    We've had 3 showers with 2 that brought thunder across the Valley. Tomorrow looks even more active! Finished up putting down 90 bags of mulch this afternoon. Still need another 10 to 15 bags to complete that project before shifting to extensive pressure washing of decks.

    No rain here last night, but it looks like chances are increasing ahead of a cold front arriving Friday night.

    We had an hour+ of rumbles of thunder and gentle rain. What can be better!

    Towers are popping up across the Smokies and rain shafts are developing. Looking forward to all the rain we can get in this pattern. The green up is nearing 4500 ft now.

    Looking like an unsettled weather pattern is taking shape for the upcoming week. Chances of almost daily rain fall should finally reduce the wildfire threat across the Mountains.

    Just drove down to Waynesville and there's still some snow on the higher peaks this afternoon. Temperature is still in the upper 40’s currently. It's certainly going to be chilly tonight!
  7. Maggie Valley Steve
    We never got out of the mid 40’s today in the Valley.

    Currently snow showers at Hemphill Bald above Cataloochee.

    54 here in the Valley with light rain. I measured 2.7 inches in the Guage.

    I'm so very thankful we received so much beneficial rain! Everything thing is quickly greening up and our wildfire worries are over! Back to wintertime this week. It's been a couple of years since we've had mid April chances of snow for the higher elevations.

    I had a high of 82 today. That's late June temperatures, but boy what a change is coming!

    What beautiful glorious day across the Smokies! Perfect temperature to be out side and clear blue Carolina Skies. I always enjoy when almost an inch of rain brings so much Greenup. I'm going to begin tackling one of the decks in preparation for restraining tomorrow. Hopefully the rain will hold off until late Thursday!

    After a nice Spring warmup, this is going to shock the system.

    It was great hearing thunder rumbling and heavy showers this morning! We had off and on showers most of the day yesterday and more rain coming today ahead and along the cold front. Looks like additional rainfall Wednesday into Thursday too. I've been enjoying this transition to Spring, but it sure looks like another shot of winter is ahead for next week.

    6 months ago today our Region was experiencing what is likely the most widespread Major Weather Events in generations from Helene. Currently we continue to live with the aftermath of that Historic Event with wildfires burning across our Mountains. Hopefully our very dry and dangerous wildfire conditions will relax next week with a chance of some beneficial rainfall. I hope all of our neighbors are doing well!

    I ended up with a half inch of measurable snow, but it took about 4 hours to finally begin to stick. My low was 24 this morning. It's beginning to look like an active pattern with a rather vigorous Eastern Trough persisting into early April. The impact the the stratospheric Polar Vortex collapse in early March is being felt.

    Ground is covered to the Valley floor. I'll call it moderate snow with very little wind.
  18. Maggie Valley Steve
    It's starting to lay on the decks and vegetation. Temperature down to 34 now.
  19. Maggie Valley Steve
    Flurries at the house and 38.
  20. Maggie Valley Steve
    Flurries at Cataloochee now.
  21. Maggie Valley Steve
    I started out this morning at 57. Rain moved in around 8AM and the temperature slowly dropped to 48 and stayed there until an hour ago. Clouds have now moved in and the deck is lowering with temperature falling quickly to 40 currently. Radar returns are showing up along the border as well as E TN. Cataloochee should have flurries shortly.
  22. Maggie Valley Steve
    The short term Mesoscale Models are advertising we may see some minor accumulations of snow tomorrow night, particularly for the Smokies. GSP grids suggests the even here in the Valley an inch ou two is possible.
  23. Maggie Valley Steve
    No snow flurries in Maggie as far as I know. It's chilly though. The models indicate perhaps a better chance Thursday night for the Mountains and possibly the Valleys. The ensembles suggest we may return to a cold phase next week as well.
  24. Maggie Valley Steve
    Looking like we're shifting to a heavy rainfall threat and some gusty winds in the heavier thunderstorms early in the morning. Temperature has dropped to 56 here at the house.
  25. Maggie Valley Steve
    The Heavy Rainfall threat has increased, particularly for the SW Mountains this afternoon into tomorrow morning.
