Phew.

NAM is about to be an absolute behemoth.

Big tick NW on GEFS. I don't see anything that would really keep this super suppressed. GFS is not backing down yet.

I'm not going to lie. This winter has been so frustrating and continues to be. We can't seem to manage a single decent synoptic driven snow. I've been checked out since the little event the first week of November and that hasn't changed and doesn't look to. I guess the plus side is I've had more sleep over the winter than ever before. Just incredible how bad the short term trends have been for this mid-week event. Yet another token NW event on deck.

I'm not surprised at all but this event has been a complete and total failure by the models. It's a toasty 38 here and I've racked up .30 of rain. Hrrr and nam and RRFS had only a couple hrs of rain before a changeover around 6am. I don't think even the NW stuff will be snow this afternoon. I hope my friends and family over in Eastern NC don't have the same fate!

55 here now! Hrrr and nam both keep the border counties snow. Looks like a nice 1-2" surprise may be in store for my area. I'll believe it when it's falling from the sky though.

Hrrr had me at 40 at 12... it's 34 currently.

My house here in Erwin!

Phew

high res video from my weather cam of the snow squall earlier today. White out conditions! Really cranks at the 2:30 mark and onward. Gusts over 20mph. Click here for snow squall video

I hope you just looked outside. full on whiteout conditions!!

These bands are fun. 27 with quarters falling and it's November 10th.

This is a very deep batch of moisture (for NW events) and is more than just your typical NW flow. If the NAM is correct this would bring a few hours of snow across a large portion of the region and not just confined to the NW slopes.

Finally getting into range of high res and the NAM is bringing the goods. This ULL could be fun. Perfect timing right after sunset. And we are COLD COLD.

Not to derail the thread but why did it get shut down? Drama?
