Evidently this was in Fargo not too long ago?!

My ride home today the flooding here was no joke!

My life is complete omg

THAT WAS ******* SURREAL. There is so much damage from that tornado. It was huge! Im in shock that a wedge tornado just came through the Chicago metro. I was just north of Darien and the damage is unbelievable. 

The HRRR has this line dying out before it gets here. We’re not even in a watch either? So weird. Wouldn’t be surprised tho, given our luck this year

I’m back in Chicago for awhile and oof, the drought is depressing. I can’t believe the lack of severe weather here, let alone precipitation in general! Hope you’re right Tom. June is usually the best month in Chicago, hopefully we can get something

Official snow total at my apartment was 18.4” (from a friend who measured on her outdoor patio table). My street in particular was under the heaviest band what a crazy year!!

How did @Jayceedo with this? I know she lives kinda near the coast.

Heard a report of a foot in Toledo.

 

This is from a side street by my apartment (there’s a car under there lmao). I’m roughly in between the reports of 14”-18” so I’d say somewhere in there since I’m right on the lake! 
 

Crazy stuff from my neighborhood!!!

My friend sent me this from Wilmette, Illinois. Visibility less than a block for over an hour

Also omg talk about a bullseye lol! The arrow in this graphic literally points to my exact location almost. My area is going to have so much snow otg it’s actually hard for me to even imagine what I’ll be walking into when I get back

Is there an area nearby that measures downtown Chicago? I know ORD is technically Chicago’s measuring station. But if there’s going to be a variance of amounts, hopefully someone can get a measurement near LSD.

I usually do! Haha but I’m actually in Miami right now, where it’s 80 degrees at 7pm. I hope the snow sticks around til I’m gone, I have a feeling the lake effect will pummel my area (Edgewater/Evanston, less than 1/4 mile inland from the lake). 

Anybody guess where we went to see the fluffy flakes last night?

I’m throwing out a guess but we were easily one of the hardest hit here just north of the city, I’d say with the total of 9.5” early this morning we’re definitely somewhere around 12”. Such an awesome storm! Here’s another couple pics from my neighborhood 

There is SO much snow right now! I was supposedly bullseyed both storms. I’m pretty tall (5’9”) and the snow on the sidewalks is almost up to my hips, pics for reference! (Ignore my super awkward pose lmao)

Chicago? Radar looks fantastic for some very heavy snowfall rates there ~9-11pm.

 

Yep!! I’ll go out and take pictures soon

Snowing really hard here in the city! Super low visibility and the wind has picked up. The radar looks awesome too!!!

Nice. What parts? My brother lives a bit south of Raleigh. 

Omg that’s where I’m going! It’s just outside of Raleigh, it’s called Morrisville

Thundersnow sounds awesome! I’m moving to North Carolina in a week, and this would be the best way to close out my past few years in Chicago  

This will be insane on top of the 8” I got 2 days ago! Hope the models continue with this trend 

Lake effect here looks awesome! I’m terrified since it’s so hit or miss but if this verifies we’re going to have a lot of snow when all is said and done! 

I have no idea what to expect here! I saw the HRRR had 13” overtop of me but the RAP has like 5” lol. I’m so confused  

As a former resident of Lincoln, have fun with those roads! They had like the absolute WORST plows of all time there lol. 
 

idk if it’s lake effect, but it’s snowing decently here on the north side of downtown Chicago! 

I’m going 3-6” here in the city. Have fun Nebraska! Take vids and pics

Ew. These trends look yucky for chicago.
