    Not sure how an insurance company could ever stay in business with exposure to the rapid intense gulf hurricanes that are getting to be commonplace. State Farm pulled out of Florida like 20 years ago, they would be wise considering other drastic measures. None of them are very profitable enterprises right now. I think Progressive finally got back in the black after 2 or 3 years of loses.

    Have to imagine this has been one the warmest March starts on record, are we averging plus 7-10 on temps for March thus far?

    Seems like Wise, VA ought to be a good place to better understand long term winter patterns, a place purportedly averaging 50 plus inches of snow and isn't dependent on one or 2 storm tracks to make or break snow totals. When a place averages 8 inches a year it can be fickle, but when you avg 50 inches and your ending up in 20s or less it tends to stick out.

    I loosely watched radar returns at both SS and Beech, it looked like Beech had more and better returns. I haven't heard anyone gawking at SS aftermath. I watched it unfold at the base of Sugar, man it was magical 48 hrs. Skied Friday until the bitter cold got the best of me.

    I wonder who won the battle of the flow snow between Snowshoe and Beech/Sugar Mtn? Models were spitting out ridiculous numbers at SS in the run up but I'd be shocked if they were higher than what Beech ended up. I've heard reports from 16 inches upwards of more than two feet, But with all that wind who knows.

    There is a thin line of a flizzard that is causing havoc on the roads, I am guessing the front pushing through and squeezing out the last remaining moisture. It is nearly parrellel to I 81.

    Pretty crazy contrast

    Hard for me to wrap my brain around 10 more hours of light snow like rgem/hrrr show with the lee side for swva upper east TN. Has any meso model not shown it?

    Not sure if WCYB decided to quit forecasting over the winter warning criteria or what. They've been sitting on 3-6 inches for upper East TN for awhile now. Like another poster stated, not sure it really matters.

    I believe RGEM upped totals.

    Interesting, did not know that.

    It's like that blob of yellows and orange on radar scope is just sitting on morristown. Impressive!

    This is kind of trivial but I am curious to understand one thing from the vets on here. For those of us in the east we were really interested in the low placement off NC. The track is projecting a near perfect northwest turn, almost slightly inland, but we don't appear to be getting the northwest flow wrap around (?) at the tailend of the storm that the gfs and cmc showed with this track. For those with the experience, Is the absence of the backend flow due to the result of popping the lee side low?

    Gatlinburg really getting it good on radar
