I have an idea, storm: What if we all score big? Seems like you're considering it, and we all want to let you know we'd really appreciate it.

Izzi on Friday nite and Saturday band. One note caution, for those looking at the somewhat modest QPF being offered in some of the high resolution models, keep in mind that snow to liquid ratios will likely end up in the 30:1 range or higher! Given the exceptionally favorable lake effect snow parameters, seems likely that this band will likely produce snowfall rates of 2"+ per hour at times Friday night into Saturday morning. - Izzi

Amazes me that this thread continues to grow by 5-8 pages every time I check in.

Much Better

I almost just vomited trying to read this map

I'm always reminded of the Feb or March 1999 storm which was to my knowledge not on anyone's radar for NY snowfall but overnight backed in / filled in over Montauk resulting in a 14" storm w/blizzard conditions there, 6" to the forks, but cloudy at the Nassau/Suffolk border.

A lot of members would be happy with this, including myself.

There we go. That’s what I was hoping for. I would’ve been nervous if the RDPS hadn’t come around. It’s performed well of late.

RDPS moved a bit NW too at 00z

13 ar 10 pm, 1 degree warmer than yesteday at this time. Temp dropped overnight during calm winds but then jumped whenever wind kicked up.

Icon starts to go Neutral to negative at the right time for western areas.

RDPS also big improvement. One trend I have noticed tonight is the ULL further west and slower

RDPS

RDPS increased again. Good sign IMO.

Excited down there for you guys! It’s been a while. Can’t wait to see the cams out of the Outer Banks! Good Luck! Currently 13f here dew point -1 Going down to 0 here under crystal clear skies with 12” snow / sleet / freezing rain pack.

That would track with the cold temperatures.

Indeed, bringing the QPF west a tick at a time and increasing overall amounts.

The NBM also seemed to significantly lag the trends with the last storm... when Morristown put out that first call snowfall map with 7" for Knoxville despite the fact that other than the GFS, no model had shown that in multiple suites, I realized they probably just copy/pasted the NBM

Was just coming to post the same. On my phone, but from what I could tell it did increase totals from 18z in most locations in ETN

This is it! It happened early in the morning, rain to blinding snow. Gust 59 mph! Down to 11 F. I was in college. It was quite a sight. Amazing that this notebook exists. The person stayed up all night (no one does that now [eyeroll]. Does not fit today's current definition for a blizzard does it? @IrishRob17 Thanks for the reference you posted. @nycsnow

FWIW, the 0z ICON is bring the QPF back west. Looks like 0.6" back to Rutherfordton

ICON just jumped NW 8-9 ON southside and snow on the doorstep of RIC
