BooneWX Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Interesting to see so many short range models trimming totals in the lee of the Apps, yet continue to show more intense rates and snow bands in those areas this afternoon. It doesn't really add up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like those flakes we got two weeks ago in Marion, pancakes. Good to see the radar filling in to our west and southwest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Anyone not feeling optimistic should look at Knoxville radar. Could be a good afternoon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think this will be elevation dependent. Above 3k could do well like always but lower elevations are going to struggle with the warm surface. Its been snowing moderately for the past hour in Asheville but not sticking at all. The temperature isn't falling much either, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Morning guys, just wanted to say a couple things. Think this is going to be a decent event for some of you. It seems like some are apprehensive. Anyone closer to the 85 corridor has the right to be. If you’re up in the Mnts try to take emotions out of what you are or are not seeing. Use technology and synoptics. If your not the best model reader lean on GSP’s AFD’s they are a wealth of knowledge and have pretty much everything that’s been happening in print with the reasons why. With all the micro climates up there you’re going to have the usual over & under achievers. But don’t rush to judgment based on emotion. Use the tools at hand to understand what’s happening and why. Sorry for the rant & I hope all of you overachieve!!!. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MountainOctopus Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Hello, longtime lurker—can't read maps to save my life yet, so I'll probably mostly stay that way for a bit longer 'til I get a little more educated. Just wanted to share an obs for northern Transylvania—it was mostly a rain/snow mix since 10:00 a.m., changed over to all snow in the last 30 minutes. Coming down at quite a steady clip, hopefully it will start sticking soon and we can squeeze two or three inches out of it. I've greatly appreciated everyone's valuable insights over the years, it's tough to fight the temptation to refresh over and over again when you guys are tracking snow.

cold air aloft Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 GSP just released a lengthy updated discussion which is worth reading. For what it's worth they've increased the forecasted snow amount imby from 2-4 inches to 3-5. Basically, as has been noted, the heaviest precipitation hasn't arrived yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
