ThePhotoGuy Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 For those who have been snow it will be. I'm not expecting any here since it has been tougher to see any flakes down this way Agree. I think it will be hard to see any snow at my location also.

WinterWxLuvr Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 The squall line here was about as lame as lame gets. About 10 minutes of snow at a temp of 36.5. I guess snow will stick to snow, though. Good thing is that the temps are dropping. Might hang on to the last half inch or so that remains. I guess one could always hope for snow showers to sneak through the mountains. Good luck further east. Maybe it'll blow up into something more.

snownerd Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Well that was fun while it lasted.

TalcottWx Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Impressive if reliable. Is this a new model? It seems popular lately. It's been around for at least a couple years. It's usually best determining if an event will occur, but not where it will occur. If that makes sense. I've found it to be much crappier with thunderstorms.

gymengineer Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 2/18/07. Heavy snow. Dumped just under an inch in short order around 4:30 pm We still had much of the sleet-pack on the ground, so the snow was really pretty making everything covered again.
