  1. Hmmm, maybe should have stuck to my original 4-6"
  2. Wow that's quite a bit different than what DVN's disco mentioned early this morning. Guess we'll just split the difference and go with 15:1 lol
  3. I was all aboard the futility train for sure. Taking 3.6" of snow into almost mid Feb, there was a legit shot at attaining the all-time low snowfall with how horrible things had been going. I'm just glad we aren't going to nickel and dime our way to just above the futility record like I had feared.
  4. Looking more like 6-9" now.
  5. Decent probabilities for 8"+ up in Chicago
  6. DVN disco mentioned 15kft dendritic growth zone up to 550mb with relatively light winds throughout that portion of the column. Could lead to LSRs pushing 20:1.
  7. Gonna make a stupid early call for here/QC of 4-6". Think our time is finally due.
  8. Had a T of snow yesterday. MLI a T as well. DVN came in with an impressive 0.2".
  9. Snowing pretty nicely here at the moment with fat dendrites. Starting to stick already. Won't last long but nice to see.
  10. Nice to see model agreement as well. Should be a good sign.
  11. About what it's like watching the models fade away storm after storm.
  12. Just 3 weeks and 2 days till met spring. I'm ready.
  13. Have had a few bursts of freezing drizzle.
  14. I would say this is worse, as if it were wet at least the moisture would be beneficial. The best thing about this winter is there hasn't been any heartbreaks from last minute system shifts, as there's been basically nothing to track.
  15. Still haven't covered the grass here this season. Think our heaviest snowfall so far has been 1.3" lol. Only been briefly white a handful of times. Most pathetic winter I've seen hands down.
  16. Looks like a thin glaze possible here, but heavier precip shunts east, so not too impressed for this area. Perhaps later runs will bump heavier precip back northwest.
  17. MLI and DBQ should cross the 20 inch threshold below normal tomorrow. If Chicago was in this much of a deficit there would surely be a thread dedicated to it.
  18. The Pacific firehose is gonna dump 10-20" of precip in the Sierras of CA over the next 5-10 days. That hasn't happened all winter, so there's definitely a change afoot.
  19. Alright, after I post this I'm gonna stay off the internet for the next 15 days, and assume that what is on the map pic below will in fact happen when we get there.
  20. 6 years ago today MLI hit -33 for a new all-time record low. Hit -27 here that morning. Interestingly, today is also the day we hit 69 degrees back in 1989 for the all-time warmest January temp. I still remember that day, as I played hooky from middle school that day lol.
  21. Nice band parked over us for a good chunk of the morning. Finished with a healthy 1.10" of rain. MLI had 1.41", which set a daily record.
  22. Kind of funny being under a flood watch on the last day of the month with <0.20" precip for the month till now lol. 0.19" so far for this event. Heavy band starting to move in and stall. Still looks like good shot at an inch plus. EDIT: Got excited, thought I heard thunder a sec ago, but looked out and realized it was just the garbage dude banging around out there lol.
  23. Tonight/tomorrow's event should be the best precip event since early November. Looking like a solid chance at an inch of rain.
