Temp is 36 degrees and looks like the GFS was right with this one.

Looking at temperature profiles and rainfall totals in the valleys I estimate 2 inches of snow has fallen on top of the Balsams although it appears to be tapering off. Another 1 or 2 inches expected again tonight with a clipper zipping by.

Still raining in Asheville and was suppose to already have changed to snow.  Just don't think we're going to see it.  Still 40 in Asheville.  Think this one is a dud. :cry:

Per web cams, changeover to snow in Boone is complete. Never thought it would take that long, Going to be hard pressed to see snow in Asheville with this first system. Maybe tonight or tomorrow morning early.

Congrats on those who saw snow. We got a mix here but that was about it. Well I like the look of the clipper system coming in tonight and tomorrow. GSP has a winter weather advisory out for us.

Ray seems to think that this system will a little be more robust than what GSP and WLOS are thinking.

I think that's his combo map for both systems.  That's why the high totals.  Of course, last night's totals did not materialize in the Smokies area of the WNC mountains.
