You realize there would have been more to come, right?

I'd take what the cmc is throwing down. Gonna be more after that last panel

Light snow in Newton. 32.4

I just went out and took a walk around my block. The Roads are mostly wet but are starting to get white on the slopes that are shaded from the sun. It is coming down the hardest of the night, but I still don't think we are going to have road problems unless it does what it is doing now for about 2 to 3 more hours.

26F and coming down at a decent clip! Got a half inch of new snow at the stroke of midnight atop of what I could only describe as a few inches of concrete. Edit: Main roads are mostly white.

Maybe that band of more steady snow that's currently in N Knox County/S Anderson County can get down here before dissipating

Must be like 5:1 ratio. Is this an April event ?

Yes, but the key takeaway again is another global model showing an east coast threat in about 10 days.

That would've been an easy regionwide 6-12" IMO

WB 0Z Can. should prevent cliff jumping for another run.

That’s about all we can take away from this

CMC is great

Yesterday was the first day that we hadn’t reported new snow at our site in over a week, and only the third day without snowfall since back before Christmas. So indeed, it’s been quite a snowy stretch around here over the past several weeks. In typical Northern Greens style, the period without new snow abruptly ended at just one day because this morning I awoke to moderately heavy snowfall made up of large flakes in the 5-20 mm range. We picked up 2 to 3 inches of champagne snow at the house by the time it was starting to taper down, and along with much more seasonable temperatures, it got me thinking about a morning ski tour to check out the new powder. Today being a Wednesday, the Timberline Quad was running instead of the Wilderness Lift, so touring via the Wilderness Uphill Route was an obvious play. It was still snowing moderately when I arrived up in the Bolton Valley Village, and I could immediately tell that the mountain had picked up substantially more snow than we had at our house – accumulations in the Village were about double the amount we’d received in the valley. I toured in the 2,000’ to 2,700’ elevation range, and new accumulations I found as of late morning were as follows: 2,000’: 4-6” 2,500’: 6-7” 2,700’: 6-7” The only way to assess the depth of the snow from this event was to check on groomed terrain, because off piste, the unconsolidated snow is very deep and it’s a long way to the subsurface. I didn’t get up above 3,000’ today, but it didn’t look like there was much of an increase in depths above the 2,500’ level. The new powder was very dry – right around 2% H2O based on my analyses from this morning and this evening. So it skied really well, but I certainly wasn’t setting up bottomless turns or providing a resurfacing on groomed terrain – there just wasn’t enough liquid equivalent in there. Thankfully, there isn’t a huge need for a resurfacing at the moment - the quality of the subsurface out there right now is excellent because of all the snow and cold temperatures we’ve had over the past few weeks.

As opposed to no storm or a shredded mess storm.

As opposed to china? Yes agreed

What a disaster that GFS run was. 4 inches of rain next week would cause major flooding with ice jams next weekend. Thankfully it's still 10 days away and it's the GFS...

I can confirm. Still coming down steadily in Colonial Heights. Everything has a fresh coat of snow.

The only thing I take from the WB 0Z GFS is the threat of a storm somewhere along the east coast next weekend.

Canadian is remarkably similar to its 12z run.

We need to get this thing under 150 hours. We have been tracking it now forever and it’s still 10 days away

Steady light snow in Lewisville for past 30 minutes. Coating on the deck and cars. (Prior to that was some rain / sleet mix).

It's a cutter. 225 hours out on the GFS means nothing though.

The hrrr is looking interesting

It’s such a broken model. Compare it with 18z. It’s become sadly unusable like the Jma and Nogaps

So looking at the gfs. It has a s/w trod in the middle of the country. Hf and surface low right above Maine with some confluence. Let’s see how it fucks this up.
