Lol. I like all these guys, but at 2200 feet, I am a mountain guy ... without the mountain results lately. I appreciate the invite. I will bounce back and forth.

Westmc9th is Asheville. We suck at snow, but we are not foothills, lol. Nothing wrong with the foothills though.... And wncsnow is just negative. He means no harm. He would be excited as anybody if we could get snow.

Ha! Ha! Yes. I don't hold out much hope for it, but I might as well ride something good until the ultimate 43 degree wind driven drizzle.

I have thrown in all my chips on the wrf-arw! https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/analysis/models/?model=wrf-arw&region=us&pkg=ref_frzn

Not in this particular thread, "The Mountain Thread". For the SE forum as a whole, I'm sure you are correct.

This is the first time that I have been optimistic in 2 years. I think we have a good chance to at minimum to finally get at least an inch.

I haven't posted anything this winter. It has seemed pretty definite that everything will turn to trash the closer the model runs come to the event. NWS has downtown staying all rain, not even a sleet pellet and only "maybe" an inch where I am in Candler. So, hoping for a miracle. Seems like we are due. Anyway, I would like to concur with the compliments from above. I know so many people that say, I listen to this guy, lol. I say, Hunter?? Yeah, that's him. You do a great job, right or wrong and you are right more often than not. But, I don't envy anybody forecasting around here !!! So, keep doing doing what you are doing. People appreciate it. ... And this is not to minimize any other local forecaster.

That may be on the low end IF the models are correct. A big IF.

33 here. I wish it was 50. If there is no snow, I am ready for warmth.

I am not sure it is trending better yet.... Maybe on the operational GFS. The ensembles and the Euro show a pretty weak system. Hopefully, though, the GFS is correct and we get one last good snow before the warm up. I appreciate your optimism though.

10.5 at the airport as of midnight last night. I am not sure if they got much after midnight. It was pretty bare over there when I took my daughter home. I am at 16 inches at my house.

Wow!!!! Crazy totals. Crazy !!!

I got over an inch with that 1st batch yesterday and thought wow I overachiever. I have a little less than 5 inches this morning here in Candler!!! Unreal. I have seen pictures in Swannanoa and East Asheville of 8 inches. I have seen reports of a dusting in some places. Best NW flow since I lived in Leicester 10 years ago. MET 1985 and Hunter nailed this one.

One heck of a snow shower with very heavy snow. Has stopped for the moment.

The snow is beautiful. A beautiful blanket of snow and the trees covered in snow. I went to get my daughter in Arden and there was nothing.

I am down to 35. Yard, cars and trees getting white.

It is great snow. Straight Down. Big flakes. Down to 36. Maybe it will start sticking soon.

Really snowing good. I hate that it is 37. At least it is slowly going down.

Snowing pretty good in Candler also. Down to 37. Need a few more degrees.

That air is really dry. Just the weight lifting, in shape flakes are making it through. The couch potato flakes are still laying down watching the big screen

Snowing here. Not heavy, but big huge flakes. Still sitting at 40 degrees though.

39 here in Candler with a dew point of 24

Updated GSP discussion indicates a slower trough and longer NW flow. Their updated snow prediction map upped AVL from .4 to 1.2.

Showed some returns over us. Just virga. Maybe not too long.

Our hope levels are the same. Cover the ground. Everything else is just gravy. I hope your friends have fun and see lots of snow!
