I didn’t realize the scale of the streak in the 1870s and 1880s. Is measurement error a possible blame there?

Good practice for April

A tie for the least snowiest February is in serious jeopardy this evening/tonight.
Luckily, I'm working...
we should still get warmest or near there I imagine
-
Yea this is gonna be shattered
-
Gotta think we make a run for top 3 in both warmest and least snowy categories.

Easily redeeming part of this winter was going to Michigan City for the NE Indiana lake effect event. Glad I did it

I think this is one of the first times I’ve seen them unable to groom trails in the UP. I’m headed to the Tug Hill this weekend for some fun but even there riding is very limited

Maybe the lake will warm up and we can deal with those fun problems again later in the month

Sidewalks and side roads are awful. Ironically they are the only thing with ice accumulation since I guess the surface of things like tree branches and parking signs and cars not sustained cold enough. However in my opinion makes it more dangerous. Very rare to see it like this here
-
It’s really bad out. Side streets and sidewalks totally iced over. Could barely walk the dog. If this continues overnight it’s going to be really dangerous for tomorrow morning commute and I don’t think people really get it

Sidewalks very slick downtown. Can only imagine what it’s like at home

Had moderate snow when I left Wicker this morning that was beginning to accumulate on untreated surfaces. At the office appears to be light freezing drizzle and sleet
-
It’s always challenging to accumulate ice in the metro but given how cold it’s been and with the immediate lakeshore freezing, I could see 0.1-0.3” accumulating. Tuesday morning commute could be rough

Looks awful through 1st week of Feb. Euro gets 40-50 degree temps into northern Alberta

We did get an all in storm total of 16" in Chesterton. It appears the heaviest last night was far enough west of the county line that there's a relative gap just west of where you are. Out of curiosity, if you drive through there, interested if it's around a foot in the Town of Pines/Beverly Shores area.

Back in Chicago now unfortunately. There looked to be 8-12” in Pines area when we drove back on Route 20.
Props to the town of Michigan City for getting roads passable. A storm like this when growing up in northern New Jersey would have shut everything down for 48 hours

Bo knows me lol. I did not pay much attention to that band as we had back to back days with snow here (2.8 + 2.3) plus I worked. I knew the models were cranking out a lot of Lake effect. But I did not pay attention to the results. was wondering how widespread those 30-inch plus totals were.
Mostly in northern Laporte. Once we crossed into Porter county amounts quickly dropped to ~6”

Incredible! How isolated was it?
Streets were pretty empty when we first got there. Whiteout conditions for the drive in

Are things pretty accessible? I have 4-wheel drive but it won't make through 2ft.
Yea it’s accessible around the town. We initially tried to get into the National Park area but those roads were impassable

Definitely worth the hour drive
