Already down to 37 this evening

I think a harsh reality for all of us each winter is that the weather we were pre-conditioned on throughout Dec, Jan and Feb many years ago has now shifted 2-3 states north for all of the reasons you’ve listed. I’ve lived in the foothills my whole life and we haven’t had a true NC foothills winter that I grew up on in a very long time. It resembles how I would’ve viewed a Georgia winter as a kid. Likewise, for folks in SC and Georgia, they’re really leaning on the side of infrequency. The woes go further north too. That NC foothills winter near and dear to my heart is the new reality for areas like DC and Baltimore. It’s all built into perspective and I myself struggle adjusting to that. I guess it makes all snowfall that much more special in the future.

Beautiful April afternoon

Very faint aurora now visible on the horizon. G4 incoming. .

Next month is our time fellas. I just feel it.

G4 conditions possible tomorrow .

Only bottomed out at 27 here, but it also stayed breezy throughout the night. Regardless, a solid 13 hrs below freezing.

I’m happy for the Charlotte folks. If it couldn’t be my area, I’m glad it’s them. No metro area in the SE has been shafted more these past several winters than them. They whiffed on 2 winter storms last season and watched Raleigh take both to the bank. Not to mention the many misses leading up to last year. Enjoy!

A few diamond dust flakes falling at the house.

This is the year one of yall needs to set up a livestream for the evening snow jeb walks. Let us all live vicariously through your snow globe

Ominously dark. I’ve never seen this level of sky coverage from a flow event.

A lot of these snow showers are not falling apart in the slightest as they cross into the foothills. We may be in a rare scenario where there’s just enough instability and lift to overcome downsloping.

I think that batch coming out of e tn will deliver the goods

Per GSP (see last bit): Perhaps the main concern going forward will be to what extent snow showers will escape the containment of the current Warning/Advisory areas...as increasing coverage and intensity of showers means at least scattered snow showers will spill south and east toward the Blue Ridge escarpment. 1-3" of accumulation may become common across portions of northern Buncombe as well as the high elevations of Jackson, Macon, and Rabun Counties, with spotty/scattered instances of 1-3" south and east of there...depending upon where snow showers track. These accumulations aren`t enough to warrant an expansion of any Advisories, but Advisory-level snowfall can be expected on localized basis in the mountains counties outside of the WSW. Flurries and light snow showers are also expected to develop outside the mtns this evening, with some spotty dustings possible across the northern foothills and northeast Piedmont of NC.

Interesting obs: radar filling in over the Lee with virga, it’s now completely overcast here. What id give to see a little Lee side trough form.

Flurries

KMRX is just an absurd radar loop right now. @Bucketheadis going to get a foot+.

I’m feeling bullish on some containment breaking this evening

It’s all downhill from here .

Lightning and winter storm warnings all on the same map .

Nasty thunderstorm here in Caldwell Co

Reel it in fellas. Hope to see some magical photos tomorrow.

What id give to see that look a month from now

Beyond trash, it’s been absolutely useless.
