Got down to 6 at the house. Saw as low as 3 on the drive in to work.  
 

This will be the first big test of sun angle season. Wall to wall sunshine vs mid 20s high temps. Will it melt the 1” of snow that drifted onto my driveway

Back edge of the defo band moving through here.  Gonna go out and measure shortly.  Drive home from work went better than expected 

Abour 4.5” total.  2.5” of it was in the defo band from about 430 PM to 8

Looks like a good chance that areas south of I-80 will get skunked in the upcoming regime.  Better chances the farther north you go.

you could have posted this at any point during the winter and it would be true

flurries starting up on the SW side of Madison

the snow has been trending later as well.  This used to look like a morning show here but now it looks like the majority of the snow will fall after noon

0z GFS continues the very slow SE shift with that model

18z GFS is holding strong with its north and stronger solution.  18z Euro is definitely caving to drier and a bit more south

has always been weak and south...no? 

yeah but they are even more south now.  before the northern edge of the defo band was around MSN.  Now it's Janesville.

18Z NAMs say wagons south

GFS continues to give S WI over 12" on kuchera ratios and over 7" in positive snow depth change.  Can't see how this will be a warning criteria storm here.  Looks like a slight SE trend on the Euro over the past few runs

Will this be the answer to N Illinois' prayers?  Will it hit the DBQ-MSN-OSH corridor again?  will it get sheared out and go far SE and weak?  Stayed tuned here for the answers

Time 2 jackpot

Madison got 4.8” of snow and the temp never went below 33 yesterday 

still at 36 well after the storm has ended here.  Arctic air has been completely absent behind ever storm system this winter besides the pre Christmas storm

4.8” with snow slowing down. Not looking forward to the upcoming shoveling 

2.7" of pure concrete so far.  been a little over an inch an hour since it transitioned to snow

Yeah it’s been coming down big league here since about 830.  At least a couple inches on the ground and the wind has picked up tremendously.  Had sleet for a couple hours before that and roads were ice covered

The return of cad, we hate to see it

at least the sun will be out

up to the upper 40s.  Looking like we'll do this again early next week

looks like MSN is reeling this one in.  Partying like it's 2007-2009 again
