  1. I'm at Publix. We've had more callouts than show up and about 5 customers to show for it. Gotta love retail. I'm more worried about the drive home than I was the drive in at 430.
  2. Hammering in Boone for the last bit. Definitely picking up. Loving radar. Roads are going to the crapper, though.
  3. Ripping now. Radar looks good for Boone for a while.
  4. Bout the same in Boone. Sometimes I think the roads would be in better shape if they left them alone.
  5. About 2" on the ground here so far. Here's hoping we can keep this up through the afternoon.
  6. There was a little bit coming down when I left the bowling alley a bit ago. Had stopped by the time I got to the other side of town. All that virga and my temp/dp didn't change whatsoever in the past 3 hours.
  7. HRRR continues to look dismal for the extreme SW mountains. Keeps bumping up for the NW though. We'll see.
  8. 31.8/27 here now. My dad said theres snow mixing in south of Cleveland, GA. That's farther south than I would have expected.
  9. 33.4/26.6 here and falling pretty quick. Surface temps certainly not gonna be an issue to start with.
  10. Good luck. Everything around here is packed. Even Lowes Hardware is busy ha.
  11. Keep in mind there could be differences in what constitutes a WSW vs a WWA between the forecast offices. GA only requires something like 2" of snow in 12 hours for a WSW (maybe a little more, can't remember). I've had plenty of WWA events up here that would have been warnings back home in GA.
  12. 6z backed off a good bit. 6z NAM actually tries to end as rain.
  13. 0z HRRR pounds the SW mountains. Widespread 5-9 up the border counties though.
  14. I missed out on the Christmas snow and never saw more than 2" last year. So anything over 2" will be a vast improvement IMBY.
  15. Been snowing all morning out on the TN line in Zionville but not sticking. Freezing line is just over the state line.
  16. Not to mention when was the last time the models got precip in the NW quadrant right? I certainly don't remember.
  17. Yeah it's a fun time of year to live in the Banner Elk/Boone area. Getting a left out of my road onto 221 is about hopeless after about 7AM. I do a little grocery delivery to the ski resorts when I have time and it's always insane driving around in there on the weekends. Last week was probably the worst I've ever seen. Folks going stir crazy and bringing COVID up here to us. We've had cases going up at the store I work at in boone for a while now. Granted we get most of the Florida tourists which doesn't help.
  18. Coming down pretty good now in town. Not sticking cause the ground is still a bit too warm/wet.
  19. Nice light snow shower in Boone right now. Okay maybe just a heavy sprinkle equivalent. Still nice.
  20. Also the 12z GFS is a thing of beauty. Great storm for Friday.
  21. A few flurries out and about in the banner elk area this morning. Refreshing.
  22. Not the fanciest station on the block but finally got one set up here at the house. Ambient Weather Osprey station. Budget friendly with good reviews. We'll see how it goes.
  23. If only that last word was realized rather than depicted.
  24. Cant figure out how to get this video to upload but here's a link to FB. About 8PM in Boone last night. At 7pm there was barely a dusting. Picked up nearly 3" in an hour from this band. Photo is from 421 outside of town. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3796060243759393&id=100000663650926
