  1. Yeah, that's the price range...and up. Occasionally you can find a really good deal up here too. And as long as you have 4wd the snow isnt any problem up here. We have road maintenance staff that do a great job plowing.
  2. Here is how the leaves are progressing in my yard at 4400'. I'm noticing probably 10% of the trees have already browned and lost a majority of their leaves here in NW Yancey County. Sorry it's a crappy phone pic, my Nikon went in the river today.
  3. Last year our first flake's were on 11/3 and 10/27 the year before.
  4. I do believe this is the first fantasy range high elevation nwf slush of the season showing up on the 12z GFS. Not holding my breath, just nice to see signs of the seasons progressing.
  5. If any of you want to increase your snow chances there are several homes for sale in my neighborhood. We get some pretty decent nwf events.
  6. I live in Wolf Laurel, right along the state line at 4360'. My wife works in downtown Asheville and it takes her 35-40 minutes to get there. Were about 15 minutes from I-26. We get our fair share of snow (check my signature) and good nwfs. Lots of homes for sale in my neighborhood...and we have a ski resort too...and the AT! You might want to check out Burnsville and Mars Hill as well. Weaverville is nice but it's in Buncombe County and on the expensive side.
  7. I'm not too concerned about a brownout. Really starting to see some vivid colors up here in Wolf.
  8. Picked up about .3" of rain this evening and it's still raining. Not much but it's enough to knock the dust and pollen down a little.
  9. It would be really nice to smell petrichor today. Fingers crossed it holds together.
  10. It's still a little spotty up to 5500' here along the border but I'd say at least half of the trees are starting to show signs of changing now. I'm hoping the warmth doesn't cause them to brown out.
  11. I dont know about central Ga, but the GFS has shown some low to mid 30s for the high country late next week. It's something to watch at least, even if it is in the long range.
  12. Drizzle, fog and 52° currently here in wolf at 4360'. Finally!
  13. I'm still learning which patterns work out the best for me in the high country. Honestly, all those years of living in Columbia have me excited if I see half a foot for the year.
  14. Caught this hail shaft or downburst over Erwin, TN around 530 today. Looked like a hailcore on radar at that time.
  15. Brad P. posted about the hurricane hunters flying through the Oklahoma storms this evening. At 6,000'. That crew has some serious cajones.
  16. You'll love the summer time now. I should've left Columbia sooner.
  17. Much like Gamecock fans, I think most people in here are already saying "wait until next year." I like where I'm sitting for next week.
  18. It's currently 11° here. It's cold but it's nothing like last January's cold. We hit -9° a few times.
  19. where's the call map SF? Been looking for it!
