Snow eventually melts .... you're still down there.

5 additional inches fell overnight in Lemont. Has to be well over a foot on the ground.

Coming down strong here in the Quad Cities with a very brisk wind.

cheryl scott and her cute outfit last night told me i'd be in the 1"-3" zone.... nada. but at least she is pleasing to the eye

Not one single forecast called for much of any snow in Cook County.

Yeah, I know you love defending the weather weanies, but they were dead wrong...called for 4-6 inches in Will/Kendall counties, not a damn flurrie.

Absolutely ridiculous here. 9 inches on the ground. 6 trucks got stuck at work today. I got stuck in the middle of a flat street today and almost fishtailed into a car parked on the street trying to get out. Nice of everyone to still park on the street even though there's a parking ban.

Easily the worst winter weather day of the year.

Well, it's bad enough that Midway had put a halt on certain incoming flights. Sitting in the plane at Indy that was supposed to leave 3 hours ago. Gonna be a nice slog back home after I land.

This is absolutely ridiculous right now. Forecasters appear to have nailed this one as well.

I'll be spending part of my lunch break and quite a bit of time tonight squeegeeing water out of my garage. Small pond in my backyard. Sump pump plugging along and going off about every 2 minutes.

Looks like the weather weenies completely freaked out and overreacted again. 6 inches on the southwest side? Nice try.

I wish they hadn't laid the beet juice down, then. Smells like a caramel factory burned down.

Out here on the edge of the predicted 1"-3"/4+", I don't believe there's been a single snowflake. I think we'll catch a bit by 4pm but a trifling at most. Glad they were wrong ... I'm gettin' too old for this snow shit, and baseball starts on Thursday.

Absolutely ridiculous here. 9 inches on the ground. 6 trucks got stuck at work today. I got stuck in the middle of a flat street today and almost fishtailed into a car parked on the street trying to get out. Nice of everyone to still park on the street even though there's a parking ban. Easily the worst winter weather day of the year.

Yeah, but Frank always turns into a flustered little bitch when people criticize meteorologists, or fake wannabe FaceBook meteorologists
