I can't imagine how these people would react if we ever got anything close to the Blizzard of '78. I got about 5-6"s on the ground here. The wind has been moving it around pretty good.

Didn't have the heart to tell them to check the forecast. Yes 50 and sunny is tons better than here but when you shell out the coin to go there in January you kind of want to feel the 70's at least.

I thought of you this morning. lol Evidently quite a few parents were upset that FWCS didn't at least have a delay yesterday. FWIW, Whitko was closed.

Seeking6 Posted January 28, 2022 Report Share Posted January 28, 2022 Admittedly I'm a weather fan but first time I've ever heard the term frontogenesis band. It's being used to describe what's going to happen in Northeast today. I've seen forecasts ranging from 2 inches to 2 feet....that's how narrow that band is I guess. Be safe to our board members out there. Just glad IU is playing at Maryland and not Rutgers. Those airports might not be running on time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Sounds like a potentially big storm is coming to the Midwest this week. Tuesday night into Thursday. As always Indy is on the rain/snow line so keep an eye on things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in the southern part of the state, we are looking at a potential of 1” of ice and snow Thursday morning and 1-3” snow Thursday evening. It’s definitely something to keep an eye on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FritzIam4IU Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 As of right now they are calling for 15-16 inches of snow where I am, about an hour north of Indy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrflynn03 Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 8-12 predicted for me. I can handle the snow, but -2 on Friday night is too cold even for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of wannabe weathermen out there putting out bogus maps with insane totals. This happens with a lot of winter weather events.

As long as I am not driving anywhere, I don't mind the snow too much, but the frigid cold bothers me now that I am getting older. -5 predicted here for low Friday night.

bronkonagurski Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 Well the latest prediction from WANE 15 from 3 hours ago is 12-18 inches of snow over Wednesday & Thursday for Fort Wayne. Last year about this same time we got 11 inches. Eh, not like I have anywhere to go anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 End of January/start of February seems to be a hot spot for big winter storms. 11 years ago today was "Snowpocalypse," a 2-day winter event where we had a day of freezing rain followed by a day of snow. It was massively overhyped on social media, but that was back when social media was still fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWatShot Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Finally started snowing here an hour ago, but this is why I always take the apocalyptic snowfall predictions with a grain of salt. Monday afternoon, my most trusted weather source had my area getting 18-20 inches. Yesterday morning, it changed to 12-16. By last night, it was down to 8-12. As of this afternoon, it's now 6-10. 18-20 just doesn't happen here, ever. For some reason, it always gets warm before a storm arrives. We couldn't get out of the teens for the past week and out of nowhere we hit 50 degrees yesterday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
