Flurries are flying at Cataloochee now. 30F currently.

too late missed me

How did NYC get record breaking snowfall in Nov. 1882 Nov. 1898 and Nov. 1938 ? We are way overdue !

More reds developing. Maybe I'll get on the horn and wake drought guy...still warm out, 60 F

Can’t wait to go hiking out in WV tomorrow! Will probably get to Gaurdineer Knob right around 9am and hike for a while

I'm okay without those. They were confusing to the normal person.

I miss the Snow Advisory and Heavy Snow Warning headlines too...

Vort max is coming ashore now. Band should shift towards Illinois. Strong meso low and a Lake Huron connection creating decent snows across Western Michigan. That should come south and keep the snow falling off and on until about midnight locally.

I’m so sorry..I’ll keep you in my thoughts and hopefully your situation will improve

32 at Cataloochee. Good to see reports coming in from our neighbors in Eastern Tennessee! It won't be long now.

Slowly bleeding in over the mountains

7.5” from today. 3.5” in the last hour. Storm total is 9” including yesterday’s system.

Now snowing here at 1750. 35.6

Temp down to 35 degrees now.

The recent HRRR runs have the main band stationary over Lake County, IL. Gets O'Hare into the heavier totals.

Started tiny flurries about an hour ago, currenly lightly/moderately snowing and 34°. I'll try and post a pic in a min

Yep. It's pretty common that a contrarian will attack science across multiple disciplines. The book Merchants of Doubt describes how the contrarian industry operations, why they do it, and the strategies they use. There was even a "secret" book that apparently had been circulating within the industry to assist contrarians in formulating their attacks on science. it was called "Bad Science: A Resource Book" and was discovered during the tobacco lawsuits. I had no idea how pervasive and devious the industry is. The gaslighting the industry uses is so damaging it takes decades (literally) to unwind the faux beliefs they've sowed in public. This is why I think it may take two more decades before any real traction to mitigate climate change takes hold. Fortunately sanity prevails in the long run. Unfortunately it is usually delayed until a significant amount of damage has occurred.

This upcoming week should include both first trackable flakes and first long range trackable but unlikely wintry threat. These are fun seasonal milestones to achieve... Nicely covered by the previous posts. I'm looking forward to some webcams and images from Chicago later tonight.

@Knoxtronhows it looking down your way? I’d say I’m about 2 hours from temps cooperating for snow. Looks like several places near crossville are already there

Incredible How much have you gotten from the lake so far?

Just dropped to 39 here in Black Mountain.

Stuff moving in, Soutwest to Northesst,....

Snowing here at 2000 feet.

Unless I'm forgetting something in between, we haven't had a legit lasting HL blocking period with a real -NAO since Jan 2011. We really are due for one
