Chicago - "Dangerous to impossible travel conditions due to intense lake effect snow expected. Snow rates in excess of 3 inches per hour, localized total snow accumulations of 12-18 inches and northerly wind gusts in excess of 30 mph are expected."

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.

soup day

Is this a common expression? What does it mean?

[wtg]

I made it up.

Cold and snow. Batten down the hatches. Make soup.

Interesting coincidence.

It is 85/65 today and going to be 63/45 tomorrow.

The cooler weather is finally here.

Had neighbors from Chicago in my second winter in Colorado. They would have drinks and watch the news for Chicago weather and loudly celebrate being in nicer weather. They drank, I mean celebrated, a lot.

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.

Sounds perfect!

Hope it's not too bad there!!

"Tomorrow will be 23 degrees colder."

It's a good thing I'm prepared.
