Chicago Storm Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 ORD had 1.20" of precip on the 25th, which broke the record precip amount for the date of 1.06", set in 1908. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILwxchr Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Quad Cities airport up to 18.4" of snowfall this month and for the winter (record). We picked up some light snowfall this morning up here, so maybe add 0.1 or so to that. Very impressive for so early in the season. Not even December 1 yet.....hope we get crushed in December lol.

The 2006 storm, the March 2018 storm, and this one all had very impressive cutoffs. It was pretty cool driving south in the snow free area earlier today, and I could see snow on the hills ahead as I approached the cut off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILwxchr Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Not sure how many people are paying attention to Saturday. There could be some severe weather in this sub-forum, at least parts of Southern IL along with a possible ice/snow event in North Central Iowa. IMBY I look to see mainly lame ole rain. The ole trustworthy 84 hour NAM already showing some CAPE building into Southern IL at 18z on Saturday. I have a feeling this may be a tad too far south based on what the GFS is showing. The Euro has it even more northwest with a surface low of 984mb near Omaha, NE.. Seems like perhaps the Euro wants to occlude the low faster. Either way I think we see quite a bit of rainfall, which on top of the deep snow pack we just got (heavily water filled too) could spell some flooding issues. Here are a few graphics off the latest NAM showing severe potential (SBCAPE, 0-1km SRH etc). Not to often you expect severe storms on almost December 1st in Illinois. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Another day, another measurable snow in November. Actually some decent looking bands in northern IL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone77 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Had a burst of light snow about a half hour ago. Wasn't expecting any tonight so sort of surprised me. Snow settled a little more today. Down to about 8". Temp got down to 4 above this morning, which is the coldest of the season so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdIowPitMsp Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Ended up with around 2" last night. Officially 2.3" at MSP, which more then doubles our season total to date. This ended up over-preforming as the hi-res models kept spitting out an inch or less. If we can nudge the weekend system just a tad further north might be in line for a decent snowpack by early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geddyweather Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Counting today, I will have seen a trace or greater of snow for four straight days in my little corner of NWOH. Not an impressive stat by any means, but intriguing for the month of November. Two days of system snow, then two days of LES off of Lake Michigan thanks to the combination of the warm water and strong NW flow. Monday: system snow and wind from plains blizzard moving NE = 1.2" accum Tuesday: LES = 0.5" accum Wednesday: early morning LES = DAB accum Thurs: burst of system snow from quickie shortwave = DAB-0.25" accum (eyeballed) Now with the warm front approaching, this little streak will end, but still some oddball stats from what has been one of the snowier Novembers in recent recollection. Not because of totals per se, but because of frequency. That said, I am intrigued by the potential for severe weather over the weekend. Threat seems to be coming northward into Central IN and further improvement of the thermodynamic setup could lead to a SLGT over that region later according to SPC.

michsnowfreak Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Assuming it's cloudy tomorrow in no more snow falls, DTW will finish November with 6.7" of snow, good enough for 18th snowiest November. Final sky cover of 9.3 out of 10. there were 0 clear days, 3 partly cloudy days, and 27 cloudy days lol. I'll finish with 6.1" of snow imby and never had to shovel (I did shovel some slush once, just to play with the shovel because Im so ready). Snow fell on 14 days but no more than 1.5" on any given day. Time for my nature to give a little more at a time in December. Today 0.2" snow was like white sawdust.

cyclone77 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Busy week for the DVN office. Blizzard on Sunday, with a foot plus of snow. Now a tor threat in the southern/southeastern cwa tomorrow afternoon. I'd likely chase this if I wasn't going to be stuck at work. Would be pretty cool to bag a tor 6 days after experiencing a blizzard. Even seeing a sup would be quite nice. The final concern in a very busy short term fcst, is with migrating triple point and southwest dry in-wrapping tongue of air Sat afternoon. These features, along with very high shear values and even marginal CAPE`s could fuel a sctrd low-topped supercell event from eastern MO and up through central and western IL. If these processes can make it far enough to the northwest, the DVN southeastern CWA/Burlington on southeastward, may be at risk for some of these storms to skirt acrs. All severe weather threats may come into play, even a December tornado. Erosion of snow cover and it`s feedback effects in the southeast will be a big player on how far northwest the stronger storms get or for a sfc based threat. Otherwise elevated storms may still produce a hail threat. ..12.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
