    Much better spot than the last few rounds. I forget, what is your elevation and how far south down 276 are you (no need to be specific, landmarks are fine)?

    GSP inching down ever so slightly from the 3am call map. This is the 10am update.

    Even though those newer guns were installed years ago, it still amazes me how fast they can go from zero to a skiable base (12 - 18") in under 24 hours. Tammy told me one season they had a 500k energy bill in just one month! That was before their guns and lines were upgraded.

    Highlands broke their annual rainfall record this past year at 136.50", only 3.45" shy of the state record at Mt Mitchell in 2018 (139.94"). 2018 - 125.46" 2019 - 111.78" 2020 - 136.50" Some folks have high snow totals, we have high/extreme rain totals. @SnoJoe @LiQuiDBuD

    As with most events we talk a lot about populated areas (because its where we live) but who wants to throw down where you think the highest totals will be (factor in backend NW flow snow)? I'm liking the southern end of the Great Balsams but also could see Mt LeConte push past everyone with their last minute light accumulations Sunday morning.

    Cat is reporting 2" overnight into this morning.

    Got my inch I was hoping for, ended up with a storm total of 1.75" and although its still snowing, its so wind whipped and small in size i doubt we add much more. Cat has a running storm total of 6" 2" Sun PM - Mon AM 4" Mon PM - Tues AM Still light - moderate snow up there, maybe another 0.5 - 1" before its all said and done.

    Very nice SW NC Weather! Where about in Franklin? valley floor, further west along the divide?

    Half inch just outside of Waynesville (8pm). This on top of the dusting this morning that melted. Was thinking an inch or two was possible but now I'm just hoping for an inch.

    We picked up a dusting this morning in Waynesville near town. Still think 1 - 2" is likely by tomorrow morning for central Haywood. Next week's cold on the models already has me making plans for backup heat and double checking my seals in the crawlspace and exterior.

    It's coming. WV imagery is showing the pivot occurring now. With such high ratios, cold temps, and no problem with ground temps, it'll collect quickly.

    1.5" at Camp Daniel Boone at 4pm when we left the Art Loeb/Cold Mountain Trailhead. A half inch at the house here outside of Waynesville.
  13. Local Yokel Wx
    Gonna make a run into the Shining Rock Wilderness this afternoon to catch the early round snow.
  14. Local Yokel Wx
    1" here just off Racoon Rd in Waynesville (looking at the Mtn Research Station).

    Nice snow globe action this morning in Waynesville, not sticking but pretty. Only trace amounts grass, deck, and cars @WxKnurd, my buddy up Chad Crawford sent me some pics. Solid dusting up to a half inch he said (around 9:45am).

    Wx Twitter this morning has been fun to follow. Someone out of Canton inside the city limits posted this pic. @Met1985, this is likely the evergreen plant providing just enough moisture to create a heavy diamond dust or light snow event for this person's yard (Evan Fisher's theory and I think it sticks). Diamond dust was falling in downtown Asheville as well.

    We need a full accounting and from here out, all "ground temp" debates move to tree limb (type) temp debates

    1" in Cashiers as of 1:25pm
  19. Local Yokel Wx
    1.25" atop Pressley Creek in Jackson Co up just below Cullowhee Mtn (3400') at 1:15pm
  20. Local Yokel Wx
    Trace snow amounts at my house in Waynesville. Nice puffy flakes. Moderate sleet was coming down around 815am around HCC into Canton

    Sipping on coffee and ignoring the news. Moderate rates and fat flakes. This is perfect.
  23. Local Yokel Wx
    The past three years have been extremely wet. North of 110" for Highlands each year 2018 - 2020
  24. Local Yokel Wx
    2" down here in Waynesville, less than a tenth of a mile from the Mountain Research station

    As long as the boss doesn't notice your not working, no issue here.
