I'm anxious but I've got nothing to fear, the changeover has been predicted to occur around now for hours. It's not like I'm behind schedule lol. It'll be a fun night once it gets going. This is going to be a truly enjoyable night for you and many others! Enjoy this to the full!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevlon62 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Was not in town but apparently we started as snow up here with some IP. Never any liquid in the mix.Just shoveled out a driveway with what was surprisingly not the heart attack snow I was expecting. Ratios really helped it stack early for a nice head start before the main show tonight.Clearly though, the more intense trowel features seem progged to pass to our south overnight. Hope you guys get nailed with the good stuff down there.Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sciascia Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Still a rainer over here. LOT has been projecting the big snow issues starting at 8 in my area. Hopefully that occurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonger Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Well, expecting 6 - 8 here. Hopefully the changeover comes sooner than anticipated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimillman Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Actually surprisingly dry in the loop. Expecting mostly rain until 10:00 or 11:00 and then we'll see the changeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchaumburgStormer Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Ripping. Looks like a snow globe outside with the wind whipping the flakes under the streetlights. Scanner starting to flicker to life with accidents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjm_888 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Took a peek at the flight radar site and by the looks of it you'd never know there was a storm in NE IL. Looks like business as usual for arrivals and departures at ORD and MDW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveNay Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Was just out to the barn to feed the horses and chickens, and we had three big lightnings and thundersnow. Snow rate and wind isn't really that impressive here though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago Storm Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Numerous reports of 5-7” across the northern tier or so in the LOT CWA from that earlier initial FGEN band. That area will likely be the winner for the area in the end with the head start.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natester Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 What would have been alot worse (in terms of rubbing salt in the wound) is if the cutoff line was in the Cedar Rapids metro, southern Cedar Rapids getting 6+ inches while northern Cedar Rapids getting nada. I take solace that none of Linn County got any snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
