This would be about average for the high elevation areas for first flakes.

A beautiful sunrise yesterday morning.

A beautiful picture perfect day today! A high of 60 degrees with overcast weather all day. Temps down into the 50s and it's beautiful! Been waiting on this for a month!

It looks like Thursday into Friday will be the transition day.

We will finally cool down to near normal this weekend but what has my eye is the following mid week when a true cold front pushed much colder air in here. We need the cooler weather and more moisture and I think we will get both.

Thats a pipe dream bro.

If you love summer then don't worry it is going to stick around for a bit...

The rest of the month is going to be very warm...

We are expected to get some heavy rainfall here in the SW mountains. No surprise as we are continuing to run well above normal in precipitation this year alone. We are some 4 to 7 inches above normal already.

Yeah hitting a lot of the hardest hit areas this past month.

Nice man. Good to see you posting with this event coming up.

You should be in a prime spot for this one. Actually I think most of the mountains could get a foot plus.

I'm not saying it's too cold to snow. All im saying is we live in the SE. Historically in some of our coldest months ever they have been some of our least snowiest months around here. It is a well known fact that a lot of the big snowstorms we see around here we get with temps right around 30 degrees. Yes i have seen it snow around 0 degree but we did not get a foot of snow from that. Having such cold high pressure systems bearing down on the region is hurting our chances for snow as we have already seen with basically two systems disappearing.

Lol! Also the truth hurts feelings too.

Lol she deleted one of my post telling Grit that the trends on the models where getting worse. I could care less. The too cold too snow and people trying to talk themselves into believing it will snow in there backyard are funny. Its like every new update is the same thing. Trough is sharper it looks better through about hour 54, Mack comes in BOOM we are going to have a great run then it just takes a nose dive!

Why would it with massive high pressure building in. Have you not seen the extreme cold coming in?

Yeah if we get what looks to be coming then a lot of people will be caught off guard. The roads could be a disaster.

It sure is along with the southern facing mountains in SW NC.

Actually with the way things have trended we are left high and dry. No moisture around.

No kidding! I was looking at the snow all the way into Mexico and along the Gulf coast in Louisiana, Alabama, and parts of the Panhandle. Shoot even New Orleans kind of got in on that run. Pretty crazy how the trough is oriented then the moisture comes in deep.

Congrats gulf coast on this run.

Lol count on it. I was thinking the same thing.

Fire up the grill! Mixed drinks and burgers everyone!

What wait you serious?

Yeah do not come to the moutains with 2wd. Just too dangerous and everything is going to stick at once here. Current temps are in the mid to low 20s .
