Still snowing in Newton, just had some of the best rates since midnight. I have been up since midnight and it has been very few times where it wasn't snowing. Crazy to think that it has been light snow for almost 12 hrs. This storm could have been a big hit if we had a little stronger storm and heavier rates. So cool to see three events in the past 2 weeks. Two major and one just enjoyable to watch! I will say most of the models did a poor job at showing any of this redevelopment of precipitation.

Yes, a very pleasant surprise to watch snow fall all morning, even if it didn't accumulate to too much. Flakes are pretty small now and seems we are nearing the end of the event.

Congratulations it looks great. 
The App State flag looks great too. 
Our son graduated from App right in the middle of Covid. 
Awesome place to watch a football game too but miss those dominating teams back then.

We’ll be back! The struggle to adjust to this new era has been real but they’re starting to make winning moves again.

Heaviest snow of the day so far. Huge flakes.

I left Boone in 04 but I’ve never left Boone in my mind.
The flakes are still big but the band is on its way out.

That started to melt quickly!

High wind watch caught me off guard. Hadn’t even paid attention to that threat.
