Kind of a repeat today. No hail thankfully but it was just a wall of water leaving Ashville early this afternoon.

If the models show a good look but you just assume everything will be bad 1.)you are most likely right BUT 2.) why are you here? We all commiserate when things don't work out for us (and they haven't been working out) but if "winter is over" then this forum is of no use to you.

Definitely think you'll see more than a couple inches. Enjoy! I'll be sitting this one out in Charlotte.

Had to come back up to Beech to experience this. It's deep. I am not sure if it is more than December 18 but it doesn't really matter. When you get this much snow the difference between 15 or 18 or 20 isn't the point. Days like today are why we do it.

I am having intense FOMO based on what I am seeing on my cameras on Beech. Looks to be snowing very hard.

But otherwise today was awesome!

It took me approximately 6 hours to get from my house on Beech to Tyncastle. Relentlessly snowing and I think everything in the area was so backed up they couldn't get the salt trucks out to us. I think everything was fine until the skiers all left and the intensity of the snow picked up. Would have turned around and gone back but that didn't feel like an option either. I re-learned the lesson of when not to be on the roads up there.

It is, and has been, absolutely hammering snow on beech mountain. Big sticky flakes. This report is being brought to you live from the Beech Mountain Parkway. Where I have been sitting for 2+ hours.

33 here where I am on Beech. Didn't think temps would be an issue after being in the deep freeze all weekend. Curious how this plays out. We're right on the edge of temps and precip shield but still think we should do ok.

Obviously not focusing on one single model run but if we could get something like the 12z GFS that would make for a nice little wintery stretch heading into new years for the high elevations. (in stark contrast to the last few years)

Probably the same model that was spitting out 5-7 for earlier this week lol

Dropped to 29.8 at 4am. Currently 34.6.

31.2 here on Beech. Not sure the models are going to tell me much more at this point. It will snow when the ULL moves through tomorrow but I have no idea how much. But preparing myself for the changeover to take longer than I want it to.

Wow, GSP with 8-12 across most of Avery County. Not sure I saw that coming overnight. @MotoWeathermanis it going to be raining or snowing when we wake up Sunday morning on Beech?

Lol. Dusting was absolutely the wrong way to describe that. But much less than 3.5.
