Luftfeuchtigkeit Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 First flakes falling here. 19Z RAP showing bullseye ~20 miles north with quite a bit less here. Maybe I can pick up a couple inches quickly in the first heavy bands before they shift north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stebo Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Yeah I like the 2-4" here locally, thinking more 2-3" with isolated 4" spots for those who get lucky. Solid addition for the month though, which is already 17th place for snowiest February on record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
