9:30 pm
quickly. >> i think that's why people noticed it so much, because we came out of such beautiful weather. it hasn't been beautiful today in indiana. we're being told about rescues from snow-bound cars by the national guard, and state police. this is from knox, indiana. look at the snows there today. that's valerie cook. we have one from amelia burg that shows us the ground blizzard yesterday in the dekalb area. at one point, there was a 20-car accident involving semis that had many cars in the ditches, and one spot under 9 inches of snow. joanne goss sent us this picture, and here's the snow storm in progress yesterday in whiting, indiana, where the lake snow had locked in. and matt sedar of westville, indiana, right at the epicenter of the snow. look what matt has sent us. matt is a meteorology student, and just amazing, amazing snow
9:31 pm
drifts over there. mark susco just got a picture in to us too. look at that. how would you like your car in that bank of snow? this is a storm that largely jumped chicago with its snow production capability, but took off today, once it took a great big gulp of that lake moisture. actually, the snow started at 9:00 yesterday and has been going ever since then pretty much nonstop in places like porter, stark counties, la port, barrian county, saint joe jt. those were the storms that backed into the chicago skyline for a time today. look at the chill, while folks are freezing up here, in the southern belt, it was record temperatures, in the 80s. it was warmer in orlando today -- or in caribu maine, in the 30s. so this mass of arctic air coming off the snow pack and
9:32 pm
running up the snow pack with much more upstream to go. we're not done with this yet. we're 7 degrees colder than 24 hours ago and cold will be the big story here. you'll see in a moment on our weather bug censors, temperatures already flirting with zero in the suburbs west of town but closer to 20 in the lake snow belt because of warmth coming off the lake. we look for subzero temperatures with the coldest inland locations tonight. already 17 1/2 inches of snow down. 6 down in parts of the indiana and michigan snow belt and late wednesday is our next snow coming in through thursday. look at the totals, a foot and-a-half in la port and michigan city, up to 16. we told you about these other totals, including about a half foot in south bend, and these snows still to come in these bands. when they run down the lake like this and set up these bands, that means they have 200 miles to pick up moisture. you can go on either side of
9:33 pm
them and not know what's going on. if you're under them, that's a white out and there's no sign it's breaking down right away because these winds are traveling down the lake. the isso bars here are -- they mark the path that winds follow just above the surface. winds tend to cover across isobars at a 30 degree angle along the surface. you can see why the snow is feeding into places like la port and porter counties, even swiepg sections of lake county and why we're up to 5:30 tomorrow, we'll still have lake snow going up into that area, including barrian county, saint joe county and stark county. tomorrow night, the winds die down and so do the lake snows. this is where our computer models indicate additional accumulations. just looking at our new inhouse one, there are some spots that could get 10 to 16 more inches of snow. it will be a narrow corridor but it's in that general region, and this thing is dwarfed in size by the larger storm producing it,
9:34 pm
which is making all these winds and rains and snows out east, including big ones in the appalachians, and there's our next weather system in the rockies. wind gusts 40s today in parts of indiana blowing the snow around. note the temperature in chesterton coming off the lake while west of the city is in single digits. another streak of snow could come wednesday or thursday in this area. that list system produced tens of thousands of heavy snow, including the snow that totalled almost 21 inches in parts of the twin cities area and collapsed the metrodome up there, and so of course in chicago, we had wind gusts up to 66 miles per hour in michigan city, 63 miles per hour at the crib and 47 at o'hare and mid way, and absolutely miserable day yesterday, and today was pretty cold too. well, tonight, it's clear, quite cold, and from chicago west, the
9:35 pm
indiana lake snows are continuing, same in michigan, low temperatures, 12 in the loop -2 in the suburbs, and northwest winds are starting to come down. they'll be noticeably less a factor tomorrow with generous sunshine, frigid temperatures, windy and a high of 18. down to 12 in the city. zero in the suburbs, scattered clouds tomorrow night and the lake snows will be finaling ending in indiana and michigan. new snow in the day and likely at night. we'll give you the reads on those numbers and get back to the forecast for you, and about 18 is the forecast by the time we get to actually 23 on wednesday, and 18 tomorrow. so we'll have the seven-day forecast later on. it's gorgeous. >> yeah.. >> greenland block. keep saying that. that's what has this whole hemisphere. warm in the arctic attitudes pushing cold air to the mid latitude and is won't let it
