Blizzard conditions last night on Emerald Isle, North Carolina - insane bomb cyclone event! Supercells in the warm sector. It appears i may be snowed in for a bit. It is hard to tell how much snow fell overnight with the wind bag, but it must be near 18 inches. #bombcyclone #blizzard #stormchasing | Reed Timmer Extreme Meteorologist
