NWS GSP‏Verified account @NWSGSP Dec 7 What do you think will be the MAX snowfall amount in the @NWSGSP forecast area w/ this winter storm? (Feel free to reply w/ WHERE you think it might be!) Note, we cover 46 counties in W NC, Upstate SC & NE GA: https://www.weather.gov/images/gsp/gsp_cwfa.gif … #ncwx #scwx #gawx #wncwx #cltwx #gspwx #avlwx Don White‏ @BiltmoreCANE Replying to @NWSGSP 33" @MtMitchellStPk Extra credit.....45mph winds at times! 6:58 PM - 7 Dec 2018

Congrats man!....while your snow totals might have come up short, you're definitely over performing in the significant other department!!!

Hey Mike, quick question where did you get the info on Mitchell? Reason being is GSP did a contest on Twitter for the storm for where the most snow would fall. I predicted 33” on Mitchell. It was way above anyone else. I also threw in 45mph wind at some point during the storm for extra credit. Need to rag them a little bit if this is accurate. .

Agree completely with the tracking. The Christmas 2010 storm hooked me bad! .

Curious as to how this lines up with y'alls totals? Remember it's a prelim. map

No....that would be you Joe!!! My idol! .

Miss the snowstorms terribly. I get to live the chase with you guys. I love the beach but in a perfect world I’d have a place up there for big events. A special thanks to all of you for letting me ride along with this group. I rarely venture outside of it except for the tropical forum. .

South central Jackson near the Transylvania line @ 4100’ .

Got some pics from my brother in Jackson county. He’s done well! .

If you can download Taptalk it will be so much easier to post pics & vids. It should auto size them for you. Not sure how to do it via phone using a browser.

Wonder why my wife never says such!!! Sorry off topic, are you trying to post directly from your phone & if so are you using Taptalk or are you posting from a computer you downloaded to?

Thru your phone or computer?

Wow!!! Can you post a pic or 2 Mark? Would love to see it if you have the capability.

Congrats Jason!!!

Congrats folks! As per usual SE weather events we have some that over achieve and some that under achieve. Keeping it all in perspective (Dec. 8-10), it sounds like a pretty awesome chase & finish! Keep the obs, pics, & vids coming.

Here it comes fellas, strap in tight. .

Nice!!! congrats!

Pics & or vid's whenever possible please!!!

Still at work and haven’t looked at any info but it only started raining in Fort Walton Beach about a half hour ago! Lots of moisture coming that way tonight and tomorrow!!! .

Just got a text from my brother 4100’ South Central Jackson county near Transylvania border “getting pounded!” .

Here is the MOB morning disco. Gas meets fire for you guys upstream! .NEAR TERM /Now Through Saturday night/...A strong upper level shortwave will move eastward out of the southwest states today. An associated area of low pressure will move eastward along the coast this afternoon and evening with a warm front stretched eastward from the low along the coast. Ahead of the low, a strong low level jet of 50 to 60 knots is expected to develop and this will help bring an increase surge of Gulf moisture into the region by this afternoon. Precipitable water values are forecast to climb to near 1.9 inches just in advance of the low. The combination of the deep layer moisture and strong forcing downstream of the upper shortwave and sfc low will lead to development of heavy rain across the area primarily during the afternoon and evening hours. Most areas can expect a general 2 to 4 inches of rain, with locally higher amounts before the rain exists the area late tonight. The severe weather potential continues to look very marginal and confined to areas along the immediate coast where weak instability may reach inland as the warm front moves north just ahead of the approaching low pressure system. We cannot completely rule out an isolated tornado or damaging wind gust due to the strong low level shear. However, the best potential for rotating storms will remain over the coastal waters. The primary threat will continue to be the potential for flash flooding in the watch area. In addition, rip currents and heavy surf can be expected at the beaches. Minor coastal flooding will also be possible late this afternoon into tonight. There will be a very sharp temperature gradient along the warm front today with locations north of the warm front staying in the mid/ upper 40s and low 50s. Locations south of the warm front could reach into the upper 60s to near 70. Breezy conditions will also develop today, especially in areas south of the warm front along the coast where the higher momentum air aloft mix down to the surface. A wind advisory may be required later today. /13

Another busy day at work for me! I know there is a dedicated obs thread that you folks will want to use. Please post or re-post in this thread. The dedicated one is just to much for me me to wade thru. Good luck to all you folks with a special shout out to the old timers Joe, Jason, Mark, Thomas, & anyone else I forgot!, lots of pics and vids please!
