That band means business! It turned everything white in a hurry here!
-
Wow it is absolutely ripping here in town! This band just blew up out of nowhere! Got a heavy dusting going on now! We’ll see how long it lasts.

Light snow mixing in with the rain now. I’m not sure what the gfs got ahold of yesterday but it’s snowfall output on this system is laughable to say the least! Maybe at least we can get an hour to watch it fall this AM.
-
Nothing better than having a good snow like this and getting snow showers/flurries all day with temps below freezing. Looks like my high temp occurred around or just after midnight-28. Today’s daytime high was 27.
-
Now have between 2-2.5 just depends on where I measure. The wind was ripping as much as the snow was with this AM clipper. Awesome!
-
Clipper snow moving in here this AM! It actually snowed more after I went to bed. With the additional snow this AM, I may be able to make a run at 2in. Roads are sure covered. Temp 25.
-
Up to 1.25in now and still snowing pretty good. Much better than I was expecting honestly it took forever for it to ever materialize here!
-
Really coming down again here. Somewhere between 0.5-0.75in right now. I struggled mightily this evening to try to get under any bands, but there was a steady light snow of fine flakes. Finally a decent band is moving over. Maybe I’ll make it to an inch.
-
Just started ripping here too!
-
After spending about 5.5hrs in the dry slot/downslope, finally have sleet and snow again
-
Both also have a clipper overnight Wednesday into Thursday. Man no rest for the weary! Haha!
-
I have actually bottomed out at 30 myself. Roads are improving a little but it was sick as could be there for a minute
-
Wow! I know the gfs doesn’t have the greatest storm signal for next week, but snow or not, that is about as impressive of a winter pattern modeled that I’ve ever laid eyes on! Wow! Almost unbelievable
-
Same here Carver I just hope the deform band materializes!
-
In a lull right now but the roads are slushy from the snow and sleet and even believe I had some ZR at the end. Fun while it lasted. There was close to a half in of snow and sleet there at one point.
-
Yes I just saw some ice starting to build up on the road in front of my house. I assume that’s from the sleet mixing in.
-
Got some sleet mixing in here too but the flake size of the snow is very impressive!
-
Just woke up to see it’s snowing and have a nice heavy dusting! Temp is 32.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a low pressure do these kind of movements that the models are spitting out. I mean, a 2 frame increment is 2hrs in real time. So, the low is going to move 150mi due north in 2hrs time only to transfer again later? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a low pressure transfer twice in the same storm. However, that’s what these models are implying. I will have to see it to believe it.
-
That was a killer deform band on the back side of the 12z NAM!
-
Oh I know, I totally get it. It is crazy how they give the southern valley (and really the Central Valley too) the same criteria as SW Virginia and the mtns. I guess that’s how they roll though.
-
It’s got to be because they don’t know what to do, but you’re right. The least they could do would be to issue a hazardous weather statement. I also think according to NWS protocol they don’t usually issue wwa’s this soon. Winter storm watches, yes, advisories, no. Also, HUN and FFC have lower standards than MRX for WSW criteria (2in is all it takes there. It’s 4in here.) so, what would be a warning in AL or GA, here would only be an advisory. These would just be my humble opinions on why they don’t have anything yet.
-
Excellent posts this morning. I agree Holston, we have had several other storms in the past couple years where the models couldn’t figure out where to run the low pressure centers. Some bounced east of the mtns, some west, and some right up the spine. Until the energy gets sorted out, going to be some bouncing around, but this is nothing we haven’t seen before. Just gotta be patient and see how it plays out. I know it’s hard to do though lol.
-
It’s still coming down moderately now even though the radar says it shouldn’t be this intense. Gotta be below the beam of the radar
