chapelhillwx Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Looks like a non-verification for most so far. Did it go back to frozen for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguy3107 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Yep...not a single flake up here in Dahlonega either. Total bust. I told all my local peeps maybe 1" and that was a total bust. I actually feel bad for FFC issuing the WSWarning and not one flake fell. Up here we received less than .10" of QPF after 5pm which just won't cut it when this whole deal was dependent on high QPF rates to create the dynamic cooling from aloft. Oh well...next. Turns out for GA the model soundings won out in that pretty much none of them showed snow in GA. I almost fell over when I saw that FFC issued a WSW....and then they followed with the warning as well. Unusual to say the least. Have you heard of any reports out of the NW of the state in and north of Rome? I'm curious if anyone in Georgia had anything measurable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkman Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 No snow falling but it looks like it may start back for a bit with the final band. 3.5" on my patio...I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you heard of any reports out of the NW of the state in and north of Rome? I'm curious if anyone in Georgia had anything measurable? I have not heard anything but the one report from a fellow poster here who drove up to woody gap in lumpkin and said they had wet snow but no accumulation. I'll know in the morning if anything accumulated north of Helen because I have a clear view of those mountains from my front porch. I'm at 1,700 feet and didn't see any flakes. I told local friends maybe 1" and that was a bust. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Probably my last chime-in unless I wake up to three feet of snow... 32 degrees and light snow here in GSO. Getting down to the final half hour or so of anything significant. Currently, right at 4" total on the back deck, but there was some melting. Given this sort of iffy dynamic scenario, I can't be disappointed even though the models might have underperformed according to some. The kids will have some snow to play in tomorrow morning. It's supposed to be sunny and cold Friday. I doubt the snow will hang around long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Glad I got to see some snow. I guess I did pretty good, but seems like most didn't see the amount forecasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poimen Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Glad I got to see some snow. I guess I did pretty good, but seems like most didn't see the amount forecasted. I think overall you and I did about as expected. Certainly cannot complain as this is the best event in 2 years. Hopefully we can get one or two more before the season ends.

Poimen Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 snowing again after a lull...about 1.5" here...maybe pushing 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovingGulfLows Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Honestly, the March 2009 storm was much better then this one and that was in March. It hit much more people and had higher accumulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packbacker Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Glad I got to see some snow. I guess I did pretty good, but seems like most didn't see the amount forecasted. There is one more band that should move through your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKY_WX Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 i'll be interested to see the final accum' map. we had around a 1/4 of an inch here and then it basically stopped at 9pm. NWS had 3-7 forecasted this morn.There wasn't anything but drizzle b/n 9pm and 12am, when I expected the best accumulation potential. A very big model bust, but it also displays the difficulty in forecasting a small bowlling ball upper low. I do believe some people did very well up along the high country and the nc/va border areas. That was expected however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TriadDeac Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Winding down here in High Point. Right at 3.5" on the patio table. Hearing multiple rumbles of thunder combined with some of the biggest flakes I have ever seen made for a fun evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norcarolinian Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 just got home from work after a nasty drive home...lots of cars and a couple semis off the road or in ditches ... looks to be about 4 inches on the ground here... and no power in town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKY18 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Any reports from Boone? Was thinking of brining the family up this weekend. Thanks. Was up there for a few hours tonight. It was incredible, rates were insane for a few hours, they should have at least 6". People were stranded on 321 in between boone and blowing rock. I was involved in a pretty bad accident near chick-fil-a/ applebees in boone. Probably totaled the other persons car. Just NW of boone on 421 the snow was just coming down in buckets, someone near the TN line probably has over a foot. I'm not sure on exact totals in boone but when I left there was at the very least 5 to 6 inches down, and it was still absolutely pouring snow.
