There was quite a bit of sleet and freezing rain contamination on that map. One of the things that model has to figure out yet.

[Geos]

30s quickly moving towards the lake shore areas in IL. 

Hearing the transition is taking place pretty quickly.

 

Only 9° more to go!

[East Dubzz]

Nice to see snow on the ground. Hope there is even more back home, want to see a white Thanksgiving!

[Geos]

Starting to snow in the Loop already. Advisories should cover this event well.

Having no problems with the site this morning.

[Trinomial]

Snowing here now too!

[Maxim]

Weird storm system

[dubuque473]

Nice to see snow on the ground. Hope there is even more back home, want to see a white Thanksgiving!

wont be a problem! Its white now and should be below 32 for a week...

 

Streets very slick as predicted with the warm ground but should get better...

[Meichel]

Big fat flakes in Palatine.

[Tom]

Changeover complete here...to bad it will only last an hour or so....congrats on Wisco for this storm.  Post picks if you can.

[Money]

What's it like mt? Flurries here

[Money]

Sounds like it's coming down pretty good in Chicago

[Tom]

Yup, coming down hard.  Roads are wet, snow beginning to accumulate on the grassy areas. Down to 33F.

[Nick]

Down to 35F and rain. It should transition to snow soon.

[Madtown]

Snow sticking to everything. Tried to upload a pic....but too big. Don't think it's going to last long though.

[Geos]

Down to 35° at home, but still near 40° in Racine.  

 

Newest HRRR runs putting down 2-3" in my area.

 

 < That's quick CAA!

Thanks for the response! Plenty white here as well. Gonna be weird heading back home, haven't been back there since mid-August.

[Niko]

This is so funny. Im comparing the snows that you guys are getting today with the feet of snows that upstate NY received. Seeing everyone on here getting so excited over a couple of inches and sticking on grassy surfaces is halarious.

Anyways, enjoy the snow today folks. Hopefully, you can make a snowman out of the few inches y'all get today.

 

Edit: My snowcover is gone. It feels so nice outside today, nice N mild.

[dubuque473]

Got a good covering...maybe 1.5 inches but doing nothing now.

[Geos]

Snowing up here in Racine now. Hearing reports of moderate to heavy snow in Lake Co.

 

Down to freezing already and it's barely noon! Hope this can last till 3pm at least.

 

Ground white across the northern suburbs that I can see on the cameras.

It got white around real quick..at times it was coming down real hard with the wind blowing the snow horizontal.  The southern end of the precip shield is roughly at the I-80 corridor.  ORD may pick up 1" from this but that's about it.  Temp down to 31F.  The CAA as you were thinking came in quicker than the models were forecasting.
