And the western side of higher totals just rides the lee side 

And those are likely 15:1 ratios out here as well

So so close to being a Murphy to Manteo storm 

The footprint of the NAM is also a near match to the guidance issued by the WPC

Can we all stop gaslighting each other? It was exhausting last storm. We all want the same thing but someone has to lose when it happens. Whether you had snow an hour ago or 15 years ago, we’re all weather enthusiasts, so we’ll each want a storm at every turn. If we can’t land it in the west, I really do hope you folks down east get a good one. Everyone will have opportunities the pattern is loaded.

Yep. I'm going back and reading the December 2017 overrunning thread. This seems very similar to that and some of the same model bias is showing up this storm

Very similar as Hunter alluded to yesterday. The benefit this go-round would be phenomenal temps. We could be looking at solid 15:1 ratios in WNC if we can just get moisture here.

The NAM was getting ready to be a humongous hit for the upstate and WNC.

Euro was a win for the entire state of NC

Also keep in mind that the recent track record for storms has been amped not suppressed. 

Im not ready to say it’s not ours yet, not at least with the Euro, Euro ensembles, NAM and GEFS in our camp. 

I feel like the 12z suite is going to be the moment of truth for a lot of folks in the state, including us.

The euro is roughly 18-20 hours of snowfall

See, where you went wrong was paying them any attention at all. I get my long range disco from Met and Hunter, if neither of them aren't talking about it then it's too far out to think about.

You’re 100% right. And Hunter, I’m looking forward to your next video update on the weekend potential!

The amount of bitterness and pure hate for us in the upcoming storm thread is palpable. Remind me to never root for the triangle again when the next ULL comes through and shafts the Lee. Anyways. Enjoyed tracking this storm with you all and looking forward to the next one! Lets ride! 

Windy, cold, beautiful snow on the ground and even some flakes breaking containment this morning in Burke!

Well dang. Ripping fatties here again.

6.5 inches of snow and still lightly coming down in eastern Burke

6.5 inches of snow and still getting flurries/intermittent light snow here in Burke. What an awesome storm. 

This storm was a 10/10 on the cool factor. Almost 6 inches of snow and we have steady snowfall ongoing. I’m optimistic we can hit 7-8 if that band in the UpState holds together.

Don't look now, but the 18z GFS says we do this all over again next Sat/Sun. Nearly identical timing.

We’ll have more blocking so hopefully it’s a Miller A if it happens

Steady snowfall with almost no returns on radar. I forgot what a “flow style” setup felt like 

What a freakin storm! Heavy snowfall to top off the ice from earlier!

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen sleet come down this hard in my life

You still all sleet? Got a nice 6.5 inches of snow and at least 1 inch of sleet so far. And its still coming down.

I’m still seeing heavy sleet here but it seems like some really tiny flakes are mixing in a bit but more than 90% sleet overall.

@wncsnow when you tell me the switch is occurring, I’ll get really excited lol
