We'll will ourselves to 10" one way or another

Relying on lake effect didn't do us well last week!

At 9.1" in the Loop, NWS holding up our hope.

Still in a 6-10" point and click zone on the city lakeshore, surprised it's still this high with model trends north.

18Z HRRR projecting a foot and a half over the lake lol

Watching this one from Northbrook, first gusts coming through.

In my third PDS flash flood warning in the last 36 hours, even a slight rain shower fills up the streets here in NoVa at this point. Will be interesting to see what Fred's moisture brings.

1/4-1/3" of ice all over Arlington, non-road surfaces are quite slick tonight! 1

While we're at it... 175mph/903

Winds gusting to the low 50s in Slidell, found a nice parking lot looking south to experience Zetas full effects.

In Slidell, Louisiana, for the storm. Winds approaching tropical storm force but still only through gusts. Should be an interesting evening ahead.

Of note that's the Kuchera ratios and not 10:1, so probably even a "realistic" version of events.
