Really coming down now. Closing in on 2in! Temp 23

12. Already colder than this time last night but wind will make it tough to go below 5-6

Just saw that.

Pushing 3'' now. No way am I sleeping tonight with the heaviest bands yet to arrive. I think areas east of I81 are in for something special. I'm normally thrilled to have what I have now and it still could be snowing 12 hrs from now. Just unreal

Good news is best performing CAM (RGEM) basically shows precisely that. .

It is. I tried walking on some of the untouched, grass covered areas today and it actually caught me off guard how slick it was.

I’ve heard this before. Will it finally happen?

my memories are of the 94 and 96 blasts (I was in late elementary school) - in the Shen Valley we got down to -10 to -15 during both of those events.

I actually was in your neck of the woods last week to escape the non existant ice catastrophe up here. Never been before. Beautiful town.

Yeah the gradient is gonna be rough according to the models (and what has me nervous about this system) any wobbling can have big impacts here

Been lurking for most of this thread. The fascinating thing is normally totals are boom or bust anywhere in NC and youre chasing model runs. The totals have been very consistent showing snow in Charlotte for several days now--Pretty much every model was showing anywhere from 5+ inches. I hope these CAMS are wrong and everyone cashed out. 3+ would be beautiful to see for everyone. Good luck to all.

I feel like I remember looking at the simulated radar last night and watching it look exactly like that, but then slowly filling in to the west and being like "I need to remind myself tomorrow not to panic and that when the ULL gets closer, the snow will pick up" ... now that I said that, watch that just end up being the cutoff haha

ya'll rubes are arguing sublimation, melting, settling.

Bad trends.

yeah kids around here are just sliding on it. Sledding on this is basically suicidal.

Good luck all! My fams in waxhaw and Conway. Both should do well

It’s been a rough few years for our area since 2021. But also, you’re in a bit of a dead zone compared to here. Over the 20 years I’ve been here I’ve done significantly better than Hanover. I got a lot more from that storm in December and the 2 day multiple wave event a couple weeks ago. Over the years I can even do significantly better than @HighStakes who is within walking distance but at the bottom of the ridge I’m on and sometimes that’s meant an extra 1-2” between us. The globals don’t have the resolution to depict it but when close to a storm look at the hrrr or 3k Nam. You’ll see the difference between the higher elevations and the valley Hanover is in. Hanover isn’t a bad spot and does much better than Baltimore obviously. But there is a bit of a regional snow max over the higher elevations area along and just south of the PA line in this area. Combination of location and the orientation of the ridges creates a meso scale snow max. I observed it for years before moving to the area. Snow isn’t the only reason I’m in the area but the exact location on this ridge was chosen when that in mind. I knew this exact spot was the snow max pretty much for this whole area.

Still see the moon here despite good echoes...

I took a hammer to some of it on some steps (that we rarely use), and it was like "lol"

Yep..noticed the same thing too. By the way, looks like we live really close to each other.

Just multiply everything you see by 1.5X on low end to 2X high. .

Step back -Looks like 18z Euro

Nothing more important enjoy!

If this is anything like Feb 2007, then I imagine the glacier as a slippery sheet of ice that you can slide on.
