I'm right on the Wilkes/Ashe county line sitting at 2500' so I'm hoping we might actually be in the sweet spot.

1" on the ground and coming down fast!

Im in Wilkes county right off the parkway at 2500'

Just curious but at what altitude is the warm nose?

Light snow started about 30 minutes ago here.

We are riding it out up near west Jefferson.  We are at 2500' so I hope the mixing is minimal and mostly snow.

Sitting at 29 right now.

We need to head into town for one more run before the snow hits

We are packing up and heading to our cabin on the east slope in Wilkes county on Friday. We are at 2500 feet so I think it should be all snow.

Indeed, we are heading up this weekend and into early next week to NW NC

West Jefferson is starting to get a good number of trees changing already (Poplar, Birch, Elm).  Maples are just starting to get a little color and oaks are still green.  Same for the parkway between Boone and West Jefferson.  East slope into Wilkes county where I am is still pretty much green.

We should be in business starting this weekend.  I plan to go up on the 24th and stay through the 30th.  That should be peak time for my location.

Which March 7 do you prefer?

 

 

I'm good with either one, just no more rain.  I need my mud to dry out.

Is this combined Wednesday night and Sunday?

Had 1" when we woke up this morning.  Nice little surprise snow.

Heading up tomorrow morning to the cabin to see if we can catch a white Christmas.  I am only @2500 feet and right by the Lump off the parkway.  Even if we don't get anything on the ground it would be nice to see snow in the air on Christmas day.

Leaves are at peak at my cabin.  Not far from the Lump overlook off the blue ridge

RDU has had moderate snow for the last 90 minutes.

I would say so

Just started sticking to the ground in the last 30 minutes.  Looks like a good dusting on the ground.  Still snowing at a good rate.  North Durham County

I do not see a logical reason why they would lower the "high" totals of 1-3" at this point. It's all snow, we have hours of snow ahead of us, rates should stay good through 9-10, and sunset is approaching. If anything I'd say 2-3 in sounds more correct for the immediate Raleigh area. I type this as it is snowing at a good clip at my window before 4, when they had the changeover this AM's forecast. I think it had to mean the NW. That's it for my rant. Snowing good atm. Temp is an issue for accumulations but it is dropping like a rock.

It may snow 4-5 inches but I don't think we will see high accumulation.  Everything falling in my neck of the woods is immediately melting and its a solid moderate snow.

Full blown Flizzard now in North Durham County.  A few bigger flakes mixing in luckily no rain or sleet

Snowing in the Bahamas?? Dang.......

Its a town in the northern part of Durham county.  Halfway between Roxboro and Durham

light snow in Bahama just started

dewpoint has dropped 2 more degrees

I hope we’re starting off today right with this blanket of clouds.

I am in Bahama and its 38 as well.  Nice thick clouds hopefully keep temps as low as possible before the event.

I can confirm sleet mixing with rain in Morrisville.  I am 2 miles south of RDU

Anyone have any idea as to what is going on with Greg Fischel?

Pear and Cherry trees are starting to bloom and the Maple trees are budding.  Looks like an early spring

Not much to talk about and its Feb 1st...

We always see storms move NW at the last second... For once let it work in our favor : )
