Watching models in February was about as interesting as watching paint dry. GEFS is impressive like WOW said. WNC looks to be a good spot to live if you like snow over the next week.

FlatLander48 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Well I was a lot more excited about the storm when I went to bed as opposed to now. Oh well, guess I'll enjoy my 2-3 inches and call it a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Expand The problem is, the first wave has been continued south of me for a couple of days, and I just don't see how it could come north since it hasn't already.(maybe?). The second wave would have to give us a miracle and phase a lot sooner to really do much. There's still time for it to happen, but the southern wave just isn't strong enough to phase sooner.

Expand We all know this will most likely change as the day wears on, weather was saying in the Jan. storm Asheville would be lucky to get a couple of inches, wellllll ended up with 7 of which I thought, 5-7 was what I was thinking then, Mets are very conservative of which you can't blame them. The day of the snow before it started they then said 5-7 for Asheville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
