  1. Decembers sure are lol worthy anymore. We've definitely established a tradition the past several seasons. Exciting times ahead..
  2. Glad we finally shook this worthless northwest flow CAD regime. 50s tomorrow and Sunday. If it ain't gonna snow then give me warmth fo sho
  3. Pretty cool sat pic from this morning showing the snow squall trails from last night.
  4. MLI with 0.4" for the season so far, and a departure of -3.1". Dubuque with 0.6", a departure of -4.1".
  5. Looks like a chance for some flurries next Wednesday, and maybe a rainer around the 16th. Looking pretty benign through xmas.
  6. Cedar Rapids ASOS gusted to 66mph, MLI just hit 58mph. Just roaring out there.
  7. Getting close to wind warning criteria, with gusts pushing 55mph. Had a few sprinkles earlier with frontal passage. EDIT: DVN just gusted to 56mph. EDIT2: Chicago Midway apt just gusted to 58mph.
  8. Haven't been above freezing since last Wednesday. Should finally go back above tomorrow afternoon.
  9. MLI/DVN both finally got their first measurable snowfall today, both with 0.4". Picked up 0.3" here.
  10. Coldest temp of the season so far this morning with 10.
  11. There are many of us on the outside of this clipper pattern though. It's early and of course our time will eventually come, but this feels like a giant waste of cold for some of us in the sub.
  12. Had a burst of flurries mid-morning before it cleared off.
  13. The clipper next Wednesday could be decent from WI down to MI/OH. Looks like that's the only clipper we have to work with in this northwest flow regime.
  14. At least the cold northwest flow will bring mood flakes to those fortunate to be downwind of the GL.
  15. Yeah December is a throwaway month anymore. Guess we'll wait till January per usual.
  16. Looks like clipper train may be most impactful in ne half of sub. Those of us in the southwest half
  17. I was overly optimistic a few days ago so now I'm gonna go to the other extreme lol.
  18. Sat clipper looks weak and way south now. May be waiting a few to several weeks for MLI/DVN's first accumulating snowfall unless we can get a surprise ripple or clipper to pop up in the flow.
  19. After a nice/brief trend yesterday things have trended back towards a non-event for the central/western sub for the Wed system. Next thing to track may be a clipper next weekend, but not looking too impressive. Hope we don't waste this cold stretch and then have to sit out 2-4 weeks of warmth in the heart of December like usual.
  20. Changed the oil in the snow blower this morning, let's go!
  21. Euro seems to be baby stepping the Wed/Thu system back into the right direction. Hope trends continue..
  22. Sort of an interesting event here (at work) on the western fringe of this thing. We kept getting pulses of light snow for a minute or two, and then not a flake to be seen. That went on for over an hour. Up in the sky you could see well defined cloud features from overhead and points west, and just a solid sheet of gray from overhead and to the eastern horizon. Kind of a cool experience.
