  1. 3.7” out there so far. Heavy rates but flake size is definitely impacted by the wind and lack of deep DGZ
  2. subsidence got filled in quickly and it's ripping out there, winds have been picking up from the north as well
  3. hoping that band over Janesville can shift nw just enough to help us jackpot this one, will be a close call
  4. gonna be a tightrope to get all my driveway/sidewalk clearing done before conditions become completely awful outside
  5. stared in horror at the dry slot when I woke up but we only got down to flurries here and already picking back up. 2.3" with the early morning WAA. the main TROWAL feature should start impacting us shortly.
  6. unsurprisingly the CAMs are moving SE this evening
  7. some of the Hi-Res CAMs keep daytime snow around here much lower and accumulations only reaching 5-7" in total. did some model sounding investigation and one main difference is much weaker omega in the CAMs. Verbatim the NAMs would give us a really good chance at thundersnow. One negative factor is that after the initial 3 hour burst the DGZ gets really shallow due to strong WAA and it doesn't really recover until the very tail end.
  8. 18z NAM drops 5.4" between 6 and 9 AM tomorrow. if we're gonna do it, lets do it full NAM style
  9. full sunshine right now. happy to sneak this in before the next system starts spreading high clouds in
  10. Final call of 9”. Wind is going to get very nasty tomorrow afternoon
  11. Snow starting here. Will have to see if the squall makes it up here. Low will be weakening as the night goes on
  12. should jackpot this and may even jackpot Friday's storm. will get pics of the upcoming glacier
  13. hoping for some sunshine. This is the most climatologically favored time of the year for this cold so not expecting any records
  14. it's crazy how underdispersive the GEFS is compared to the EPS
  15. 6.2” at the house. 5.7” at the airport. Lots of drifting this morning
  16. Going to have mountains of snow beside the driveway after this week
  17. Hoping for some sunshine with this bitter cold stretch upcoming. Definitely makes the days more tolerable
  18. It’s been 31 all night here despite gusty N winds and 6” of fresh snow. Antecedent airmass isn’t going to shove this one south
  19. a hair under 5" now. best rates of the event are done. expecting another inch or two before midnight
  20. looks like Champaign hit their lowest pressure ever. Ripping nicely with some healthy rates. around 4" now
  21. Snow accumulating on all roads now. Heavier defo band is setting up over the area. A hair under 3” so far
  22. 31/29 here. should be off to the races once it starts. would expect snow to begin in 2 hours or so. models have backed off morning snow a bit here but really get things cranking with the defo band in the afternoon
