wncsnow Posted Tuesday at 02:51 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:51 PM Another beautiful drive to Asheville today. Light dusting of snow in Old Fort turned into rime ice on the mountain with the fog and sun breaking through. Wish i could have taken some pictures. As I posted a week or so ago, the pattern is going to likely break down and we are going to warm up for at least a week before Christmas. What happens after that is up in the air but the current colder than normal pattern isn't one that's right for snow for us. We need- 1. A sharper western ridge in the right place- This will lead to energy diving further south to get it where we need it instead of over the Ohio valley. We need it to drop down across the front range. 2. Better southern stream energy. We need a phase to get our best snows and right now the northern stream is squashing the southern stream enough to prevent that. 3. Cold air damming and a 50/50 low to keep it in place. This one might be the most key. The pattern has still been progressive and any highs have been weak or moving away too quickly. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculus1 Posted Friday at 03:19 PM Share Posted Friday at 03:19 PM It didn't last long, and radar does not look promising for much (if any) more, but it was fun to see fall for a few minutes. Mood flakes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BooneWX Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Very nice day. It felt good to get outside. I even took the fly rod down to the pond near my house just to see if the bass were biting (they weren’t). I figured that’d be the case with the cold water temps but this warmup should get them stirring again. I might have to take a trip up the mountain to do a little trout fishing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
