Snowing good in Graham county

Well..there's my dusting ..lol

Still ripping. 

Not that the gfs can be trusted but it sure is showing some heavy snow moving into the mountains this afternoon...Temps seem to be the issue however

The biggest kick in the nads for us foothills folks is if we do get a good amount of moisture and it's a cold rain tomorrow. 

My gosh can someone make a FOOTHILLS thread...

Maybe Met can give some insight but GSP is so confusing sometimes..Winter Storm Warning here but forecast in Western Mountains(Swain Graham  Haywood)is Rain /Snow mix through Tuesday with little accumulation 

Strange forecast out of GSP this morning for some of the mountains (Graham, Swain,Jacckson,Haywood)..Rain and Snow mix for alot of the event although those counties seem to be in bullseye for most snow.

Looks like some upslope snow behind the front but that's it. It'll change.

Yeah run the loop on tidbits and it's very healthy coming through Tennessee, then in 1 panel it's basically gone..almost like a glitch from 156-162..some mountain areas still nearing a foot after Friday with both systems combined. 

GFS coming in hot for the mountains....

I started on the AccuWeather forums around 2000ish. For some reason I thought you were there too. Were any of you on those?

Me....and ole JB

I believe that one trended back NW to us, but could be wrong. No need to get worried at this point we’re one 50 mile shift away from a 4-8” event for us.

Exactly.  Heavier snow band shifted south and east into northern Graham ,Swain,and Haywood County boarders at 6z

Maybe the low that keeps popping in the gulf can get going on future runs..

Looks like it's time to move to Tennessee. 

Yeah looks like modeling is settling in on TN.....amazing how the state line can stop a storm lol

It happens at times. Not to that extreme but this isn't about temperatures, simply about the direction of the moisture fetch. In Feb 1996 Knoxville got 12-18 inches and LeConte got 4-6.

True..I just wouldn't want to be in the bullseye of this storm atm.

Beware: Mt Leconte with a 1" and Knoxville with 10"?  I don't think so...

Yes I believe that's a suitable outcome for all of TN. Middle/west gets the frontal aspect and then the lingered shortwaves backfill the front as a low pops for the east. 
 

it's not worth much the but 12z NAM is in line with the euro of a slower and more solidified "backend" shortwave (I guess that's how we will call it)

Does the NAM go out that far?

It's getting bad when TWC is more accurate for my area than NWS..been like that all spring and summer. Today's NWS forcast: mostly sunny, 40% chance of thunderstorms. High 91

TWC app: 100% chance of rain.Some storms may be severe.

Currently 62°, severe thunderstorms, 1.11 inches of rain

Significant damage in Graham Co..100s of trees down, roads closed, 1600 without power, homes with major damage. It was a scary time..most of the damage was from 2pm-3:45pm

Chiming in here from the north...curious how the Asheville area has done?  Was it a dud except for the very higher elevations?  I visited Asheville last year so I'm trying to learn the area a bit.  This seems like one of those systems where you need to be as close to the H5 low as possible, even further north.

Pretty much a dud everywhere..few inches above 4000' in a handful of areas

Radar started looking very bleak in last hour..

Yeah as much rain as we saw we could have easily saw a foot plus.  A few things that I learned is that apparently the models don't know shit 2 days out especially with a synoptic storm. GSP did GSP things and were right. Good on them. So far this winter is a D for me. 

Exactly..regardless of models, GSP is tough to beat.
