  1. Congrats central and northern mountain folks. Just woke up to some flakes flying but nothing accumulating past the trace we have.
  2. Working nights right now. Had flurries and light snow falling everywhere I went in Buncombe it seemed, from way over in Fairview to up Reems Creek in Weaverville, didn’t amount to anything however. Just got home to 20 degrees with some light snow falling and a trace on the deck and ground.
  3. Saw some flakes flying last night on my drive from Canton back to my place. Had a trace of snow on the ground up at Max Patch on a midday hike, had to be looking in the shady spots to see it though.
  4. Got sporty here while I was in Waynesville earlier. Had trees down from just the wind before the rain and storms moved in then they moved through and caused more damage. Sirens going off here in Canton now.
  5. Beautiful day working down around Cashiers. Took this at the end of my work day from the top of Sheep Cliff Mountain looking over Cashiers and south to SC.
  6. Yep that’s what I had, coming in waves. Left the house at 6:30 am with rain and a temp about 60, get back at 4:45 to snow in the upper 20’s. Love our crazy weather days.
  7. 27 with a dusting on the deck, truck and anywhere with leaves. Finest of flakes falling.
  8. Those areas are about 50% of climo to date if not worst. Not been a good season.
  9. Yep timely cold shots is the saving grace for the resorts along with upgraded equipment at places like Sugar, Beech and Cat.
  10. Was trying to find this data yesterday and couldn’t but Ski Southeast posted numbers that show how terrible this winter has been snow wise for everyone in the Apps from WV southward. So even those of us with elevation are hurting this year. Don’t know the worst year in terms of snowfall in the last 20 years but I feel like year to date this has to be up there. Let this hybrid La Niña die a fast, painful death not to return for a few years. https://www.skisoutheast.com/the-snow-drought-continues/
  11. Well could be all snow at my place as temp dropped from 36 to 33 but won’t be back home til tonight after the game.
  12. Definitely some partially melted flakes mixing in when I left the house. Reaffirms my belief it’s a 4500’ and above storm right now unless under heavier returns. Mountain across from me tops out close to 4150’ and it’s Just wet up top as well.
  13. All those getting snow enjoy, not looking good for my place right now to see anything more than some mood flakes. Feels like an above 4000-4500’ storm as it stands right now here in NE Haywood. Ah what could have been overnight, maybe the deform band will save this area later this morning and afternoon.
  14. Well, it pretty much hung around 32 and rained all night. I’m sure there was sleet mixed in too. 33 and more rain and sleet now.
  15. 30.7/30 and rain. Deck is wet and a little slushy but thats about it. GSP dead on with the warm nose, now we wait and see if and when changeover is.
  16. 32 with heavy rain/snow/sleet mix. Deck is getting crunchy. If this switches to and stays all snow sooner rather than later it would pile up IMO.
  17. I’ve had a steady drop in dew point the past hour, temp dropped half a degree but dew point has fallen 9 degrees. 43/17 now with a wet bulb down to 33. Gonna be razor close for sure like @Met1985said.
  18. They issued a watch, not a warning guys. Which is refreshing for once because they haven’t issued a watch since I don’t know when. And snow total forecast has been lowered since this morning. It is what it is.
  19. 3” gives me double digits for the year (and it’s already mid-Feb). I feel like that’s not asking for much just below a 4000’ ridge line in a NWFS area but this winter it seems it is. ULL are so tricky I would not want to be a forecaster whether behind the scenes or in the media. I’m already prepared for Spring to be like all the past recent ones I.e. not Spring like at all and messing up fishing conditions. All I have to say is when the tide changes we are due for a big storm or “bad” (good if you like cold and snow) winter in order to average things out. Cyclical nature and all that.
  20. He just filtered it by elevation. Looks like he’s saying above 1200’ is where accumulation would be and the. Going from there i.e. above 3500’ =5-7”, above 5000’ = 7-9”.
