  1. Heavy downpours sound good to me. I hope the “gloom and doom” forecasts continue. We need the rain. Selfishly, I want it to rainout the couple of neighbors that shoot their little fireworks well after midnight.
  2. We don't near bitter cold either. Concerned about the peach crop.
  3. I’m sick of cold and wet. Bring on spring!
  4. Is there such a thing as sustainable cold in the south?
  5. And I’ll be happy with my 8” near Paris Mtn. State Park!
  6. 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
  7. 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.
  8. This one reminds me of the storm of 1988.
  9. It’s Dec. 4th. I’ll take that scenario right now!
  10. 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.

  12. Looks like it’s headed back over the Atlantic after it cuts through Southport. That’s bad news for MB.
  13. I feel bad for the folks holding the World Equestrian Games in Tryon. Tens of thousands of visitors are in the area for at least the next two weeks. https://tryon2018.com/
  14. Up to this point, I was trying to get my son and daughter in law to leave Chapel Hill and come here. Now it looks like there is just as much potential for worse weather here than in CH. I guess it will be Thursday before we know where it’s going after it hits near the N.C./SC line.
  15. Our local WYFF guys are wondering if the disturbance just west of Key West might be enough to push Florence a little more east and north. That disturbance is moving north. They are not saying it will have an impact. They are only saying it’s something to keep an eye on.
  16. Snow mixing in with rain at the base of Paris Mtn. in Greenville. All snow as you head up Altamont Rd.
