Met1985 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Just now, wncsnow said: NW flow really saving yall Yeah man it does. We get the majority of our seasonal average with upslope snow. Look at @Buckethead annual snowfall. I mean he's high in elevation but he can average like 70 plus and get a foot during a good flow snow event. He'll he probably just about matches Roan mountain. We don't need synoptic along the border bro. We just need great forcing, cold air, and the right wind direction to cash in. I've actually seen where we get a synoptic storm but then we get more flow snow than we do synoptic snow. Flow snow is our bread and butter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago 3 minutes ago, wncsnow said: Look at my chart of Boone. So you're telling me you have seen more snow than Boone during that time period? I think we all get caught up in 2 or 3 inch events when the long term average is still much higher than what we have been getting recently. What is your average in Maggie Valley? I'm guessing closer to 30 inches long term. Maggie Valleys average is 8 to 10 inches a year. I've surpassed for the last 6 years and already well on the way to surpass the average again this winter. We need a big synoptic storm Region wide to calm the Mountain envy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm averaging about 51" over the last 8 seasons (2022-2024 really pulled that average down), and I would guess that >90% of my snow is NWF.Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you had a lot of 75" seasons in the past. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
