dmc76 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 All u negative nancies from SEMI who whine about elevation....In Macomb county picking a Xmas tree in Shelby. Accumulating just fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCNYILWX Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Definitely biggest flakes of the event here in southeast Naperville. Maybe closing in on 3" on unpaved surfaces but I'll defer to Gilbertfly's measurements since I live about 5 mins from him. Really no accumulation on my street other than some spotty slush.

Geos Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Lake enhancement doing it's job here. Just cleared off the snowboard at 8.9". Pockets of 30dbz coming ashore. Noticing the colder air working in from the west - rates should pick up for a lot of you in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Hello all. Looking forward to watching this thing rip this afternoon in northern Indiana. HRRR showing 40dbz for a few hours with 0.5" of QPF in 3 hours. Cross section showing some really strong EPV aloft for a few hours this afternoon. Dare I say I will be looking out for thundersnow? Not having to work today, eh? I hope you're right about the thundersnow. That would be cool, although I may be a little too far south. I've only experienced it a few times.

HRRR showing 40dbz for a few hours with 0.5" of QPF in 3 hours. Cross section showing some really strong negative EPV aloft for a few hours this afternoon. Dare I say I will be looking out for thundersnow? The good stuff! Wouldn't be surprised, got a few reports of thundersnow in the death band last night.

extremewx52 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Nah. I am at work. I'm the guy turning the radar on periodically for 1 scan at a time. Not having to work today, eh?

IWXwx Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Nah. I am at work. I'm the guy turning the radar on periodically for 1 scan at a time. Lol. I was wondering why it would work for a scan then not work again. That answers that question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Looks like you're getting slammed now on Mt. Geos per KLOT. Just posted that amount on your page. Large snow flakes coming down in steady waves. Visibility drops to 1/8 mile at times. Only seen one car drive by since 8am! Side roads at least are a mess. Few tree branches have broken off this morning also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveNay Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Still nothing heavy here. Slow and steady though. Also, can anyone confirm that my web cam is appearing in my signature, or is the link broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Good to see you checking in. Congrats on the snow. I'd imagine that's it's not much fun to work in though. I may actually get 2-3" out of this. IWX expanded their advisory areas to include Huntington County. Its somewhat challenging...but fun. Big flake poundage here right now. Pretty awesome. Good luck over there my friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 This will be the heaviest snowfall I've seen in November Ginx. I'm sure most people in this area haven't seen this heavy of snowfall either before Thanksgiving. (Outside of snow belts) Trying to capture the flakes - pic doesn't do them justice.

Baum Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Snow seems to be gaining steam out in Glen Ellyn. Was a little disappointed at the slop storm I was looking at earlier, but snow seems to be taking on a less wet nature in the last half hour or so which is allowing it to accumulate a bit better. Looks like we are going to spend a good while in the deformation band. Heck of a storm for mid-late November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
