Look at my chart of Boone. So you're telling me you have seen more snow than Boone during that time period? I think we all get caught up in 2 or 3 inch events when the long term average is still much higher than what we have been getting recently. What is your average in Maggie Valley? I'm guessing closer to 30 inches long term.
Asheville isn't above average that's for sure. They are as much below as the foothills. As are most of the Blue Ridge escarpment mountains. Closer to the smokies and TN border maybe average due to NW flow mostly. Synoptic snows are way below average
Another great 2 part storm was Feb. 2004. I was in high school but I remember it snowed on and off for 2 or 3 days. And we had about 12 inches after all was said and done.
2009 I was in VA Beach at college/with my ex gf and missed it unfortunately.
2010 Christmas storm was nice. Last big snow we had I got to enjoy with my mom.
