It Appears to be shaping up as colder and snowier than the last 2 winters as well in Indianapolis

This morning's -6 at O'Hare missed the 1978 record by just 2 degrees and is an eye-catching 28-deg below normal!

The bottom drops out when a fresh cover of snow's on the ground. It is truly the track over which the Arctic Express runs!

-13 Creek Bridge, Sugar Grove and Rochelle, all in IL

-10 West Chicago

A big contrast of that rough Chicago weather is what we are getting on the southeast coast of the USA mainland: Much of Florida is in the middle 70's, sunny, and dry.

Sunny, dry, 77F lol. This was the beach cam in the last hour:

This month has been a bit boring weather-wise except for a short warm up and a few flurries. 5-10cm expected this weekend though.

Those NOAA maps are pretty inaccurate, we haven't had a snowpack here since December 3rd (not even small patches). I noticed the same thing last year.

Could be very cold not too far from NYC

Yet another storm on the way. Euro is colder with a ton of snow for many folks. What an active pattern.

Wow...never saw that one. Looks really cool.


The storm this weekend should be a mix or rain for most of the East Coast from the NYC/NJ/CT area southward. :

We should get lot of snow from this in Montreal.
