...and the Snowpocalypse storm shall be known as......

IZZY.

As The Weather Channel Gods have deemed it to be.

Yeah I have a conundrum this weekend.

Really don't want to get stuck in SC on Sunday, but our event on Sunday has already cancelled, and the event on Saturday (near Clemson) has insisted they are carrying on. So if we go, I'm picking my daughter up from school and getting to Greenville around 10-11 local time on Friday, and then leaving right after her Saturday event ends at 4 and getting home around 9, hoping the weather doesn't start Saturday night.

Lol, I'm going right into the eye of the storm

Boone, NC. Expecting, maybe, possibly, to come back Monday. VRBO lady SWEARS they keep the main roads clear and we're not far off a main road. Should be FINE to get back on Monday.

I tend to not believe her, as she has skin in this game.

Wedding in Conway at 4 on Saturday. Current plan is to leave the trailer and try to get home Saturday night before roads get too bad. I’m not even worried about the roads that much, it’s more the fact people can’t drive on a perfect day, much less snow and ice. Local weather seems to be keeping their forecast surprisingly close to the vest, I’m not sure how to feel about them not going full blown fear and doom.

Weather.com and wunderground - 1-3 inches Sat night and 5-8 inches on Sunday

Local news forecasters: Dusting to 2 inches

WHAT IS IT?????

the channel I watched last night


Jan 13, 2022, 9:04 AM

showed a timelapse of it snowing (light blue) from midnight Sat to midnight Sunday, but said it would be a dusting to one inch. That's some really light snow if it can snow for 24 hours and just be 1 inch.

I think the local folks are in the camp that when daylight arrives on Sun morning it will start raining (the legendary "warm nose" that always appears) and melt whatever fell the night before. Then at dusk Sunday there may be enough ummmph left to make and inch or two.

It's Euro vs American models. The Euro is the one calling for big snow, the American not.

Widespread Panic.

Grocery store was combat shopping. Total insanity. However, my attire of a red bandana along with a drover coat and unintelligible muttering served to clear the aisles and the check out lane of most of the competitors.

There is a method to the madness.

AccuWeather puts me in the 3-6" band. I'm sure that'll change in the next 48 hours.

The weather channel has turned into a mess


Jan 13, 2022, 1:52 PM

you are smart to stick with the NWS. That is where all your weather info should come from. Not from people trying to sell advertising and viewership. Storm totals should not even be posted yet.
