Another 3-4” of snow tonight.   Might stick around for more than 12 hours this time.  But will be gone by Wednesday.  This is the way.  All winter.

My last WWA Friday was a big bust here. Nothing coming at me from that direction can excite, lol.

Snow was definitely heavy and wet but it was so much fun to snowboard in. A lot of work because it's so heavy, but absolutely amazing to get something like this in the middle of March. Last few years we've barely made it into March, sometimes not even that long. They are going to try and keep the hill open another week. If you are around Chicago and you want to ski or snowboard Alpine Valley is in amazing shape for spring skiing and for a weekend it was extremely quiet.

DSM bullseye!  Over the years on this board, I can't count how many times your snow magnet has shined!  Congrats on the surprise snow.  Well, if you listened to the NWS it was a surprise...LOL...did any local mets use any of their own judgement to forecast this event?

the highest I saw was 2-3" on the local ABC station. Others were 1-3".

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.

Got less snow and roads are much worse than the last system.  Yet all the schools are open.  And they were all closed last week because of "more" snow.

Geeze, how much is your snow depth now?  Looks like mid-winter up there with the high snow banks.  How would you rate this winter so far?

Meanwhile, the snow-less winter in Chicago...

Even though the snow has had no staying power this year, we are approaching 100" on the season.  Crazy to think about, especially when we went the first 22 days in January with less than .5" of snow.

Wow crazy! You still have managed to get 4" more than me. Been a horrible pattern for everyone along and south of I-80. Hopefully next year will be better for all. Crazy to think that areas to my north and west have seen 50"+ here in Nebraska.

#1 & #2 back-2-back a century ago. MEGA OUCH! for any snow enthusiasts back then. As the old saying goes "it can always be worse"
