December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
BlueRidgeFolklore replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
I have never seen GSP put out a map this bullish 3-4 days out. Heck, I'm not even sure the wave has been properly sampled yet. Rest assured this is a warning shot. These totals WILL go up for the mountains. -

That's exactly my thought. I wouldn't put too much stock into the CMC at this point. It's on an island. -

You should have learned from experience not to get your hopes up in first place, when you're sitting in those areas. Lol. -

They both nailed the forecast in WNC when IIRC, Jason Boyer was very conservative. However, I think that storm is where Chris became really gun shy of the I-85 corridor and still is today. -

That's a 24hr snow map, initializing Tuesday at 2p (so from Monday 2p to Tuesday 2p). By that time, the storm is leaving WNC/Upstate and heading Northeast. That's why it looks the way it does. -

He's basing it off of climo telling him the 85 corridor is nearly always the freezing despite what the models say. -

Did it just disappear? Lol. -

Hot spot still continues to be along the escarpment, esepcially where the east/west escarpment meet north/south there in the Saluda, Hendersonville, Bat Cave, Gerton area. I can see that area getting rocked! -

That's pretty typical with CAD storms. The higher mountains simply block the cold air from reaching that far SW corner of NC. -

LOL at that white dot over Mt. Mitchell. Close to 4 feet I'd assume! -

Cherokee County always gets screwed on these CAD events. -

BlueRidgeFolklore replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
I expect the typical CAD areas along the escarpment, seeping into the French Broad River Valley and high elevations of the northern mountains, will do well. -

BlueRidgeFolklore replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
HOWEVER, it was actually colder and further south than it's previous run. That would be a nice trend. -
That was at Sugar Mountain, wasn't it? Mike puts on a show everytime he comes to NC.

I am a mountain boy so please pardon if this is a stupid question but do the beaches of Brusnwick County's E to W orientation dampen, enhance or have no impact on the effects of storms like this?

We've driven this road many times. It still may surprise all of us however. -

Dutch Cove is just south of Canton, NC, in Haywood County. -

BlueRidgeFolklore replied to Jonathan's topic in Southeastern States
Very unwise, especially considering it's already been snowing in those areas. It's already getting slick and you haven't even decided if you're leaving yet. -

Good question but I would assume it's because they're AI. They have to be programmed to reason, whereas we just understand it based on past events.
