Als23 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I wasn't concerned with power outages because of the powder but the winds are concerning. I get insane sw winds but not so much northern winds. Still a little nervous with the coldest temps in a good while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BhamParker Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Just made it to our cabin! Little bit of snow up here from earlier this week! We have a great view of do downtown Gatlinburg and are walking distance to over Gatlinburg! Just cracked a Michelob ultra after a long ride with our two and four year old! Cheers! . 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 NAM 3K looking good tonight. Seems like the favorable areas along the border will start snowing tomorrow anywhere from 2 to 4 tomorrow and then the other counties will start 7 to 9 tomorrow night and according to the NAM 3k their will be a heavy band of snow coming through around 5 or 6 in the morning then continue to snow through the day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Als23 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I use to love snow as a kid. Would watch Mr Bill early mornings to see if school was closed. Riding home from school hearing on the radio Winter Storm warning now in effect. Times have changed. I'm now a carer for my mother. We don't have a heat backup nor a way to charge her ventilator battery. Wishing for powder and power. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely going to be a dry snow but you may have to worry about the wind Saturday afternoon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sw NC weather Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 We think the Nam is out to lunch on how it handles the upper level low? It’s been jumping all over the place but still gives me some pause because the 3k dried up down this way some to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BhamParker Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 NWS forecast was upped for our area this morning outside of Gatlinburg. They are now saying heavy snow tonight and tomorrow with 3-7 tonight and 3-7 tomorrow!!Probably will be my biggest Gatlinburg chase as they normally are 3-6 total. Christmas 2010 was probably the biggest for me up here. Lake Toxaway in January of 2022 may never be topped. . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 06z HRRR looks solid as well. I think it may have done a bit better than other short range models last weekend besides the thermals. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BretWx Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I think GSP's forecast is solid and right-on. There may be some surprises but about time we're getting some snow! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I am still suffering a bit of PTSD from Helene; and to borrow a term from the movie Spinal Tap; it seems we keep having weather events with something turned up to 11; of course Helene blew up the amp. Very thankful for the powder snow forecast but winds and cold to be cranked up to 11 for this one to follow-up the ice, cold, and wind from last week. Hope everyone stays safe and warm. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 12z HRRR isn't as juiced. Looks decent still but is this just noise or a trend? I'm still riding with the Euro.Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheoahBald1 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I’d bet it’s just noise, if the euro decreases amounts for us at 12z then I’d get concerned. Either way this is gonna be the best event all year imo . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
