm good with calling it a foot, there was 8" on the flats when I started shoveling and 2 hours later there was another 4" when I got back to where I started. It's still snowing nicely but it's mostly needles and broken flakes and it's not like it was under that crazy backside band. This is some heavy stuff too, shoveling is a full body workout
  11. At 3am it hadn't started yet, by the time I got up a bit before 7 there was 5" on the ground. It's that clumpy stuff that balls up on bushes and trees making it look like more.
  12. I like the 2-12 call. That's pretty much what I said to my wife a few hours ago.
  13. If the EC is right and I only get ~4" and they get a foot or better " down south" they'll be ahead of my seasonal total. That'll sting a little
  14. Ehh, the north trend will bring you back in
  15. They have me at 8-12. Yeah? I'll get the leaf blower ready.
  16. So, does this incoming mess feel like it's gonna be a wet > white 3" slopfest to anyone else? Can we just shoot this one in the ass and move on to spring? I need shit to start leafing out and suck this ground dry not more wetness. #snowornothing! ?
  17. Bite your tongue I'm good with it being 287 and you should be too.
  18. I walked out the hotel door this morning and it's 55°. Not quite what I expect in Chicago in February.
