after the last band I posted above- it's all pixie dust after that. Still an impressive ( for this over performer ) 4.6" through 9pm. Might just nickle/dime the way to 5"+.

The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.

I finished with a nice 3.2", certainly more than I expected.  The liquid total is only 0.12", so the models were not too dry.  The ratio over-performed.

Much needed after this year's slow winter. Just shy of 3" in IC.

Glad to see ya scored and reeled in a winner last minute...this thing really jumped north around here...looking at the radar all the heavy stuff is way farther north than the models showed.  This has been the trend it seems all season.

We had about 3 inches.  North of 96 seems to be different weather up here.  We are closer to the 59 .  Canton area has had some good snow in the past.  Its hit an miss this year.  Not sure why, maybe the constant feed of dry air. 🤔  Still learning on here.

LOT's snowfall totals...ORD 3.1" MDW" 2.7"

This definitely fooled my office with the last-minute push north. Warm layer aka nose aloft over performed no doubt. This was a north side special. How'd you do?

I actually did ok with 3.1” but could’ve done better if the track was farther south so the wind direction was better off the lake.  WI ended up scoring better LEHS/LES and not as much down here.
