Met1985 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 What a weird day with the temps today. Only had a morning time low of 55 then got up to 63 but have dropped down to 49 already and that's our low also so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Might need to keep an eye on Thanksgiving. The GFS and Canadian suggest a strong cold front, a deep trough with a trailing wave along the Gulf could bring snow chances to the Mountains. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 From Allan Huffman Well for all you #SSWE people out there. Today's 00z EPS showed all members (100%) showing a 10mb U wind reversal over the north pole around 11/28 to 11/29. The implications, are enhanced blocking risk in December and the possibility that the SPV will be further receptive to weakening later in the Winter which could influence the mid/late Winter.Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted Monday at 08:20 AM Share Posted Monday at 08:20 AM Very heavy frost to the Valley floor this morning with a low of 30. Strong cold front arrives Tuesday night/Wednesday morning and actually stays chilly into the weekend. My point and click forecast has lows in the upper 20’s Wednesday morning, 22 Thursday morning and 19 Friday morning. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted Tuesday at 01:25 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:25 PM Looking like the so called 'torch' is done. Honestly I enjoy watching folks hang their hat on the model runs and buying the "warmanistas" endless chatter. Great snow making weather ahead for Cataloochee and they liking resume operations Thanksgiving Day. All the talk of the dreaded SE Ridge appears to be waning. It looks like chilly weather with the possibility of wintry mischief early next week. My point and click now has lows of 17 Friday and Saturday mornings. Happy Thanksgiving Mountain folk! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted Wednesday at 09:30 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:30 AM Someone could see a bit of NWFS this evening and overnight as a bit of moisture moves overhead. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted Wednesday at 10:22 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:22 AM Could see some flakes tomorrow for Thanksgiving. Going to be freaking cold too just in time for Thanksgiving. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted Wednesday at 10:31 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:31 AM Some people love to trash the GFS. It picked up this possibility a week ago. I've learned in my 50+ years of closely monitoring the weather that you use all the tools in the toolbox when analyzing patterns and possibilities... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted yesterday at 09:12 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:12 AM Happy Thanksgiving everyone! My low was 27 this morning and the snow guns are blowing all over Cataloochee.

Maggie Valley Steve Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago GSP posted on X that day is the coldest Thanksgiving Day in 10 years. Cataloochee has been making snow nonstop for over 24 hours now. Conditions should be awesome up on the Mountain when they reopen tomorrow morning! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago 17 this morning in the Valley. We could see a bit more widespread NWFS Sunday evening. Another chance on Tuesday night . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC ASW Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Good afternoon Mountain Thread...new American Wx member here, just moved to NC mountains...or more correctly, the eastern edge between Chimney Rock and Asheville, very near the escarpment. Long time Am Wx lurker, going back to my days living in Northern VA, and reading the infamous Mid Alt sub forum. In fact, I still speak of a walk in the snow, ice, or just bone numbing cold, as a "Jebwalk"., as do some on this board...my two now adult children know this term, and like to check in on me when winter weather is present, and ask if a Jebwalk is on the agenda. In any event, having just moved from Souhtport, NC, I have enjoyed the "real" fall weather in Sep and Oct this year, and am now looking forward to "real" winter weather this winter. I am a bit too far east for NWFS, but occasionally I hope to see flizzards break containment...and otherwise looking fowward to potential winter storms that might bring accumulating snow to this elevation... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago The Friday afternoon update from the Climate Prediction Center suggests we stay cold and wet until the 26th of December. It's been a while since I've seen them this bullish on cold and wet for an extended period during the winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
