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.
Please hid my thread Michelle. I'll gladly take a little less than an inch out of the front. Here's to a typical Season with no damaging Tropical Mischief!
For me it was an A. I had a little over 23 inches of snow for the Fall/Winter Season which is 3 time the average snowfall for my area of Haywood County.
Spring is fully underway around the house. Japanese Red Maples are putting out leaves and the Polar is buding. Finally getting showers this afternoon! Time to start a Spring/Summer Thread!
I had a brief sprinkle earlier and it doesn't look encouraging ahead of the Canadian front. Hopefully we will do better late next week when the the ridge breaks down.
37 this morning in the Valley. Definitely an inversion this morning. Looks like a shot of rain Friday afternoon/evening with the arrival of a Canadian front. A freeze looks likely Sunday morning across the Mountains.
High of 35 and the mid March sun just about melted all the snow on my N facing mountain. Currently 29. I expect my low tomorrow morning to be in the upper teens again. We'll see what the clipper can deliver tomorrow. My hunch is it will be too dry at the surface for anything to make to the ground.
Flow snow is fully underway in the Valley with this westerly component. We had some breaks in the clouds earlier, but visibility is back down to 1/2 a mile with gusty winds and moderate snow showers.
Down to flurries, but the wind is starting to whip and temperature is down to freezing. Radar suggests flow snow from the West is developing in Eastern Tennessee along the Smokies.
That's amazing! The ground is white up on Hemphill Bald just above Cataloochee with heavy snow. 37 at the base with a rain/snow mix and just above the base is all snow now. My temperature is down to 42 now and falling fairly quickly.
Just to give a perspective of how powerful this storm is, both airports in Houston are in a longterm ground stop due to sustained winds of 40 to 50 mph with gusts to 60. This is well behind the front.
