This storm is so epic, NOAA's website had to post a bulletin saying the server is slow/crashing (It did that to me last night)

Blizzard warnings for a swatch of counties from Oklahoma to Illinois. This includes the cities of St. Louis and Chicago. This storm is gonna become a travel nightmare.

Blizzard Warning issued from 3PM Tuesday until 6PM Wednesday. Absolutely crazy.  I cannot believe this is happening to me :P 

Last night it looked like 18"+ of snow here, however it looks like that may be more near 10"-14" with isolated higher amounts.  I am going to be on the lookout for some thunder snow.

This is a pretty dynamic storm already, there are reports of thunderstorm/unknown precip coming out of Oklahoma City and Norman, OK via NWS.

OKC Radar (shows where lightning strikes are occuring in the snow/mix/rain areas)

The superstorm brought a couple inches of snow here. And it will stay BELOW freezing until Friday. I wish I was up at 4:30 this morning. There were reports of thunderstorms, hail, then sleet, freezing rain, and snow all in just a couple of hours! :o

Wow... the 4000 radar looks so old-fashioned today, although I remember thinking 20 years ago how great it was!  :rofl:

I am displeased at the lack of instability here where I live. Lots of rain but there's low CAPE, therefore, little or no lightning.  :thumbdown: :angry: It's only February 1st, though. Later on, there will probably be more oppurtunities for thunderstorms and severe weather.

I'm staring at the current watch/warning map, and I can't remember seeing such a huge area under a Blizzard Warning in a long time. :blink:
