I got about 12" accumulated at my house, but that's not really accurate because I am in a "blow zone" so I'm sure a lot of the snow continued on....

But... I've been stuck in the house for a couple days now and I'm really hoping it doesn't snow any more tonight!

If you are travelling by snowblower, better put it in 6th gear and set the throttle to rabbit!

Tom Skilling-Snow falling within 150 miles of Chi. It reaches the city 5-7PM--sooner west suburbrs. Current thinking: Around 3" totals before switch to frz driz/snowflurry mix toward morn & Tue. Visibilities locally 1/4 mile in northern Iowa in this snow. 2-3" down around Sioux Falls, SD. GFS remains aggressive on late wk system-but Euro sends it south. Will be digging into that.

Again from Tom Skilling... And the NNW wind direction is really bad news for Michigan City.

A new cover of snow is on the way! Chi's biggest snow (2-4") in 15 days due Tues. A big lake snow headed for sections of IN snow belt too! Patches of snow arrive sections Chi area Tue's pre-dawn then build into area wide snow Tue AM rush. Hviest IN snows: Tue nite-Wed nite. Some lake enhancement of snow lakeside counties of IL Tue-but full fetch NNW winds deliver hviest lake snow sections LaPorte/Porter Cos. IN

This is about the expected weather system looking like it will be here Tue or Wed.

Tom Skilling
With several days still to go to main snow event, overnight & AM model runs remain bullish on snow HERE. Latest GFS kicks out 0.84" water equivalent. An average of precip tallies from a range of models & model runs averages out to 0.70"--with the spread running from 0.25 up to 1.56". BUFKIT snow/water ratio estimates off past 2 GFS runs come in at 15 to 1. This suggests a big snow is a growing possibility.

Doing the math, that works out to about 2 feet of snow.

Tom Skilling
Blizzard watch issued by the NWS later Tuesday through Wednesday. First
round of snow with several inches accumulation to develop Monday afternoon & night--then taper to lighter snow in bursts Tuesday morning. The main event threatens later Tuesday, Tuesday night and well into Wednesday. Peak winds & heaviest snowfall to occur then.

Tom Skilling
Wouldn't be surprising, given prospects for lake enhancement of snowfall for as many as 18 hours of the storm's snow, to see local 20"+ tallies lakeside counties if current trends continue--and all models are solidifying behind this line of reasoning--a development which lends confidence to any snow forecast.

It's my coworker Lisa's fault. She is in her early 20's and does not remember any major blizzards. At the beginning of winter, she said, "I wish we would have blizzard like they had in the 70's. I hear the stories from my parents, aunts, & uncles, and I want a blizzard like that to happen." I told her to take it back, but obviously she didn't. Brat!
