  1. I would have went to the Ky-Va border and set up on black mountain on the roadside overlook for best results. Hope it works out for you and Kentucky over there. To be fair though this snow looks to be mostly determined by latitude and luck.
  2. Like the next guy I too am not a fan of mild temperatures and rain... soo much rain. But hey, at the very least we have an active pattern. Here's to hoping we get a broad trough in late february with a -EPO and -NAO with an MJO that doesn't give us the middle finger by entirely skipping the desired phases.
  3. Ha, I won't believe it until I see it sticking to the ground. I guess we can dream. I'm afraid to say it but I may go through a winter with no event over 3 inches. Here I was a month ago afraid I wouldn't see a snowfall of over 6 inches which hasn't occurred since early 2016 I believe.
  4. A little early to call but I believe today's high is going to be 73 here. EDIT: Make that 75... yep I called it too early.
  5. Due to the cold over the last couple of days what little snow that has fell has stuck to the road surprisingly.
  6. I would be surprised if it got here. The dewpoint is at 0 degrees so it would really be scraping the bottom of the barrel moisture wise. Just enough for some small crystals I suppose but not enough for larger dendrites that fell yesterday and today.
  7. Hey, it's something Kentucky! I really wish you guys could get a break. I REALLY hope the warm-up we get is transient.
  8. Last to the party and I'm just as surprised as everyone else about the thread disappearing out of existence.
  9. Sigh, honestly I just find it as a matter of throwing a laugh in a relatively disappointing trend. Maybe some would disagree but I like having some comic relief in every thread to different degrees depending on the topic of course. I'm not an educated hobbyist and I'm certainly far from being a met but I could probably contribute more than I do. I leave a lot of the analysis and critical thinking to Carver and Jeff etc. There is plenty of valuable information in the threads if you look for it.
  10. Yeah Intellicast's interactive radar was my go to map for nowcasting. I had an idea the weather company would eventually take down intellicast but it still left a sour taste in my mouth. The Wundermap is so slow and irresponsive for comparison.
  11. I don't want to even hear about Spring until April. That is unless I finally get the 6+ in. snowstorm that has eluded me for the past 2 winters .
  12. The cold over-performed last night. The temp reached 2 degrees. I also enjoyed watching the Super Blood Wolf Moon. (lol.) As I never had viewed a lunar eclipse before. Of course the night wasn't perfect. The Pats had to win that coin toss... The game as a whole, especially the 4th quarter was frustrating. They definitely needed better refs at that one.
  13. A little more than that now. 0.7 in. of dry powder to cap off. The nickel and diming is strong this season like the last one. Currently 20 with a slight breeze from the west.
  14. We have some overnight nw flow snow here.I'd say right now I have a heavy dusting with persistent under the radar light snow/flurries.
  15. Well temps are back to freezing so anything that falls now will be frozen.Time to clear the tile and wait til midnight.
  16. The exact same thing occurred here in the last 5 minutes. The current temp is now 36. My final total is exactly 1 inch barring any redevelopment ahead of SWVA. About 1.5" is on the grass.
  17. The RGEM pretty much saw it 40+ hours out and I believe the NAM 12km sort of sniffed it out around 30 hours in advance. The NAM 3km on the other hand never really did grasp it. I believe as one of the posters here described it, the 3km sometimes seems to try too hard on the terrain features and elevation. With all that considered, the actual event overperformed all models at least for me.
  18. 3/4ths of an inch on the ground on my measuring tile and roughly an inch or a little more on the grass at home. Since I'm using my low res chromebook camera to take shots taking measurement pics is nearly impossible without laying it in the snow.
