One thing interesting, and has been mentioned in the main thread, is the amount of lift with the LP as it is coming through, the banding showing up on several models could make quite the quick hit for our area, haven't looked at the RGEM in a while, but verbatim could mean a burst of HEAVY snow.

Well, everything is turning out to look wild for tomorrow night all of a sudden.

43 degrees when I got the truck I sold, delivered to Raleigh this afternoon. About to be back in Boone and be wearing short sleeves. Confusing times.

HRRR slams the NW counties, specifically Ashe, on Thursday.

Well, we did have some lightning and thunder last night so... 

I slept through it entirely, I had no idea we had anything other than drizzle lol

Well I’m awake now thanks to the models, let’s reel it in lol. Maybe get a little more from this Thursday which would be nice.

On and off flurries in Boone for most of the day. Has gotten colder (roughly 39 to about 34) than it was at 8 this morning.

Of course I don't take anything TWC says for granted, but only 2 days are above 40 on the 10 day outlook. It's something much more to a "normal" winter finally.

Today in Boone: Snow > melt > snow > melt> snow. No accumulations outside of grassy surfaces and even most of that is melting.

About time it started coming down in Boone. Green to white in about 20 minutes and visibility is horrible. About time for the wrecks to commence for people not ready.

Quiet in Boone so far. looks like totals on the NAM for this weekend have been going up for Watauga and Ashe.

not sure who it was that said it, but the quote (may be off a bit) "if we don't score in this coming pattern, we suck" is ringing in my head. Very excited about how the next couple of weeks look.

roads turning white in Boone now.

Light snow in Boone for the past 2 hours or so. guess I'm working a full shift at the dealership even with 0 customers today so not getting to enjoy it at all. Hopefully i can get out and do some measurements this evening

Pouring in Boone again. One of the few areas that is meeting storm expectation, and maybe then some if this keeps up.

Yep, and I still have to go to to work (I’m a car salesman, I’m soooooo not needed today) hopefully we get a little more banding but it looks like it’s gonna taper off soon.

I'm at Publix. We've had more callouts than show up and about 5 customers to show for it. Gotta love retail. I'm more worried about the drive home than I was the drive in at 430.

Yea we have one salesman who can’t come in (covid scare) one that quit, two call outs, it’s me, one other salesman and my GM and we aren’t going to do anything all day, except waste a good sledding day.

Hammering in Boone for the last bit. Definitely picking up. Loving radar. Roads are going to the crapper, though.

Not sure what we’ve got so far, but looks impressive on the ground outside, looks like a lull about to kick in, hopefully get some more banding in here in the next couple of hours 

Quarter size flakes in Boone, finally sticking to sidewalks and the road slightly 

Light snow in boone

Still dry in Boone

Driving around Boone now, still quiet: will be out and about til probably 3 also should see something soon

I know it’s early but according to radar and latest models I’m about ready to write this one off. Hope you guys in central and northern mnts can score a decent event!

Not a flake so far even though radar says otherwise for the past two hours in Boone

HRRR continues to look dismal for the extreme SW mountains. Keeps bumping up for the NW though. We'll see.

I don’t know if I believe the HRRR at this point but good lord I’d love it.

That is gorgeous!

Not to be too off topic, but what is everyone drinking tonight? I'm thinking Jim and coke personally.
