packfan98 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Looks like the banding features are setting up as happens with a departing coastal system. Looks like one in the SE Triad region (and my house) and another one through Surry County foothills. Look for that one to backbuild a little and be slow to depart.

packfan98 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Significant jump with the latest hrrr for some of us to get a nice dusting-1/2" of mood flakes. I received a nice dusting so far. It's sticking to the trees and looks so picturesque and festive. Enjoy it if you get in on the action! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamsputnik Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 We have somewhere around 9 to 10 inches here, though who knows how much has melted by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarmNose Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Absolutely ridiculous for early December. Looks like even parts of the Florida panhandle saw some snow. I believe that makes all 50 states that have seen snow fall (and even Mexico) and its not even winter yet. That doesn't happen most winters let alone early December. Does anyone know what's the earliest that all 50 states have seen snowfall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if we can get some pretty flakage in a couple of hours with a heavy dusting to 1/2 to make it a little more beautiful... That would be 1/2" of "sneet". You may have doubled my total. Congratulations to all who scored. It just wasn't my turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it doesn’t melt before I get home. Planning to fly my drone over downtown Greenville today and Asheville tomorrow. Should get some great shots if it doesn’t melt.

The 3km nam seemingly did best in the short range and with the warm nose. Long range I would say CMC and UK did the best picking up on the track closer to the coast and totals further inland. Euro was late to the game as was the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a serious note though I ended up with 3" of rain with temps in the mid 30's is pretty par for the course here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Welp, that's a wrap. It's still snowing with this last band, but the flakes are really tiny and insignificant. I don't think we'll add anymore to the accumulation. We've picked up an extra inch this morning to bring my grand total to 5.5 inches. (There may have been more, but compaction and melting in between measurements is always hard to gauge.) This has been a fantastic way to start off the winter season -- a real early season surprise! It reminds me of the 1980s, when we had 20+ inches of snow -- it seemed like -- several times that decade. Getting 5.5 inches this early puts me in a great position to exceed my winter max snowfall at this location (see my signature). Of course, we may not see a single other flake this winter, but I like our chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
