Wow absolutely ripping right now!!

33.1. Amazing what a nice healthy DGZ and moisture support can do for rates. Already heavier snow than anything the last storm did here.

37.9 here. Seems like most of my accumulation will come from the cold NW flow. Not sure much of this daytime stuff will have a chance to accumulate.

I'm not sure how much room this really has to move north. Our NW trend is typically possible because of a lack of an arctic push. This one will turn our backyards into Canada for a few days. IMO the NW trend may not be as pronounced this time. I think ETN has a shot. But even here I think there is a good chance this one slides to our south. real talk, my friends back in NC are in desperate need of a big snowstorm. I'm rooting for them 100%!!

Sneaky system this weekend could be a surprise. Threat for next week looks icy for someone that's for sure. I think the ice threat is very very high with this setup with such a strong CAD push. The GEFS has a lot of really flat NW precip shields. Thin snow streak at the extreme northern edge but a huge ice shield.

Seems like high-res more or less nailed the downsloping for me. I'm maybe at an inch. 32 on the button. I am patiently waiting for my NW snow to pad the stats good lesson from this one. Here is the HRRR initialization for 7pm. That downslope 850mb is ripping overheard. It will slowly come around and end up enhancing our side later tonight.

Moderate snow now. Roads whitening fast! 29.3.

Temp still climbing in the downslope zone. 29. Tiny tiny flakes falling now

Up to 28 here. But the sky is getting really soft. Snow not far from the surface but nothing yet.

26/18 here. Sky has that early virga look to it. temp rising steadily. How high do we go? And how much precip can actually overcome this downslope?

Said the same thing last t year haha

I mean this is just silly at this point.

Phew that is one ugly run for East TN

This is a week of my station data. An airmass like this before a snow/ ice event is such a luxury. Now just need the storm to cooperate lol.

This looks incredibly south for frozen precip on 17z hrrr
