WNC_Fort Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Maybe we can at least say a Winter Storm Watch and likelihood of a warning is an improvement over the last few years. Used to be a few advisories every year and 1 or 2 warning level events. But, it’s been so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDawg Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I got 1.6" snow .95 freezing rain Sleet predominant or mixed 10 AM to 11 PM Saturday. Wind gusts low 20s at height of freezing rain.... Would be a catastrophe if that comes to pass. Actually terrified of the 100'+ oak trees around my house in this instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Rutherford up to Wilkes look like ground zero for ZR with the way it trending. We gotta pray for sleet or we are dealing with serious powergrid issues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to stop by Lowes in Statesville for non-storm related stuff, but lady at checkout said they were out of generators already. They might get more, but that gives you an idea. If anyone needs one, I would start looking around soon. Looked like holiday traffic on US 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad we got one, even though its a smaller one it will take care of heat at least.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNC_Fort Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Little rant: We have a -NAO. Strong high pressure. Plenty of moisture for once. Plenty of cold air. And we can’t snow? It’s just so frustrating to see what could have/should have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BooneWX Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Idk about yall but I’m glad it’s going to miss firmly to the north. I can cope more missing it by a mile. A Virginia storm would’ve hurt but with a couple more ticks, Virginia is getting a devastating ice storm and we may go unscathed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago At this point its hard to bet against it continuing to move north until go time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
