Sw NC weather

What a nice early Fall day in the mountains. Bottomed out at 47 this morning and only managed 69 for the high.

Rain has continued into the morning in the sw mountains flash flood warning’s have began being put up for ga and sc.

Bottomed out at 10 this morning. Snow is starting to melt now, will probably be gone by the end of the day.

It’s been absolutely pouring here for the last 30 minutes probably over a 1” 1/2 now.

Coming down at a good clip North of Franklin atm. Everything is coated but the driveway.

Got down to 9, up to 15 now.

Wow that's crazy. Just 30 miles east-southeast we only got 1/2" or so. We always get the NWFS shaft.

Must of been a near perfect set up for my area that’s the most I’ve got in nwfs since the day after Christmas 2010. Didn’t have to go far down the road today and totals cut drastically.

Right at 5” here north of Franklin. What a event, no winter weather advisory here and produced winter storm warning criteria snow!

It must of poured last night, when I looked out i about fell over from disbelief. Looks to be a good 5” maybe 6”. I’ll get a measurement shortly.

Flat out pouring here, definitely over a 1/2”, which is what most models showed.

The forcing coming out of the NW is impressive.  As Ward mentioned this looks to becoming an exceptional setup.

Snow squall warning up in Louisville Ky, should be a fun night.

Nwfs has started, beginning to get white already.

Temp has dropped to 34 and wind is howling. A few flurries falling as well.

Light snow falling north of Franklin 

Low of 27 no snow but heavy freezing fog and roads are slicker than snot.

Head up to highlands.  Even scaly has 14"

I thought about riding it out up in cashiers with some friends but decided it might be a good amount down here. Oh well lol glad they got a good one maybe will all get in on the big totals next time.

Not to belabor the point but it’s all good what people think. I’ve learned you always try to stay positive no matter what. Sometimes that’s hard sometimes it’s even harder.

I’m with you, I wish I would’ve got the big totals some of the others got, but it just didn’t work out. But hey after the torch of December we had any Snow was a win in my book! The max at one time here on the ground is right now which is about 3”. I don’t understand why there so upset we look to be entering a epic pattern.

It’s been dumping fine flakes for most of the past 3 hours. Added a couple inches to what we had left from this morning. Congrats to y’all to my south and east that got the big time totals!

Right around 3” north of Franklin. Still big flakes falling at a moderate rate 

Looks to be right around a inch here on vehicles and the grass. Driveway just now caved.

Moderate snow north of Franklin. Cars and grass starting to get coated.

Enjoy Met.. Graham County under the warning also but then the forecast only gives us 1/2" of snow the entire event.

Snowbird out..

I think you’ll do better than that with the backside swinging thru! 

Man o man I hope the Euro is right.

Definitely a weenie run! Hopefully we are losing that primary into Tennessee.  That would cut down our totals 

That would be a money track for us. Shouldn’t be any worries about mixing. The Miller b stuff is always iffy around these parts.

18z Euro was about to lay the hammer down. (Only goes out or hr 90) it was slightly colder too, prob gonna be another foot + run for WNC!
