  1. Congrats to the central IL and IN peeps. 3.2" here, which is pretty good. Brings my total to 22.0" for the season. A phenomenal start. See you all sometime in January, when hopefully the next good/great snowfall pattern emerges...
  2. Rip city here. Everything has gone to sh*t. Looks like we got lucky and was far enough “south” to get into some good banding. Probably won’t last long, but it’s nice to have received…
  3. 1.0" of pure fluff here overnight. Where did that come from? Hopefully we can pull something out of thin air again tomorrow. 1-2" is probably the top end, but with temps in the single digits, well, arctic appeal for sure.
  4. Need 2.2" to hit 20" for the season. A couple of days ago, thought that was a lock between the two waves. Now, better chance at not seeing a flake from both. Pulling for the folks in central IL/IN. Hope these systems overachieve for you.
  5. 8.5" final here. If we didn't have an afternoon lull, dd's might have been in play. Regardless, 13.9" of snow in November IMBY. Pretty remarkable. And looks like a nice little refresher coming tomorrow afternoon/evening. What a start to the season.
  6. Got home from work about 30 minutes ago, which was a blast BTW, and measured 8.0". Still snowing really well currently, but time is running out. Awesome event for November.
  7. Man, I hope you're right. What's crazy is you've got a good chance pull a 20" month (at least)...in November. Awesome start to the season.
  8. Nice work. Caveat on the COOP "accuracy" for sure. Some sketchy measurements in past years. Regardless, this is definitely a November for the books around here, assuming this storm acts as expected. With that said, gonna narrow my range a bit and go 6-8" final call for here. General consensus QPF numbers in the 0.60-0.80" range, ratios pretty close to 10:1, etc etc. Going to be a fun day to work tomorrow.
  9. 4-8/6-10" looks like a decent range for here. Pretty good agreement amongst the ensembles of a range of 0.60-0.80" total QPF. Not really worried about p-type, and if it changes to snizzle, it should be after 95% of the storm has done its damage. Regardless, need 4.6" to hit double digits for November, which is pretty freaking fantastic.
  10. 4.7" the final here. Total since yesterday was 5.4" with the Sunday morning snowfall (melted in the afternoon). Last gasp snow was really ripping, tacking on an additional inch in 30 minutes. Pretty pleased considering it's November 10, but to just miss a foot+ by 13 miles or so, eh... EDIT: report of 9.0" in Iroquois county to the south.
  11. Jackpot. Congrats. Snowing hard here right now with this last gasp.
  12. Totally different set up, but the results kinda reminds me of this one, Feb 24, 2016. RC has fond memories. https://www.weather.gov/lot/2016feb24_snow
  13. Measured 3.5" at 4:00 am. Still snowing, but fairly light. Just to put the put the Momence total in context, they're 13 miles to the east of IKK. Will be some varying storm totals from west to east in the county, to say the least.
  14. Wow, awesome. This one just missed MBY. I mean I'll take what I got, but a foot...
  15. 3.5" here at 4:00 am. Looking at radar since this started, the eastern half of the county (east of IKK) will do best. But yeah, only a handful of "pure" LES events that dropped 3"+ here, that I can recall. Last one was in the winter of 2013-14 (Jan 21-22).
