Thundersnow12 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I think there's a good chance that LOT expands the advisory all the way into Chicago and possibly NW IN (can't even rule out some isolated warning amounts in the cwa). Amounts may be borderline in some areas but there looks to be a period of 1-2" per hour type rates possible and coinciding with morning rush. The hi-res/other stuff supports it. I'd think but the update from Krein at 9pm was pretty bleh but can't expect from him...need a good morning AFD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 I'm interested in Alek's obs tomorrow. This is a good case with a late season/not really cold event and I'm curious if the rates will be able to overcome the warm pavement/overall urban effects over there.

DAFF Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Sounds like a great little clipper. Wish we all could of had some accumulations, here in Windsor a cold morning frost covers everything. I must admit while reading the reports and snow observations my heart was getting anxious thinking about the excitement of snow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
