Wintry February 19-21, 2020 Winter Storm

Brad Panovich is claiming victory. Now Hold my Bo ice tea. Well go(inserted clean version) I wish he would stop lying. He said bread&milk storm and told schools to shutdown. Over this? I wish he had higher standards because he is altering plans of families and hurting local economies of the Charlotte metro market. There is a big difference in playing it safe and being wrong to cause panic. If you would like to further this conversation let’s move it over to banter. Thank-you.

hard to say, on the vehicles probably 4-5", in the yard 3-4" but its also packing down....looking at radar its tough to tell how much longer this will last...there appears to be some enhancement between RDU and Goldsboro that is moving into my area this may be what has caused my flake size to improve....the real question is how long does this last....if somehow we can squeeze 2-3 hrs of this kind of rate and flake size in then I think we got a legit chance at 6"+....just hard to say how how it plays out at this point, earlier the HRRR had the best rates etc from 10-2 so maybe thats what we are seeing....

Yeah for snow accumulation I typically use a vehicle if I don't have a snow board because it's closer to that (and what's officially reported) vs the ground unless of course you have a lot of snow (thus may not matter as much in either case). The last band's accumulation efficiency should be considerably higher than what you've seen thus far, so 6" seems achievable.

Good you love your job Phil. Does not get any better than that! For me up here, it was a big flaming nothing burger, but glad others scored! And at least is is cold enough for me to have may wood stove going and no bugs outside for the moment!

About 4” on the back deck and cars, just under 3” in the grass, no slant sticking!

That was a significant hour for my snow totals. Left to take my wife to work at 9:15 and got back at 10:20. Had easily added an inch of snow the lawn went from potmarked lumpy looking snow to that smoothed over look and the roads had gotten worse as the temp on my car was down to 30 out here away from town. Just measured 3.75 on my outdoor table but the bottom was slushy and compacted.
