13 for my low this morning. I'm just shy of 20 inches for the year.

I am at 11 inches. Not great, but way better than it's been. Plus, I made it to zero degrees. Still time for one more hurrah.

Wasn’t even an advisory put out for Graham co and it’s still snowing good

I understand the specific category that is necessary to issue an advisory. I am certain that was met in many parts of Buncombe. We had  roughly an inch here at my house. My daughter sent a picture from Arden that looks like 2 inches .  I think they need to change their criteria.

If the roads are slick and schools are closed, to me that warrants a winter weather advisory.  It's winter weather and people need to be advised. But, what do I know, lol. 

No idea how much snow, but it is pouring.  Everything is white including the roads. 19.0 degrees.

A little AFD GSP snippet for you higher elevation guys. You may get your own blizzard.

"

NBM accums were quite a
bit higher than last night with some areas in the smokies and near
Roan Mtn approaching 20". Pulled back on those amounts given the
shallow moisture but considering 50kt winds at 850mb tonight plus
multiple rounds of DPVA spinning around the larger vort lobe, would
not be surprised if some areas outperform the current forecast.

To add to the above for Asheville, NWS has an official forecast of 0, with a high end of 2 inches.

any snow for Asheville, 

 

1/2 inch to an inch seems possible. Maybe more if you luck up and end up under a heavier snow shower.  

GFS shows a pretty impressive NW flow event. Let's see if it holds. 

All the talk of big rain .  Only .13 here at my house. Glad this wasn't snow! 

Surprisingly made it down to 21.0. Just like every rainfall for the last 6 months, the expected amount has trended down all week. Hopefully, I can pull out a half inch of rain. We need it! 

From Jason Boyer-

AVL Regional Airport just had a gust of 63 mph!!

The wind here is absolutely stupid already.  It is going to be a long night.

Enjoy gang! Not expecting much of anything here.

Me neither, but all it takes is that rogue snow shower to throw down a quick 1/2 inch to an inch. Wishful thinking..... maybe.

Halfway decent snow falling. It has whitened the cars and my deck.

Anyone see this? 

I did not. I would be shocked to wake up to 2 inches of snow.  I am not expecting it, but it would be a nice surprise. Thanks for posting. 

I am at .1. The airport is at 13!!! What the heck? Downtown is at 7.2. 

Edited to add. I have changed these a couple times because downtown and my house have continued to drop, while the airport stays about the same.

One more edit. It might go lower,  but the lowest in a while. I figured I would show it. Cold!!

And one more edit to show it's not just me. The 13 is the airport. The others are also from the Ambient network.

This storm gets an A+ from me. Lot's of snow,  cold, windy, large scale storm. What a freaking two weeks.

About 7 inches total. Not an all timer. But....... I still agree with the A+ ! I love the super cold snowstorms. It was a beautiful snow. It snowed all day long . It hasn't immediately melted, and probably won't for a while.  Plus, at least here, there has not been a lot of snow since January 2022. So, an A+ is the only grade that makes sense.

That’s frickin awesome man, some more to come, congrats!!!

Thanks man! I wish you could be here for one.

How much do you have Jason?

Hey Don. Sitting at not quite 6.5 inches. Not booming like some, but a steady increase. 

I thought I was done a long time ago, but it has just kept snowing.  Tremendous snow! 

Surprisingly has picked back up! I thought I was done.

I am thrilled! If we got another 5 inches that would put me over a foot and that is WILD. Truly a surprise. 

I hope that you make it! 

Still snowing, but light snow. Probably sitting about 5 inches. Even if it doesn't pick back up, I'm happy.

From about an hour ago. Just beautiful. Falling lightly since but heavier banding showing up on radar.

That's a great picture!

18.1 here, but I am amazed how big the flakes are. 

Absolutely hammering here! My best snow so far. Haven't measured, but I will estimate 4 inches.
