BhamParker Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 You fellas are getting me excited with all these reports. May bite the bullet and make a trip up yalls way for the Friday night into Saturday morning system. Anxious to see how it looks on tonight’s runs. 18z was pretty bullish on both the NAM and GFS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Been under a heavy squall for the last 20 minutes that has laid down about an inch. Probably the best rates of the year. I love sideways heavy snow. Over 2 inches now. Temps continue to drop, down to 22.7 with 22 mph winds. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Moderate to heavy snow this morning. Hatd to tell how much because of the wind just whipping everything around but this has been our best rates of the season as Joe mentioned 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 It is absolutely hammering this morning. This is classic upslope snow finally! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Talk about whiteout conditions! I have neatly 3 inches of snow and we are still getting hammered with a temp of 20 degrees. We already have more snow on the ground than we did last week. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Looking ahead into Tomorrow and Saturday morning there is still a strong signal for upslope snow on both the GFS and the NAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed the 12Z NAM also slashed totals pretty good. The EURO again stunk things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like it’s only bad to one of its bias but it’s just bad period right now. Overrunning events, SW cutoffs, Nw flow. I don’t get why people (including Mets) keep hugging it. Especially with how bad it’s been in our area, just brutal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with how bad it’s been in our area, just brutal. Did you see the graph Griteater posted during the last event? It is now 0 for 6. The GFS has actually done the best but just barely. The models have been not so good this season with snow events. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be honest and can’t believe I’m saying this, I’d trust the NAM at 84 over any global right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I can always tell when you guys are getting hammered. We went from crystal clear skies in the foothills to a dense cloud deck just a few miles to the west and some streamer clouds racing overhead. Wish I was about 10 miles further west. Enjoy it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a little too over amped here and there but I think this season it has outperformed every other model so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are still getting hammered this morning. It hasn't let up at all. Roads are a mess, the winds will cut right through you. Good times! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Congrats Met, Joe and Buckethead. Light snow here, about 1/4” of Fresh accumulation but you can tell the first dusting melted and froze as well as the wind blew it around so maybe closer to 1/2” total from when it started last night to now if I had measured the correct way with a snowboard and by the interval. Wife had to drive to Asheville at 3:30 am and said it was snowing hard from here to there but nothing on the way back. Adding my penny to the piggy bank. 1.5” to go to hit double digits for our first full winter season here, I‘m gonna be confident and think we can do it by the end of April. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah this was more of a classic NWFS so you kind of get shadowed out that way. Its amazing the difference in trajectory makes across the county. I guarantee you will hit double digits by April.

I’d love to be at the one house I wanted above 5000’ in the Mt Sterling area next to park. Bet they got hammered. I’ll take anything I get in flow snow due to how we are situated, we actually managed our largest snow this year in the one event where trajectory was better for us, 2.5”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
