...I was picking poblano and jalapeno peppers...


This morning we woke up to this:


Lake snow. Possible thunder snow tonight with accumulation of 3 to 7 inches. The leaves are still on the trees, so it's the worst time for heavy snow. The weight can break the branches.
-
That storm is supposed to hit here about 10 PM.
Brought stuff in and covered things up yesterday. Took a little Rosemary out of its pot and stuck it in the ground because my neighbor has one that recovers every year. We shall see.
Landscapers coming tomorrow replace the cherry tree that died, add more rocks, change the grade in one area and add a weeping Norway Spruce as a focal point through the dining room window. Probably waited too long to call them but we’ll see how it goes.
It’s not all that cold yet so it may work out.

3 tunings scheduled tomorrow - let's see if I make any of them!

I predict tomorrow will be a soup day for us Chicagoans.
Snow rates in excess of 3 inches per hour will cripple travel, including during the Monday morning commute. Strong northerly wind gusts in excess of 30 mph will lead to greatly reduced visibility, especially near the Lake Michigan shoreline.
Periods of thundersnow will occur, as well.
- ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Lake effect snow is often very localized, with conditions varying from safe to dangerous across just a few miles. Snow totals in the Winter Storm Warning area may vary considerably from one location to the next.

The storm was supposed to miss us but the models have been all over the place so I’m not surprised that it’s been snowing all day. Not much accumulation though.
