The fact it even showed a band is amazing but to almost nail it. It was only that one run though then it kinda lost it at 0z

The 18z gfs did better lol

They left my report out for some reason https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=okx&issuedby=OKX&product=PNS

Yeah when I stepped outside I couldn't believe it was that much. I figured 4 or 5 eyeballing it. That's why you always need to get out there with the ruler

This was sort of like trying to forecast rainfall amounts in a thunderstorm except most people have no idea if they got half an inch or 1". If most people get a thunderstorm and some don't it's certainly not a bust. But with snow if you're not in that range people will say bust. But how do you forecast for this? Most people saw 2 to 4 but some saw 3x as much nearby. You can't just say 2 to 10 or 2 to 4 with isolated amounts of 8 to 12

Seems that way. This winter will have a very strange looking snowfall distribution though

Has central park made it to double digits yet?

Same. By less than 3 miles I got 8 instead of 3

Ratios were very high in that band as well.

We already know. 2"

Nice final band coming through. Maybe an additional half inch

Almost impossible to forecast because it's a nowcast situation so mt holly couldn't really forecast 2 to 4 locally 10

8 on the dot

Fox in the snow

Should probably be a warning here but I realize it's pretty localized to the southern part of union judging by the radar the past few hours

Just woke up. Gorgeous out. Eyeballing 3 to 4 but hard to tell. Didn't quite get under the allsnow band

Very light snow and 34

So the area he had getting 5 to 7? Lol

I just don't see that area and along the M/D line only getting 1 to 3 unless all the heavier echoes go northeast

There will be a lot of positive and negative busts with this one. Doesn't look like a uniform 2 to 4/3 to 5 anymore

Down to 35 after a high of 43

I think the bumping is done. Now we watch where the banding sets up
