2025-2026 Fall/Winter Mountain Thread

Looking at the 3km NAM tonight, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see thunder snow in that band on Wednesday evening. Looks stout at the very least.

21 with diamond dust. It looks like I finished up at 6.75".

Currently 30. I had a trace. Keep adding to those seasonal totals!

When I left my place yesterday at noon, we had 6.5-7" my car to clear off.  Not sure what fell at the house after that since I've not been home since then.  I went to a friend's house in Newland after getting back from JC and I ended up staying the night because the back roads were a mess.  Wonder how much flow snow we get later in the week?

The alpenglow was pretty spectacular this morning around 645.

12z NAM 3km is showing a hell of a Northwest flow tomorrow night. Winds gusting over 40mph for most and temps in the mid 20’s. That’s a good recipe for snow showers to break containment and make it even into the valleys.

18z NAM 3km smokes the high elevations. As I said before this is also a good solution for getting those flakes into the valleys. 30mph winds and temps in the mid 20’s allow those flakes to push out much farther from the higher elevations.

Grateful that we live in such a beautiful region of the state of NC. To God be the glory for all that he has made

Most won’t appreciate how anomalous of a signal it is to see accumulation outputs on models for the South Mountains and Brushy’s.
