18z Euro really moistened the storm up for the southern crew

Like last evening, temperature is falling quickly but I do have a bit of breeze this evening. My high was 49 today and have dropped to 38 under clear skies. Hunter in his afternoon post on X stated that this is a two part system. The first coming early tomorrow morning and lasting to around 10 AM. The second part of this system should arrive after 3 PM and he believes this one will drop 2 to 3 inches across the Smokies and Balsams. He stated it should wrap up before daybreak Tuesday morning.

13-14 and 14-15 were really good winters. In 2015, I passed by the Aetna lake in Medford in late February/early March, and it was still frozen over. We don't even get a hard freeze anymore, much less that late in the season.

Yea. Rock bottom was already “achieved”.

Yup. Swing and a miss. Oh well. Maybe the 22nd will produce?

Late to the party but over-performed here with 5.5”. Couldn’t believe the rates this morning. Quite a few accidents too. This one snuck up on a lot of people.

37 and 31 here good buddy. I still have snow in my woods and on the north faces like you. I think we topped out at 44 today. Hope we can get some good crystallization rates tomorrow once the temp starts going down.

I've spent some time hunting our land and have yet to tag one. Ran into a 10 point buck last Sunday while working and forgot my rifle. Now I always have my rifle and no buck to be seen lol. Isn't that how it always goes? I'll try again Tuesday and do some snow tracking. Either sex season in my county thru Jan 3rd so I'd take a medium sized doe and be happy as F with that but I kinda got buck fever right now lol

Hammertime hates the pattern for any snow SNE

yeah - the 186 hour 18Z GFS snow maps are always accurate ,,,,,,,,,,actually this is encouraging

Dude…let the SNE venting be done in peace

And I'm about 20 miles NNW of you. Roll the dice and see what happens! Sitting at 33.0/29.1 at 6 pm after a 47 high. Only patchy snow on north facing areas left from Friday's 5.3".

Already down to 38 in Greensboro. Dewpoint 33

Looking at the satellite, it seems like we should have at least 2 or 3 more hours of mostly clear skies.

Eagle Rock, VA here, about 30 mi NW of Roanoke. We shall see what happens, animals were deff moving this evening when I was hunting. I’m off work tomorrow and hoping we do well.

No one does northern crew ragebait quite like the prime time GFS

38 here now

Target imo: 30°, I think if we could make it there before the cloud cover gets dense, we got a shot. 30 because you’ve gotta adjust for the 3-4° bump inevitably coming with the sky blanket. If we get moisture in early, it could really help since every cam has us at like 40/41 at the start.

I haven't even considered doing that tomorrow. Its an hour and 15 drive and I have class at 1pm so maybe mid morning would work. That said, its finals week so I may just stay local to conserve my energy. Will you be going back there though?

@michsnowfreak I did better with the Nov storm but you've now gotten 360% of my Dec total. It's all relative, lol. Certainly right there with you regarding life in the shadow of IA/IL/WI hot zone. Other than Dec '74 Detroit is not known as huge front end winter paradise. More so the back half. Your F/M/A avg's are better than I had in Marshall.

3.7” as of 5:45

We need Tomer Berg to show us why this will come north

Hard to figure out what to expect around Fredericksburg. Feel like an inch at where I work in Spotsy County could be doable but more like 0.5” at home in Stafford. Good times! Good luck everyone!

Sunset. Not a cloud in the sky. .
