Nov 28-30th Post Turkey Day Winter Storm

[Chicago Storm]

8.4" at ORD as of midnight.

8.0" at RFD.

This snowstorm is now tied for the 5th largest on record in November for Chicago.

Last little burst coming through here, what a lovely storm.

Flew into Bishop from Nashville this evening (pretty smooth flight given the circumstances). Probably under 2" on the ground at FNT when we landed around 9:45 but boy was it a slick drive home. Took an hour to get to Waterford from the airport via 75 and Dixie Hwy. Kept it around 40mph the whole way to Exit 93; two tracks at best on the interstate and snow-covered mainline roads. Still barfing snow out, NWS DTX reported 3.1" at 1AM in White Lake, I'll go out and measure in a bit after this titillating ND/Stanford game 

[Chicago Storm]

8.7" here at home as of midnight.

Making up for the slow onset by avoiding the dry slot.  Good night!

Still going here in Kenosha at 1am. LES adding to the totals. Wind was ripping earlier and was actually kinda worried about my flag pole. My bird feeder isn’t doing well lol. But now it’s so peaceful. What a great fucking long duration storm this has been.

Cool little storm! East view from Willis

[HillsdaleMIWeather]

Final total here is 9 inches. Very memorable storm, thankfully with less blowing and drifting than our last big November storm

What a great event! A couple of night time shots from around where I live.

Still snowing and winds have increased significantly. Saw two accidents happen yesterday, typical snow fender bender and another in the ditch.  Widespread win for this board, the Monday system looks more likely to over achieve than under, liking the trends on the latest cycle.  

[Chicago WX]

8.5" final here. If we didn't have an afternoon lull, dd's might have been in play. Regardless, 13.9" of snow in November IMBY. Pretty remarkable. And looks like a nice little refresher coming tomorrow afternoon/evening.  What a start to the season.

Heated discussion over snow depth around 1pm with my son  

[Mogget]

More than 24 hours of snow—it’s still going at [almost] 6 AM.  Next step:  get out of bed and clean the driveway…

One last weenie band rolling down to cap this event off

Models did well with the incoming band, lets see how they do with tomorrows setup.

I had a blast putting up Christmas lights all afternoon in SN and bursts of +SN.

I measured 6.9" at 11 PM (EST), with light snow still falling, but must have had some mixing issues after midnight, causing some melting/compaction as there was only 5.5" at 7 AM CoCoRaHS measure.

All in all, a good storm to track with nice results.

On to another possible 2-4 tomorrow night!

[jlauderdal]

The incoming band has been inentsifying the last hour, not going to shut down the city but the pattern appears very favorable, expecting good things tomorrow afternoon.  4.5 Downers Grove.

[kevlon62]

That incoming band was great to wake up to.

[OrdIowPitMsp]

3.9” at MSP

6.5” WFO Chanhassen. 
 

Measuring approximately 4.5” imby. 

Great spread the wealth event for our subforum.

Measured just over 7” here in the east metro (Woodbury)

Still snowing lightly, but at 9.4” for the storm 

[DocATL]

Of course this band comes ripping through right after I cleared the driveway.

[cyclone77]

Pretty much a best case scenario for a share the wealth storm system.  Nearly every location within our sub was able to get in on some decent snowfall.  That's really hard to do.

Final total here is 10.5".  DVN with 10.6", MLI at 9.2" (1" more than all of last season), and DBQ had 12.3".

[Spartman]

Only got 0.6" of snow, only to be melted away overnight

Its ripping now, visibility 1/4 of mile.  Everything that was cleared, is snow covered.

Woke up this morning to a foot in Lake Forest. Best winter storm since Feb 2021 hands down!

[hawkeye_wx]

My total is 11.0".  This storm had a lot of good qualities.  One negative is it was mostly light to moderate snow, with only a couple brief bursts of heavy rates, which is why I was not able to get to a foot.

[nvck]

temp never really got below 34 here last night for any of the flurries to stick, then a changeover to rain stopped any hopes of accumulations. Still, really fun storm to track and I wasn't really expecting much down here anyways.

[michsnowfreak]

The storm was disappointing here due to marine air and bad ratios on the far east side. Although with a low track well west in late November its not a surprise. Northwest suburbs towards Ann Arbor had 4-6". Some areas of west and mid Michigan had 6-8". I had 3.1" but compacted to about 2" of wet cement. I finish November at 5.7". DTW had 3.6", finishing November at 5.9".

It was certainly a spread the wealth for the western sub tho. 

Pic shows last night vs this morning.
