Huge flakes at my house. Took a drive over Altamont Rd. (Paris Mtn.) up to 2000 ft. Snowing hard.

39 with sleet beginning to mix in with the rain. More sleet than rain. My elevation is 1077.2 ft. *Update a few minutes later. Snow beginning to mix in too. The changeover to snow begins. Based on the radar and drop in temps, I expect at a couple of inches of snow on the grassy surfaces. Going to be fun to watch.

I'm certainly no expert, but at this point, isn't what is falling out of the sky and the radar more of an indicator than the models?

Please, no snow in Asheville during the SoCon basketball tournament.

Check out the outlook discussion for more details on this possible storm scenario.

Thankfully, the heavy rain never arrived here. We received a steady 1.30 inch rainfall during the night.

Best kind of snow event. Snow all day, sticking to everything except the roads. Beautiful day in Greenville, S.C.!

Fun watching (ESPN3) the Furman Lacrosse team playing in the heavy snow at Paladin Stadium.

No, they called for light snow north of 85. They did miss the heavy snow we are getting, but at least they saw the potential. We love Cedric. He is a good one.

Folks on WYFF got it right.

Weird. NWS has my neighborhood for 1-2 inches this afternoon. If I move the curser around a 1/4 mile from here, it only shows less than 1/2 inch.

Big flakes at my house for the last 15 minutes. Beautiful, no matter how long it lasts!

January gone, already? That’s funny. My calendar says it’s January 5. Seriously folks, get off the ledge. Things can change overnight. You guys depend too much on worthless long term computer models. Rarely are the models right.

Not trying to be political at all. This is funny. https://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/trump-signs-executive-order-giving-him-control-of-weather

Not sure where to post this. John Cessarich is retiring. https://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/life/2019/08/21/wyff-news-4-s-john-cessarich-announces-retirement/2074076001/

Loving the warm weather. Winter is over!

I’m sick of cold and wet. Bring on spring!

And I’ll be happy with my 8” near Paris Mtn. State Park!

Poor guy.

GSP NWS just issued this Special Weather Statement. ...WINTER WEATHER POSSIBLE ACROSS THE WESTERN CAROLINAS AND NORTHEAST GEORGIA THIS WEEKEND... Confidence is increasing that a winter storm will develop this weekend across the region as low pressure tracks across the deep south and moves off the southeast coast on Sunday. The storm has the potential to produce a significant amount of snow across parts of western North Carolina, the northern Upstate of South Carolina, and the mountains of northeast Georgia. Precipitation could begin as early as daybreak Saturday over southwest North Carolina and northeast Georgia, spreading northeast through the day. Conditions may deteriorate from southwest to northeast during Saturday afternoon and evening across the area north of Interstate 85. The precipitation is most likely to fall as snow across most of the mountains, with a heavy accumulation possible Saturday night and Sunday. Snow amounts are still uncertain, but amounts in excess of six inches are possible across the mountains, foothills, and northwest Piedmont of North Carolina. Some sleet and freezing rain could mix in across the Little Tennessee River Valley and along the I-85 corridor. The potential also exists for a corridor of significant ice accumulation across the area south of Interstate 85 Saturday night and Sunday morning. The wintry precipitation may persist across parts of the region through Monday. People with travel plans across the area this weekend should monitor the latest weather forecasts. Future developments will determine when and where a Winter Storm Watch will be issued

Chris and John do a great job for our area. Quite frankly, I’m tired of those that say they hype too much and fail often. We are lucky to have these two in the Upstate.

This one reminds me of the storm of 1988.

It’s Dec. 4th. I’ll take that scenario right now!

Hamilton is in Greenville beginning tomorrow night. I am sure the Peace Center and the folks holding those precious tickets are hoping for no snow.
