We are headed that way now from shelby Met or AsheCounty might be your guys for this question but it should be snowing off and on all day, but late morning-early afternoon looks prime with the upper level energy swinging through. If it’s snow you’re looking for and Boone doesn’t deliver, you can always head west to Banner Elk - or at least that’s what I always did while snow chasing in college.

Local Yokel Wx Posted January 16 Nice snow globe action this morning in Waynesville, not sticking but pretty. Only trace amounts grass, deck, and cars @WxKnurd, my buddy up Chad Crawford sent me some pics. Solid dusting up to a half inch he said (around 9:45am). 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely at half an inch-plus now. 23 on the truck thermometer. Headed to Mt Sterling area to do some exploring. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Met1985 Posted January 16 Well it is hammering in town. Very low ceiling at the moment. Seems like this snow is coming in a squall. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wife sent a picture of the deck and looked like we are past an inch and working on a second now at home. Just measured 2 inches on the upper deck. The driveway had melted off by about 11 AM, but now it totally covered again. Wind has picked up and I can't see Town Hall now with these very low visibilities. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
