    Public Works just plowed again and was laying salt. I guess we're OK up here regarding salt for now!

    I agree with your A+ rating. The guidance overall handled it rather well with sniffing it out which is really important for seeing the possibilities a week out! I do not see any real relaxation of the pattern well into February. We are paying for the warm Christmas.

    I'm going to attempt to clear the driveway enough to get one vehicle out today. It looks like the Town of Maggie Valley plowed the road leading up to the house early this morning. Those little blessings of being the last house within the Town limits I suppose. So it looks like a minor event may be possible Tuesday night into Wednesday. We'll see about that potential the next 24 to 48 hours. I've heard rumors that NCDOT is running out of salt. I hope it just a rumor locally for our Mountain Region!

    -3 this morning with clear skies. The views are amazing with everything covered in snow.

    Getting some very gusty winds here at the house. Occasionally near whiteout conditions from all the blowing snow. Hopefully it blows off my driveway. The leaf blower was useless and I'm not up to shoveling the whole way down to the road!

    I've had a peak of sun through the light flurries the past half hour. Visibility is up to a mile and half. Looks like that's a wrap on the first part of the storm. We'll see what any flow snow brings later this afternoon and overnight.

    Currently light snow and 11F. I haven't added too much to my storm total since noon. 10.4 inches and slowly adding. We've had some wind gusts a bit earlier, but really not much wind at all. I see the flow snow in Eastern Tennessee is out of due North now.
  8. Maggie Valley Steve
    Up to double digits. A little over 10 inches and the rate and size of flakes have picked up the past 15 minutes.
  9. Maggie Valley Steve
    Near 10 inches now. I'll take another measurement to report to GSP around 12:30. A couple of shots from the front porch.

    13 with Moderate snow with visibility less than a 1/4 mile. The upper trough is dropping SE from Western Tennessee with the upper low beginning to close off over Northern Mississippi and Nothern Alabama. Will be watching to see if the trough goes to neutral/negative tilt as the day wears on. I see no signs of the snow letting up throughout the next 24 hours at least.

    9 inches and counting here in Maggie Valley.
  12. Maggie Valley Steve
    9 inches so far!
  13. Maggie Valley Steve
    Down to 14 and heavy snow. The upper low is getting closer. Incredible rates now.
  14. Maggie Valley Steve
    First morning shots. There was no hyping here in the Mountains that's for sure.
  15. Maggie Valley Steve
    Eyeballing about an inch and counting. I'll measure tomorrow morning on my snowboard.
  16. Maggie Valley Steve
    Same here! Very little wind at all.
  17. Maggie Valley Steve
    Light snow and 28. Already a dusting including the driveway.
  18. Maggie Valley Steve
    Flurries have started at Valley floor. It took a while to saturate enough.
  19. Maggie Valley Steve
    Light flurries on Hemphill Bald just above Cataloochee. It's that time folks. Enjoy!

    Folks in the Tennessee forum are reporting snow in Knoxville area now.
  21. Maggie Valley Steve
    Looks like our upper trough that will develop into a closed upper low is progressing nicely. That trough is currently located over Illinois dropping S. The shortwave to the W is dropping quickly through the Rockies. There are several surface waves riding along the Gulf Coast as well. I'm seeing signs of frontogenesis over Eastern Tennessee with rising clouds. Locally, some lower clouds are developing over the ridge tops. It is probably another 3 to 4 hours before flurries begin.
  22. Maggie Valley Steve
    Haywood County schools will let out at noon.
  23. Maggie Valley Steve
    20 and Cloudy at the house this morning. Humidity has risen overnight to 72. It 'feels' like snow. Good luck gang!
  24. Maggie Valley Steve
    I really hope you folks do well! You've suffered long enough.

    The WPC stated in their afternoon disco that the Blue Ridge and the Smokies had a Moderate to High Risk to exceed 8 inches so that makes sense to me!
