I remember the lee-side drought on that one, I apologize for bringing it up.
-
March 1st of 09, was one of my favorites as well, first time seeing thunder snow. Was a quick hitting upper low pivoting up from ATL and crushed parts of Catawba County with nearly 8"+ of heavy wet snow. All fell from 5-6 pm and was done by 11 pm. Trees were absolutely beautiful.
-
The radar of that upper level energy pivoting through was something else! Definitely the best two part system of recent memory. I lived in Maiden at the time and we only had 4-5 inches out of day one, turned to sleet that night and the next morning we picked up 6"+ out of the upper low in about 4-5 hrs. Great storm!
-
That was a great storm! I remember riding around with my brother that night and the snow/sleet line was setup right through Newton. North side of town it was hammering and then on the south side was some of the hardest falling sleet I've ever seen. About day break there was a band that moved through and in 2 hrs we went from 7-8 inches of snow/sleet to about 11"-12", on the ground.

Jan 29-30 2010 was a great event too, I called that the T-storm. As the low dug across the south the moisture formed the perfect t shape configuration.

https://www.resortcams.com/webcams/blowing-rock/ Web cam out of Blowing Rock really shows how strong these winds are.
-
Starting to whiten up here at the top of the mtn, was 61 degrees here at 2:30 this afternoon. I feel like the radar is starting to really blossom in TN and KY, pivoting this way.
-
A few flakes starting to mix in here, temp down 37. Wind is starting to to howl out of the NW.
-
Getting ready to head up to the cabin, hopefully I get to see some snow overnight, might be my last chance to make it up this season.
-
I figured border counties would be under an advisory by now. I plan on heading up to the cabin tomorrow night with hopes of seeing snow overnight. I expect some accumulations up around 3600 feet by morning Thursday.
-
FWIW, Canadian ENS. showing some light accumulations too. Went from zero to a little hope! So now all models show some potential.
-
NWF looks pretty stout for the typical areas on Thursday.
-
12z EPS still entertaining some probability around the 8th-9th timeframe.
-
EPS is looking pretty good for some NWF events 3/6-3/12.
-
Looking at the mid to long-range, it seems like both the EPS and GEFS are showing some interest around 3/3-3/6 period. Also potential for some NW Flow Snow towards the last of Feb.
-
I am out for a few days, going to catch up on sleep at night. I'll check the models once a day for a while until some new potential shows back up. Bring on a good one in March! Actually checking the models once a day was a lie!
-
HRRR did really well identifying this band last night. Compared to the radar.
-
I love it guys, how something so simple like a snowflake can make a person happier. Grass is getting white.
-
Starting to see mostly floaters here.
-
Awesome, looks like radar is showing more moisture starting to break containment. CCS just went remote learning for today.
-
What are seeing your way? Starting to have some small floaters mix in, with the snizzle. I know the wife's car is frozen over.
-
It's a snow/mist falling right now, not sure what to call it...26.6 schools are on a 2 hr delay I expect that to change soon.
-
Grass is getting white south of Newton.
-
Best rates of the day in Newton, moisture just seems to be coming right over the area from Shelby to Rutherfordton.
-
Snowing a little heavier now. Top of grass has a little white in it.
