Fall is about to make a grand entrance this weekend!

Welcome to October, gents.

I'll have the pitchfork ready if this winter bombs.

 I sat on a horseshoe, hung a Dreamcatcher on the monitor and held a rabbits foot in my hand, as I started this thread.

I think it is safe to start a fall/winter thread whenever.  Ill let someone else try to bring the good juju this year.

Go time.

Cannot wait!

I vote on starting one at the first of October.  Especially after this very nice period we are going to torch for awhile.

2nd!

So uh......... you know since we're in meteorological fall and all............... do we start the fall mountain thread? Asking for a friend.

Absolutely! I feel good about this upcoming season.

I know. I've already gone down these rabbit holes.

A solid cold morning for August with a low of 52 degrees. 

Got the fall juices flowing.....

Are you still on the mountain@SnoJoe? I saw that someone over your way decided that yesterday was a good day to burn their yard off. That could've been bad.

They're also doing a prescribed burn around Lake James. I bet it's smoky over that way today.

I'm with you. Winter has been great and all but I can hear the river calling me.

Say it louder! I've had an enjoyable winter, time for a green up!

I drove up to Laurel Park on my lunch break, it’s definitely a different scene than downtown.

Not as unpopular as you may think. I'm hoping winter doesn't last into April like last year.

I remember freezing my butt off turkey hunting in April, but deer hunting in a short sleeve shirt on Christmas.

About 60 and sunny here at my office in Hendersonville. Got me itching for Spring. I feel like this winter has been cold with relatively measurable snow every week. I have had my fun and now I am over it! (unpopular opinion)

4” and still coming down pretty good. Hoping that coming through Alabama will give me a few more inches. 

Not that I put a whole helluva lot of stock in it, but the TWC future radar has it filling in around 3am. I’m not sure which model they use to determine such BUT it did perform well as this storm progressed, I noticed. So I do think there is a great chance we add more in the coming hours.

Starting to rip fatties and stick now. It’s coming guys.

I don't blame them. The HRRR is a bit concerning. These things can fall apart quickly. Could be an entirely different story this evening. 

Can't blame them after how bad they got burned on that 09Jan - 10Jan storm.

I aint even mad. This has been a decent winter but I'm ready for a thaw. My bones hurt. 

Just drive through Mills River, snow coming down good.
