That was you I met a little while ago right? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Looks like 10.5" is where I'm ending at. A good day. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

10" now! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Yeah, I believe it.. I'm pretty sure these drifts are easily 4'+. The orientation of my house plus the topography make it pile up on that side. I'm itching to walk up to the top of the bald today. The wife made me promise I wouldn't do it alone anymore (sigh) so I'm looking for a fellow crazy person to go with. My usual hiking partner is battling really aggressive cancer so he can't now.

Still coming down! Still some returns upstream but I doubt I have another inch coming. I measure 10-11" in lots of places but 9"was on my board. I have some really big drifts on the nnw side of the house. I'll try to get behind the house and snap a pic later. 1:30 update: I was wrong! Double digits now. This was the best nwf event (by a lot) I've seen since moving here! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

To a guy that grew up below Columbia like me this is almost heavenly. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Woke up to 16° and light to moderate snow still falling. 8" on the ground is a great start to the season! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

I do well up to the 340s. There's nothing upstream anywhere near Big Bald's elevation. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

This is the most I've had on the ground since 12/21/18. That was 8.75". Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Just hammering away outside. Man I missed this! That second picture may be the coolest snow pic I've taken. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Up to 4.25" now and 21° at the house. Coming down pretty hard... mostly nickel and dime sized flakes with occasional gobs mixed in. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
-
Over 1" on the ground at the house. Its small flakes but they're sticking. I'm about to venture up near the top. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Joe what elevation are you at? I'm thinking you're somewhere near McKinney Gap...is that right? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

From the GSP near term disco... "It seems the best forcing/moisture and even limited instability line up for the best snowfall intensity late this afternoon through this evening when we may see snow squall conditions set up across the mountains, focused near the TN border." Its been moderate snow here at 3100' for two hours or so but it's not sticking yet. I'm about to go check up the mountain. Good luck everyone! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Partly sunny with steady flurries and 31° at my office at 3100' in Wolf. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

31 and flurries at my house. I'm 1200' lower on the mountain (the office) and nothing down here just yet. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

The wind out of the WNW is really starting to crank up here. Just had a 32 mph gust. The temp has dropped from 45° at 0600 to 34.1° currently. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

I never picked up more than 3.5" in any one event all season. I'm hoping we get at least 4" here in Wolf just because of that. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

I'm so hesitant to get my hopes up after that December storm last year but seeing those totals boosted my confidence for sure. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

I'm haven't looked at the rest of the models yet, but I'm gonna guess right now that the 3km Nam is an outlier lol. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

My NWS forecast beginning tomorrow afternoon: rain to snow, back to rain, then back to snow. I'm hoping one of us can get under the GL fetch they mention Monday night in the AFD. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Happy Thanksgiving you guys! Among the things I'm thankful for is our little group. We have a good thing here and I hope it stays the same for years to come. Oh, and I'm thankful for having something to track too. That's nice as well. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

I know Wolf Ridge has been planning on opening next week. Looks like perfect timing! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
-
Not gonna lie. I'm way more excited about this than I should be at this point. I remember the storm that seemed like a guaranteed 8-10" last December that I got 2" from. But I'm in the NWF belt above 4000'. I may get burned, but I can't help but be stoked. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

The GSP AFD is a really good read this morning! 878 FXUS62 KGSP 251143 AFDGSP Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg SC 643 AM EST Wed Nov 25 2020 && . LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... As of 330 AM Wednesday: Much colder air wrapping in behind the low pressure may lead to falling snow levels Monday into Monday evening with snow along the peaks possibly dropping into the mountain valleys during the evening. A rapid occlusion of the surface low is fairly likely later Monday into Tuesday near the Lower Great Lakes or middle Appalachians, would significantly slow if not full on stop the progression of the newly vertically stacked low. The location of the low could place us under a prolonged period of northwest flow with lingering low level moisture, steep lapse rates thanks to the cold air mass loft and rounds of enhanced lift rotating overhead perhaps supporting an additional 12-24 window with periods of northwest snowfall across the high terrain especially near the TN border (taking us into Tuesday). At least light snowfall accumulations are in play near the TN border. We may be in store for the coldest air of the season by Tuesday with highs only in the 30s to near 40 mountains to 40s east of the mountains which will only feel cold with breezy northwest winds across the region.
