  1. 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.
  2. Radar looking good up in Wisconsin. Should be a fun first event for Chicagoland and surrounding areas.
  3. Been some nice dendrites the past hour after white rain/smaller flakes earlier.
  4. First flakes confirmed here as a snow shower moving through. Was 46 earlier but has dropped back to 38.
  5. Another round of 45-50mph winds on the way for tomorrow. May get a few snow showers late this afternoon which will be nice, but tomorrow's action will miss just east. Nice to get the first flakes of the season though.
  6. Getting 45-50mph southeast winds the past hour or two. Really rocking out there. Nice little soaker today that slowly added up to 0.55".
  7. First flakes still a few weeks (or more) away.
  8. The last few winters it seemed to overhype the intensity of storm systems in the med/long range. Hopefully it's improved on that.
  9. Trending in the other direction now. Looking pretty wussy at this point.
  10. Storm system next Tue/Wed looking interesting. Severe weather looking likely if trends continue.
  11. Today's 0.29" so far brings us up to about 1.7" for event. I'll take it.
  12. Looks like tonight's wave will underperform here but still overall nice event.
  13. 0.52" here so far. Should pick up another 1.5-2.5" through Tuesday. Heaviest looks to arrive Monday night.
  14. We've already had 8 freezes here including several hard ones. No first flakes in sight however.
  15. Seeing snow on the ground from vis for the first time this season. Welcome to November.
  16. Yeah this event was looking like a wimpy progressive sloppy second type setup for this area, so not too disappointed with the < half inch rain. SPC's 2% nader outlook for this whole area yesterday was lol worthy. Much better rains on the way for the Sun-Tue period.
  17. Pretty dramatic change to what we've been seeing the past 8 weeks.
  18. MLI tied the record high today with 84. Only got down to 67 last night/this morning here. As expected a lot of color was stripped from the trees the past few days. Now mostly oaks with the best color.
  19. Looking like widespread 40-50mph southerly winds on Wednesday ahead of the incoming cold front. That should make a big dent in what's left of the fall foliage.
  20. Nice soaker, picked up 1.13 with a few periods of pea size hail.
