Blue_Ridge_Escarpment Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Still snowing light to moderate here at the moment. 4-4.5 inches so far. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Light snow falling, looks like we are sitting around 2.5 inches, maybe 3. I guess now we see what the ULL does. I want to break the 4” mark, have yet to do so since moving here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncjoaquin Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 A little over an inch here. Still pretty to look at. Still better than last year. I am not complaining. We'll see if we can get a little more from the upper low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Mod snow now at 33.2. Went out to feed out horses and it sure is wet around. You can see the radar building into the western side of my county . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 The GFS was the least snowy model here and had 2 or 3 inches, I don't think we will even get that. The hi res and short range models all had between 3 and 6 inches. The temperatures have been ok here around 32 all night but the snow rates have been awful after the initial band.

Expand Some models were showing the spotty nature of these bands. That initial band last night was great but could not cash in as the temps took longer to crash as it hit.

natbright Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Got about 3 inches so far. It is still snowing a little so maybe we will get a little more. Regardless, I am happy with this. It’s beautiful and I love watching the snow fall even if it’s light. Last winter was awful so I am not going to complain. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Ridge_Escarpment Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 One thing I’m liking currently is that the radar says I’m in a lull but it’s been steady even with nothing on radar. Bodes well for later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some compaction evident due to marginal temperature and high moisture content of the snow. A beautiful sight!
