  1. 2nd straight day with a low of exactly 34.2°. Looks like some big winds possible behind the front Friday that might put an end to high elevation leaf season. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  2. What a nice stretch of weather. Absolutely perfect for leaf season. The colors have been excellent this year so far. Also saw the 18z GFS with our first flurries by the 18th. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  3. Saw video of snow down near Waynesville on the Parkway this morning. Posted by Lokel Yokel on FB. Winter is definitely on the way. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  4. Made it to 36 here at the house. Camped up on Hawksbill in the Gorge last night and not sure what the temp was but it was breezy and cold this morning. Nice refreshing camping weather. I'm betting we see peak leaf color in 10 days on Grandfather at the current rate. Here's sunset last night. Already quite a bit of color in the Gorge in the exposed areas. They always change early though. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  5. 18z GFS did it again. The NAM is on a different planet with landfall in Myrtle Beach and barely any rain in WNC. Really strange look. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  6. Here are the 0z Euro and ICON. I got my maps backwards it was the ICON with the more widespread high numbers. Euro still no slouch and you have to figure neither of these models are going to handle the upslope SE slow well at all. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  7. Really not liking the looks of Ian's inland track. 0z Euro dumped double digit rains for most of the board. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  8. Yeah I'm concerned about the potential flood risk. We'll see how it evolves though. Verbatim the Euro is a widespread 4-6" for most of the SW facing slopes (particularly bad for the SW mountains) and the GFS is widespread 2-4". Those are concerning totals from low-res globals at this range.
  9. Absolutely loving today. Bottomed our at 41 with a high of 63. Great night for a fire out as well. This will really get the leaves going. Hoping for a great leaf year, it's been a bit since we had a real killer one. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  10. Short heat wave this week but looking mighty nice into next weekend. Maybe another round of high elevation 30s and low-40s for the rest of us. That'll get the leaves going right on time. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  11. Made it to 44 this morning. Absolutely fantastic. Loving this dry stretch, it's been a long time coming. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  12. Got home from the race last night to a solid half inch. Tack that into the half inch we had yesterday morning before it melted and I managed an event total of 1" which is my first measurable snowfall in April since moving here in 2015. Wild. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  13. Finally sticking to the grass. Lovin it. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  14. So. Much. Virga. Today. So much surface dry air to burn through. Glad to see you SW mountain folk aren't having that issue. Edit: aaaand it's raining? Cool. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  15. First lightning strikes up around Bristol. Those dynamics will be fun this afternoon. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  16. Blowing Rock has joined the "its snowing outside" club. Nice little shower rolling through. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  17. Those 500mb maps look wild towards the end of that run. Good ole GooFuS. If the 3km NAM verifies we could see some thundersnow in the squalls tomorrow evening. It's pretty generous in moisture with a second wave Saturday afternoon.
  18. I can guarantee it happening this time. Going to the Martinsville race with my dad on Saturday night with a 745P start time. Looks straight up cold. Thankfully they shortened it to 400 laps.
  19. Seen a few flakes mixing in here a little bit ago. Actually had a light rain/sleet/snow mix going all at once for about 10 minutes. Just April saying hello.
  20. Check back early tomorrow morning. I'm betting you'll get a dusting. That spot over into Moses Cone/Flat Top usually does better than spots around in flow snow. That whole upper half of Shulls Mill didn't completely melt off in spots until a couple weeks ago.
  21. We're at 38 with rain/pinger mix here IMBY. Should switch over soon. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  22. Sitting at rhe bowling alley in Boone with occasional graupel and sunshine. Drunk weather. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  23. These storms along the escarpment mean business. Absolutely dumping. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  24. Man congrats to you border and southern mountain folks. We managed an inch today with the snow squalls. Down to 13.5 and still very breezy. Not our storm again up here but still a refreshing break before spring gets here. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  25. Just had a squall run through Blowing Rock drop visibility down to 100 yards or so. Looked like fog. Wild. Lovin it. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
