    Great place to eat and reasonably priced. My wife and I used to go there regularly. Every time I work up there I still try to grab something to go. Love their chicken salad.

    The white Christmas made it down to Wilkesboro. Hate to be missing this one in the mountains (looks like 5/6" at the house) but glad to see some family. Merry Christmas folks!

    Made it to Wilkesboro in one piece. Roads an absolute mess in watauga. Pouring snow down here now with a dusting.

    Pure insanity in Boone right now. Just got off work. Good 2-3" in our parking lot. Heaviest snow I've seen in years.
  5. Tyler Penland
    I always went up to the gap on Blood Mountain (neels?) when I lived in Dahlonega. Longer drive but I found more snow over there more often than not for some reason.

    I'll be heading down your way Christmas Day but I'll be down in Wilkesboro tomorrow night. Hopefully we can get into some on the trip down.

    I second radarscope. I use it on Android and PC. The pro version for $10/yr is nice too. And of course if you can get over the price tag the GR programs on pc are incredible as well. I've heard good stuff about RadarOmega too that Micheal Phelps runs but I don't have it myself.

    Yeah actually had another dusting at the house this morning with decent rates when I left at 430. Above freezing though so minimal stickage.

    In what I can only assume was a bizarre flow direction I had more snow here at the house than Tynecastle did 700ft above me. Granted we only had about 3/4" but Boone got nothing and Tynecastle had a light dusting yesterday morning. Very weird. First time that's ever happened.

    Left Boone with nothing on the ground and got home to a good coating here in Foscoe. Coming down hard around Salvation Army and roads slicking up. Nice surprise.

    Flurries reaching down towards Atlanta today. Impressive storm system. Sunny here ha.
  12. Tyler Penland
    STILL RAIN HERE. 33 and raining. Snow literally in every direction from me. Mixed briefly but then right back to rain. *sigh*
  13. Tyler Penland
    Wet flakes mixing in up on Beech in the heavier precip.

    Round 2 incoming. Interested to see if we can get some snow out of this run.
  15. Tyler Penland
    Yessir. We're warming up slowly. Probably change over to cold rain soon enough. Not a lot of buildup on the trees but word is the roads are pretty bad. Maybe 2/10" on the deck.
  16. Tyler Penland
    30 and slick slick slick.
  17. Tyler Penland
    Still sitting at 28 here. First real ice potential since I moved to this part of the county so I'm interested to see how it goes in this little valley.
  18. Tyler Penland
    0z HRRR out to hr 5 and already a significant temp adjustment to the cooler side.
  19. Tyler Penland
    Already down to 30 in Banner Elk. Dropping real quick.
  20. Tyler Penland
    Yeah my only problem with that, for the mountains, is that the Boone area starts off in the upper-20s from what I've seen. Possibly a little cooler than that in the prime CAD areas. Off the mountain the totals definitely won't be as catastrophic as the NAM more than likely but I could see the northern mountain areas raking in a half inch of ice if things play out right. Personally I'm good with a 33 and rain day over any zr.
  21. Tyler Penland
    Yeah looks like both the RGEM and NAM keep the 221 corridor from Newland north in the hot seat. HRRR is colder and would be some great sleet-sledding weather.
  22. Tyler Penland
    Worth noting the RGEM also keeps the part of the northern escarpment up towards Boone below freezing for the entire event. Changes to snow at the end. 1/2-3/4" of QPF.
  23. Tyler Penland
    It's the NAM even a third might be generous. It wildly overstates upslope precip totals in most events. Did the same thing a couple years ago with a similar system. The HRRR is probably more on the right track with its total qpf of .6 or so for the favored areas.
  24. Tyler Penland
    Well, first WSW of the season from Blacksburg for MBY. Greenville just with a WWA for the rest of the area;. Should be a pretty interesting day tomorrow. HRRR showing a solid dry slot and is much lower in precip totals overall than the NAM (surprise, surprise).
  25. Tyler Penland
    Yeah just came down from Banner Elk and it was coming down solid. Roads starting to get covered a bit.
