  1. Not feeling this one We were blessed to have the terrific snow in the high elevations the week after Thanksgiving.
  2. Fellows: We need urgent prayer for Big Frosty (Rodney). He and his wife both contracted COVID about a month ago and he cleared it after a brief hospitalization and was back at work. Unfortunately, the side effects came back last night with blood clots in the lung and pneumonia. He is hospitalized today but not in ICU. Rodney asked that he will appreciate prayer from everyone for a quick recovery. There is no one else that has a higher level of interest in winter weather and knows his local climatology the way Big Frosty does. To all, thank you for taking the time to be prayer warriors. It is gratefully appreciated. Thank you.
  3. Joe Bastardi put out an extremely warm initial call map for the East today +3 everywhere in East and 75% of normal snowfall.
  4. It’s all about humidity control. Even though upper 50s to mid 60s can be prevalent the dew points can remain high. A separate dehumidifier in the system can help

  9. Appalachian Trail Over Hump, Big Yellow and Roan Mountains Balds in December 2019 Absolutely fantastic 1 hour video and rendering of the experience of being in the AT with snow cover and above the clouds. Few are blessed to experience this in summer and even fewer in winter. It is truly the best the NC High Country has to offer. Heaven at its best. Kudos to the fellow who put this together Enjoy

  18. Mike Dross (‪@MikeWDross‬) 12/6/18, 14:52 ‪@AlConklin‬ Yep. It gets started /w deterministic snowfall maps from GFS/ECMWF that are flawed to begin with, not to mention 5+ days out. By the time we get into the mesoscale model time frame (when we actually know what's likely), public already going off flawed/inferior/old model data. +100
