Chicago WX Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 ORD just reported 0.26" of precipitation in the last hour alone with the hourly obs. lol, I don't think that's right. Looking at the METARS, 0.19" is recorded between 2:05 and 2:12pm. I mean it's snowing hard, but that would be something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it's snowing hard, but that would be something else. Moral of this snow storm. Tim's pessimistic approach definitely paid off. Definitely a win for the UKMET and NAM and for that matter the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Moral of this snow storm. Tim's pessimistic approach definitely paid off. Definitely a win for the UKMET and NAM and for that matter the GFS. My approach sucks. But yeah, seems the UK especially caught on early to the farther north low placement...though I think even it wasn't far enough north in the end.
