I think sugar has reported 15” since I’ve been here (and that doesn’t count what’s been falling this morning) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoJoe Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Even though things are starting to slack off a little I just had a squall that was as heavy as I've seen this year. It only lasted 10 minutes or so but had to lay down over a half inch. This has been a decent event. Shouts to griteater for the heads up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Looks like we ended up with just over 8.75” from this event. That's the 2nd biggest snowfall of the season for me. 10/29/17: 3.5" 11/19/17: 1.25" 12/8-12/9/17: 11.25" 12/24/17: .5" 12/30-12/31/17: 2" 1/4/18: 1" 1/13/18: 2.25" 1/16-1/17/18: 3.25" 1/29-1/30/18: 3" 2/1-2/2/18: 1" 2/4-2/5/18: 1.5" 3/7-3/8/18: 6.5” 3/12/18: 2" 3/13-3-14/18: 8.75" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 7.5 at my location in Boone. Unreal night/day. If you would’ve told me that my 2nd biggest snow event of the season would be a nwfs that falls within 18 hrs, I wouldn’t have believed you.

NEGa Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 12” measured at sugar mountain. Wow - i haven’t seen a foot of snow from one storm in many years. What a great way to end out this winter and experience a nwf event! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Ended up with 8 inches. And I agree with Moondoggy, we will see at another flow set up before it's all said and done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherHawk Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 IMO I think this was the last event before October...but I've been wrong...remember it snowed on Earth Day in 2000...was cleaning a creek while it was snowing...great event...but I am ready for spring and getting the garden going...good luck everyone and I'm signing off...until the next time gentlemen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatLander48 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Walking through campus this morning made me wish I had my camera, absolutely beautiful.

BooneWX Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Anybody in the Boone area know where Ray gets his official measurements from? These numbers from this week are really low when compared to a lot of other reports from Boone. If he is using the airport, I totally understand why this is the case (further east). I feel like the measurement for Wednesday is a solid 2, to as much as 4 inches lower than what most areas around the city limits were reporting.

I can't understand how someone only measured 4 at 1 pm, unless they were further east of Boone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you guys know if this data is available from all of his stations? All I get for the one here in wolf is a blank page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NGTim Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 speaking of snow totals. i suspect many of you have seen that snow pole outside of Freds at Beech. its impressive. I've been trying to find where that data is kept in a tabular format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
