Didn't have my good camera but caught these beautiful mammatus clouds as they drifted over Mt. Pisgah this morning. Wish I would of had the Dslr. Anyone see the sunrise this morning? The past 3 sunrises and sunsets have been absolutely amazing with the various mares tail and strata cloud forms! Just another reason to love living here.

I went and watched for about an hour on the parkway but didn't see anything :/

 

I decided to not go since kp value wasn't good enough for me to risk my life driving up Blue Ridge Parkway by myself. Had a close call once in the past and was not willing to go up there again at night unless there's something epic going on.

Sunrise this morning was AMAZING when I woke up. Sadly I was too sleepy to take pictures quickly, but I'm with you on sunrises/sunsets last three days! Wish I had time away from my stupid midterms to take pictures with DSLR :(

Agreed Met. Teens looking very likely next weekend. Hoping we can get by April without another late hard freeze. Don't want a repeat of last years late April at 20 again. Definitely would not be surprised to see the flakes again. Would actually fit with the early 4 inches on Halloween.

Yeah the cold shot look impressive with a couple of snow chances according to the gfs. I could see highs back down in the 30s abs lows in the teens. Yeah have to watch out for dogwood and black berry winters. They always get you.

So far I like our snow chances for this weekend and much colder air on the way.

 

I will be on the mountain top tomorrow afternoon through the weekend for a change.  Will take some pics if the snow showers develop as expected. Might get a heavy dusting. Looks like it will only be 16 degrees up there during the day Saturday..yikes! :)

The nws has increased pops for tomorrow through Saturday for rain and snow. Temps are going to be a shock to the system as well. High for Saturday looks like about 32 degrees with a low of 16 now for Sunday morning

 

Maybe 2 to 3 in the Smokies and 1-2 for the rest of the border counties
