stick to these. Pingers pike S and valley. Snow CNE, N Berks, Monads, Jeffafa-land. Maybe I'm being irrationally confident here, but on a relative scale this looks like an easy one IMO.
Poor Tahoe is in kind of rough shape after the huge Dec. The base at Alpine had 2" for January. 6" at 8k'. And a lot of warm California sunshine. Probably decent bumps at least.
I haven't had any snow under the western band. Looking at the UMass radar maybe a little further south of here in Palmer it might be snowing under there. Also maybe at ORE.
Totally done here but I think snow rates did increase near the end, possibly with the CAA aided lift as was speculated. Tough to measure but probably 5.5" which isn't terrible.
Yeah even as the bands rotate the moisture is just getting chewed up by dry air down low out here, or subby, or whatever. I shoveled for an hour and maybe had a quarter inch down where I started. 3" total
