homedis Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I just landed at ORD. Nothing happening here currently. ORD is in a weird spot rn. I’m 10 miles north in Northbrook and the ground already has a dusting with snow falling at a decent rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILSNOW Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 same here in Buffalo Grove nice dusting pretty quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchaumburgStormer Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Solid light snow continues to fall. Around an inch on the ground. My second kiddo is scheduled to be delivered by induction on Monday morning. Hoping he holds off, as I am not real thrilled with the idea of us (plus all the other moving parts) having to be out and about today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radtechwxman Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 This band near and north of 74 has been dumping nicely. Measured 5-6in here so far. The band is kind of oscillating around but still snowing at a decent clip. Hrrr/rap showing an additional 5-7in. Hope that's right and I will have my first double digit snow in years!

fluoronium Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 ILX adds another county to the WSW. Judging by the recent HRRR runs, they will have to add the last two northern counties also...

I was wondering the same, the axis has moved north of I-70 in Indiana & Ohio looking like for the rest of the day and I think it was supposed to stay south of it. Anyone know if that massive dry slot over KY and southern IN/OH is going to fill back in? BTW - Just under 2" so far IMBY on the SE side of Dayton.

There could be a little, but the thermodynamic setup is marginal so we are talking about a minimal contribution at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Up to 4 here. Still light to moderate snow, dry slot not here yet. Hoping we can add another 2 or 3 as the upper system swings east later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoalCityWxMan Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Snowing pretty heavily at the moment, there’s been some decent banding between here and Pontiac this morning. Hard to believe it’s going to snow for another 12+ hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Eyeballing about a 1/2" so far. Better returns not too far to the south. So close yet so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago WX Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Pounding. I smell an overachiever, relative to my expectations anyways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCIWxGuy Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Up to 4.7". Frustrating to see that heavy band from Pontiac to the Quad Cities sit 5 miles to my south, but we're still way higher than expectations. We probably end up in the 6-8" range, and leaning toward the higher end of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Returns filling back in south of I70 in IN. If we can keep it snowing for another 12 hours definite over achiever here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuanis Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Really coming down up here! Surprisingly earlier than I thought and heavier than I expected. Wasn’t sure we’d get much more than flurries, but it’s accumulating well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuanis Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Roads already snow covered and a mess up here - nothing at all was pretreated as nothing was really expected. Grass is just about covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 1.7" here in Huntington as of 1 PM (Eastern time). I'm expecting 3" in the northern part of the county with 5" in the southern part since the models have consistently showed our area on the northern fringe of the heavier amounts.
