  1. If it doesnt hit next week it really might be the end of the month
  2. Its definitely going to warm up after next week's cold shot. The question is what pattern comes next and how long does it take to establish itself.
  3. Asheville recorded a freeze November 1 but Charlotte and Raliegh hasn't. Next week looks promising for them
  4. New England looks like a fun spot to be in December if that's correct. Storm track could be an issue for us southern folks but it's a long ways out yet
  5. Well the best non traditional snow (non gulf low, Miller A/B or upper low) was the super clipper in Jan, 2003. There were also some rogue NW flow events that broke containment in the early 2000s if I remember correctly. I have never recorded more than .5 or a dusting from a true NWFS and even getting that is super rare
  6. 30 here. Growing season (and most of the mosquito season) is officially over.
  7. The wind is still nasty and cold today in the high country. Up in Yancey helping my dad build a cabin
  8. Closing in on 4 inches since Monday
  9. The first 2 weeks of November have went from possibly below average/ near average to above average if we avoid clouds/rain.
  10. So far, none of these locations have recorded a freeze... Next week was looking promising for Asheville but has trended much warmer.
  11. Yeah, sure that's the only reason. Not the fact it rained 30 inches over 5-6k ft peaks with gusts of over 80 mph leading to hundreds of landslides, some of them miles long. Helene flooded plenty of areas outside of flood plains.
  12. I'm at 2.38 now. Looks to be spotty rain/drizzle today.
  13. Up to 2.10 for the event. Still raining moderately here
  14. Driving from Marion to Asheville was white knuckle for sure. Bad accident in Buncombe and a sheet of water coming down Old Fort mountain. Each time they pave the interstate and redo the center barrier. it does nothing to help with drainage. One of the worst places to hydroplane in the middle of a curve coming down a steep mountain...
  15. I missed 2009 in college in VA Beach, but it was the first 12"+ snow in greater McDowell since Jan 96. It's been 7 years since our last 12" snow. 2022 was close but not quite.
  16. Honestly a lot of our best snows the past 20 years have been before or near Christmas storms. 2009 big storm area wide 10-16" 2010 Christmas snow are wide 6-12" 2017 overrunning snow area wide 4-8" 2018 big storm area wide 10-16" And by area wide I mean WNC
  17. If we can keep some blocking, we might score before Christmas this year
  18. Models are waffling about how much rain will fall Monday-Wednesday of next week. They are starting to trend further south with the initial upper low leaving some areas mostly dry Monday-Tuesday
  19. Traditionally, I live in one of the coldest areas in McDowell during ideal radiational cooling night. I'm close to the Catawba river and sheltered by mountains to my south.
  20. If the clouds stay away, I bet tonight is colder for most of us.
