Maggie Valley Steve

Front porch weather on this Mother's Day afternoon!

Of course you are! Nice NW breeze and dryer air as arrived. I ended up with 1.2 inches of rain.

I've got over an inch in the rain gauge and still coming down lightly.

Light to moderate rain has filled back. Radar upstream looks promising for continued rain throughout the evening. The longer range guidance continues to advertise a general trough continuing across WNC into at least mid May. That suggests rain chance will continue with fronts arriving every several days!

We've had breaks in the clouds this afternoon and humidity and temperatures have risen by 15 degrees.

Rolling thunder and heavy rain ongoing the past half hour.

Light rain is falling over the Valley this morning. That radar looks very encouraging and I am hoping for an inch or two today and tonight!

Frost Advisory and Freeze Warning issued for the Mountains.

Clouds have rolled in now, but what a beautiful morning and mid day we've had. I had a low of 41 this morning. We'll see if we make a run at the mid 30's Sunday morning!

Yeah and a slight chance at some wet snow at the highest elevations Saturday night.

What a glorious morning! Lots of lightening and thunder and a round of heavy rain around 5 o'clock this morning. Certainly the rain over performed and it was surely needed!

We've had a nice week with cool mornings and warm Spring days. It's looking that a pattern change is ahead with rain chances returning tomorrow continuing into next week.

I got enough rain to wash down the pollen! 53 this morning.

Frost Advisory hoisted for tonight/tomorrow morning.

I ended up with an inch of rain and I am very thankful! The pollen has been washed down and cooler air is filtering in. I could make a run at freezing in the morning. We'll see about that.
