Met or AsheCounty might be your guys for this question but it should be snowing off and on all day, but late morning-early afternoon looks prime with the upper level energy swinging through. If it’s snow you’re looking for and Boone doesn’t deliver, you can always head west to Banner Elk - or at least that’s what I always did while snow chasing in college.

Switching to rain - fun while it lasted. I can’t complain though, it was a nice surprise!
-
Heavier than the snow I received on Friday lol
-
A lot of cliff diving when all of us knew good and well that Friday’s system was a reach (and knew this for days). Let the pattern get there, nobody I’ve seen has changed their tune. We need that trough to get a little sharper than it’s been. In the meantime, never trust ANYTHING that’s not a classic Miller A
-
I think I care less about the accumulation yesterday and more about the fact that after two years of having systems overproduce moisture 2-3x normal and shattering precip records by double the yearly norms, we finally had a system underachieve in precip...and alas...what great timing for it!
-
Biggest bust of my lifetime. Forecasted for 4-6 and got 0. Well...technically a half an inch but that melted a long time ago.
-
Not far from you then. We’re down in the Icard area. I’d change my name but it won’t let me lol
-
Half an inch before it melted. Biggest bust in a long long time! On to the next storm.
-
Radar not filling in like I thought for my location. Congrats to all of you that cashed in - on to the next one for me
-
I’m going to need this ULL to perform like Patrick Mahomes down a TD if I’m going to get close to predictions this afternoon.
-
Maybe the upper level low got tired of us complaining about how wet it’s been lately
-
Brad P insistent on the ULL increasing moisture rapidly in the foothills and escarpment around lunch time.
-
Finally getting close to the heavier band. Lets see if we can make up some ground...
-
Radar is looking juicy, hang in there fellas. Every model yesterday showed this happening - we’re not off track (yet)
-
Still about half an inch but really starting to pick up now
-
Someone in that band over Morganton is getting pummeled. Any ground truth?
-
32.5 half an inch of snow
-
Snow/Rn mix in Burke
-
No better feeling than being in the meso discussion during a winter storm
-
Ironic to hear forecasters talk about a dry slot ... ya know. Name the last time a system underperformed on QPF in the last two years lol. Haven’t we been 2-3x above climo on precipitation?

At the moment: temp: 39 DP: 32 Wet bulb: 36 so.....not an ideal scenario

3k showing heavy rain in some areas where it should be snow (and the sounding says it’s snow), which could explain some of the odd totals or lack thereof in certain areas.
-
Just noticed the 3K does something odd throughout the storm. It tries to depict rain falling in many areas of the Lee, despite the sounding being snow. Could explain the big shift in totals. Not saying it should be thrown out but that would certainly explain the weird cut off in some areas that did well in previous runs.
-
HRRR in line with the 3K for my neck of the woods, showing between 4-5 inches. Lock it in! I’m good with that after almost no snow the last 2 years in the foothills.
