I beg to differ...got any records? Our biggest storms have been As not Bs!

The infamous Snowquester was a Miller B and while you all and DC got the shaft... Charlottesville was smashed with extremely heavy, wet snow. 16 inches here.

We just need to slowly reel this thing in over the next few days and at least we'll be in range to get some kind of event.

"Happy to be in the game" as they say.

Are we talking about winter storms or German composers?

Winter Storm Amadeus

Forecast actually busted low for once! It's 11F here in Charlottesville. Barely a breath of wind. Looks like it will be a sensational day.

Classic North Georgia Gunner

Atlanta is a snow town.

No? Having all three major globals pointing to the same time period of interest is a decent sign.

This was just me taking a potshot at the Euro for having an awful run of late.

Well if the Euro is locking onto it, then we know it's gonna be a disaster for the next GFS run...

the funny part nobody talks about is that this storm screws up relatively 

Yeah a 970 bomb blows up at the SC/NC border... then somehow meanders straight east for 6-8 hours... then runs ENE somehow. It's so bizarre.

Has the Southeast forum started a thread yet?

No but their long-term discussion is blowing up

That is the most ridiculous thing I've seen in a loooong time.

More than a foot in Atlanta. 20" in Augusta.

Snow all the way down to Savannah.

Why are Cape Girardeau and Southern Illinois considered to be part of St. Louis?

I'm also annoyed about the Eastern Canada thing.  East of Quebec is called the Maritimes.  And somehow the provinces west of Ontario don't seem to deserve any type of designation.

As someone who is relocating to that area (ish) this year... this is actually extremely funny to me. STL considered its own thing when no other city gets that treatment. Great stuff.

That’s one tick away from measurable snowfall for my house. I’m back in.

18z absolutely taunting us with another incremental NW move for the weekend. When we all know it ain't coming.

Flurries have been going for about 90 minutes now, maybe it qualifies as -SN? Flake quality is pretty high, a nice gust of wind almost makes it look legit.

One thing I'll never take for granted is what snow looks like in this town. Especially when you drive out onto Pantops or up 5th Street/Cherry intersection and glance at the surrounding hills/mountains.

Gosh it is pretty.

Where are you moving to?

Missouri. Will be time for a new subforum next winter.

Maybe I'll even do some severe obs given the propensity for spectacular thunderstorms there.

Last summer on a visit we had one storm with strikes every second for what felt like two hours. 

No way in hell I'm gonna try to chase tornadoes though.

Rain did significant damage to the glacier. I doubt this snow TV will help.

But anything frozen coming from the sky makes me smile. Gotta enjoy my last winter in Virginia!

HRRR is waaay too warm for my liking. Dumps 3/10ths inch of rain before the changeover for me..

This hurts

VA tidewater is going to get dumped on this run. Very different look

A foot in VA Beach/Norfolk/Newport News and still some snowflakes going at 75

yes please lol

The long-range HRRR was better than a lot of models for MBY 36 hours before the last event. Splashes most of the sub with 2-4" A couple nice lollipops in there too.
