All Activity

Atlanta getting 3 feet is 100% realistic, though.

I call this… “pornografique es snow” .

This isn't quite developing the way the HRRR seems to think it should, which was down the Apps and expanding NW, but a big shield is developing over the Plateau and its heading towards the valley. The radar does look like it's itching to explode down the 75 corridor to the mountains of SE TN.

Ripping out my way. Visibility has gotta be less than 1/4 mile.

5.5 inches, tiny flakes but very thick and foggy looking, its 15 degrees.

I've got to get some sleep, but man its ripping out there!

3 inches with moderate snow. This stuff is just beautiful with fatties coming down.

First flakes just sw of Forest City. Just started.

Snowing in Lenoir. LETS GO. .

HRRR sticking to its guns, shows this being active through 3pm with remarkably similar totals run to run for this area. Which are actually going up since we already have snow on the ground that it isn't initializing with. Edit: Now ripping dimes and nickels!

First flakes of the storm just started 10 minutes ago just sw of Forest City right off hwy 221.

First flakes just started 10 minutes ago.

Same. Finally puking snow at 20.7 degrees

The northern stream flow has to relax and go more west to east and also the arctic air can't be all the way down to Georgia - these suppress the entire pattern - the models lately have been terrible because of a lack of data ( weather balloons etc out west ) BECAUSE OF CLOSED NWS OFFICES apparently.

my daughter's friend broke her wrist on Monday - you almost need those old-timey sleds with metal rails

Right as I posted the flakes got bigger; now have peas with dimes.

Looks like radar is filling in back to the South west too, with a solid area that may move over everyone south of 40, provided it survives the Plateau.

I’ll sleep after it stops snowing lol. Heavier bands are setting up ahead of that oak ridge band now. One is popping over my house right now

It's happening! As we approach the magic hour the radar is filling in. It is snowing pretty hard on me under that band. Not huge flakes but rippin good at 21.7 degrees. These kinds of rates will add up if we can keep em coming.

i’m ready to rock ‘n’ roll, I’ll sleep Sunday.

You get first dibs on the thread for your birthday storm

I'm going to be up for a while for this one. Coming down like crazy right now. I'm going to measure at 3am. I suspect we'll be pushing 6'' by then

Bring on 2/18 that’s my bday storm. Can we get 2 more between weds and then? .

GFS with back to back storms out of the gulf at the end of the run, the first one looking like a repeat of this weekend. Would be nice if one of them turned the corner and made it all the way up.

You may be a little too far from the radar for it to see that band well. I hope some of our Knox crew us up, looks like heavy snow sagging across them.
