    Just assessing things here. Looked at nest camera from overnight. About 330 could see it start really coming down. Fast forward to real time eyeballing around 4”. Believe looking at radar things could have been a little more interesting had some of the echoes in NC come just a tad farther north but otherwise very pleased with first true storm in 3 years down this way. Temp 29.1

    Just woke up here. Looked on my nest camera to see what happened overnight. Could see the driveway start caving for good around 330ish. Eyeballing it out there have about 4” and counting. Very nice and scenic. Getting ready for first cup of coffee and will report back. 29.1 outside

    Yea temps really took a tumble after that snow. 28.6/27 here now. I wonder if skies do open up just a tick like blue ridge alluded to down his way and we can shave 1-2 degrees off this.

    @Blue_Ridge_Escarpment @BullCityWx you guys have any thoughts on the main batch of WAA as to how good lift will be for dendritic growth? Tonight’s pixie dust I’m assuming may be more related to ratios somewhat. Have you guys seen anything that will aid in enhancement of fgen or anything?

    I think for me personally with my overall thoughts and feelings on the storm. 5” and over I’m completely happy. Anything under 4” and I feel like the storm will have def underperformed up this way. That’s my baseline going into tomorrow mornings wake up.

    Back end back built some here. Driveway and roads caving. Easily over 1/2” now. Just took a Jebwalk around the block with my dog. Feels good to have a meaningful event rather than just a snow squall blow through.

    Just took a nice walk outside. Driveway and roads starting to cave now. Been a good while since we’ve had a meaningful storm.

    The band IMO kinda sucked due to virga. Ate up most of it as it traversed my area around ROA. Once we got into the yellows it started to rip some but the fatties were far and few. Almost like pixie dust/dandruff. My dew was low 20s prior to initiation so I can imagine with dews north of me even drier it’s gonna take little time. I was going to actually ask to see if someone can prog what the dendritic growth looks like for the main WAA. Will we have better lift to produce bigger snowflakes come morning?

    @kvegas-wx you win bro. Back end is coming down furiously. Streets don’t want to cave but concrete has. Based on dews im at 32.7/24 so after this I still have a couple degrees I can utilize for main batch. Any idea what time you think that starts to roll in?

    This is like snow globe dendrites lol. Combination of pixie dust and dandruff. Kind of thought I’d have some fatties with that bright yellow band.
  11. Buddy1987
    Very lightly snowing now

    The band traversing up this way right now has underperformed severely. Complete virga and the back end is rocketing east/northeast. Glad to see some cashed in to my south and west.
  13. Buddy1987
    Wow big overachiever from first band down your way!
  14. Buddy1987
    Southeastern forum reporting that band traversing into VA at the moment means business. Hope that’s a good omen for things to come for everyone in the forum here!
  15. Buddy1987
    @wncsnow happy for you man! Glad you at least got something out of this and it overperformed!

    Uh oh what are you feeling overall? I think RGEM is way too cold personally. Also gives DC north 30-40” lol.
  17. Buddy1987
    @BornAgain13 RGEM is damn cold for you and would imply all snow.
  18. Buddy1987
    You are actually just south of me. Bornagain I believe is closer to like Stuart area. I’m up in Salem and my brother in law lives in Boones Mill. Should get some nice precip snd rates out of this. Have fun with it!
  19. Buddy1987
    12z nam shifted a good bit southeast with SLP and associated WAA. Faster onset of precip as well. Could very well help areas that are going to be borderline
  20. Buddy1987
    Man you ain’t kidding! 18.5/14.5 outside. Laying the groundwork! I will say first “fears” are present in my mind wrt seeing some of the models coming in drier with qpf distribution but overall with WSW of 4-8” for my county can’t complain. I’m going to be watching the temp today to see how warm we get. Forecasted high of 40.
  21. Buddy1987
    Hmm.. that’s interesting..
  22. Buddy1987
    Ukie looks good! @BornAgain13 hopefully you can cash in before flipping.
  23. Buddy1987
    That meso high that is showing up on some of the models is reinforcing the low level cold air. That needs to be watched closely for areas that are on the fence or are borderline upon start time.
  24. Buddy1987
    Dang that is a big difference hasn’t even cracked 30 yet here
  25. Buddy1987
    I feel good!! I talked with Disc last night about it. He seemed to feel pretty good as well. We are always worried about some sneaky warm layer but based on most guidance we remain all snow until precip is basically getting ready to shut off and we get dryslotted. I would feel good saying 8-12” for ROA right now.
