  1. Lucky you, we got an entire truck load of Starlink delivered to us holler folk back during Helene. We get to be a thorn in your arse well into night.
  2. The NAM just came in juicier than previous runs, for WNC.
  3. Great place! Spent many a night at Peg Leg Petes and McGuire's
  4. Don, I have a special place in my heart for the Gulf Coast. I was stationed at NAS Pensacola, and spent some time at the NCBC Gulfport and New Orleans. Great people, great region! I could not be happier for you folks.
  5. What was the result of the balloon sounding? I’ve been waiting to hear.
  6. I may be mistaken, but I don't believe that's the LOW we're tracking. I believe that is the same surface low that showed up on the 12z NAM yesterday and was chalked up to a reflection of the northern stream wave.
  7. That upper graphic is wild. There are 8 different QPF gradients in Henderson and Transylvania Counties.
  8. Yea, I would say upsloping over the Black Mountains would be the plausible answer.
  9. I'd kill for a Cedar Swamp, 12" of fresh powder and some sticky buns.
  10. Exactly what I was about to say but in all fairness, they likely have the toughest forecasting region East of the Mississippi hence why they're habitually thorough.
  11. I think you can extend that eastern heavy snow boundary all the way to the escarpment but overall a good sign. The latest ICON run looked good for WNC as well.
  12. Good call but overall a decent setup for the mountains. @franklin NCwx might be have the best seat in the house!
  13. To be fair to Met, the mountains have had a few decent snow events during those years.
  14. It's heartbreaking to see our beloved mountains in the shape they are. But we will prevail! I hope everyone on this forum is safe and has what they need. If you do no not, do not hesitate to reach out!
  15. No offense taken, I get that's your relationship to the mountains of NC but what's funny to me is the High Country feels less mountainous than the areas you don't associate with the mountains. Yes, you're higher elevation but there's more waterfalls, rocky terrain and overall mountainous features in the Southern Mountains of the Pisgah/Nantahala and Smoky Mountain regions.
  16. I just got one question Met: Why are we posting foliage pics in the Spring/Summer thread?! Somebody has to fire up the Fall/Winter thread and if there is any hope for a decent winter in WNC, it can't be me.
  17. Shew! Not liking the trends for Helene's impacts on WNC. Going to be a tense few days.
