The 6z was considerably further south and flatter compared to the 12z Nam, would like to see it correct towards the NAM on this run as it's coming in. it's still suppressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is at the end of it's range at that point, but worth keeping an eye on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is trending to a big event for mtns and foothills. Im down for what ever guys! Sleet, snow, beers.. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatLander48 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Really wish we could get the storm to rake up the coast instead of heading almost due east, would help our totals a lot, but I'll take it. Though at this point, the coast stands to see more snow in 24 hours than Boone has all winter, with this storm included lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sw NC weather Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 A decent event on the GFS pretty much 2-4 Inches for the mountains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hvward Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 idk guys the Euro just isn't having it Well KAVL went from .1” of accumulating snow to .7” so that’s a 700% increase in frozen precip. I really just think the Euro is struggling. I have seen it do this before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
