Ernest T Bass

Our son got home from App State today. Fortunately, we were able to communicate with him and knew he was ok. Worse thing was landslide blocked them into their apartment complex for part of Friday. They were able to get out Saturday and get some supplies but came home since no power and no class for days. He and his friends certainly were luckier than a lot of others. I had a bad feeling about this storm with all the rain in advance of the actual hurricane, but I'm still shocked at how bad it was and deeply saddened for WNC, E TN and all the rest.

3.75 here since Tues am. Feel for you folks in the mountains that are really getting hit hard.

only 1.8" here but it was the perfect soaker

4" rain total here from the storm

3.8-inch rain since 7/24, and the crazy part is we have missed some big storms or gotten fringed, but still managed that much in basically a week.

Just had heavy rain and small hail. Had some small hail Friday too and Saturday was about a washout of a day. The stormy week looks to continue if the forecast is right.

Yeah I remember that, but not the one I really meant. The one I was thinking of was just a US Map with color blobs for the precip types. They would scroll through the days. It was like a pre-cursor to model watching.

The 7 Day Business Planner on TWC was the longest range you could see back in the 80's. Catching that after school each day was a priority. I remember watching the trends from rain/snow to mix to snow. You knew it was on then. Of course, sometimes even then, it went the other way too.

Getting a few, and I mean few, flakes. It's not much, but more than I've seen in 2 years.

Unless they start a NW Piedmont thread, I'm going to hang here. We need a storm with a NE wind cold feed. I don't know much, but I know that.

I shouldn't have complained about missing the rain over the last couple of weeks. We got pounded with probably the worst storm of the summer. Lightening took out a TV and some outdoor lights. Oh well, at least it wasn't worse than that.

Yeah you would think there would be a thread in the SE Forum, but try the one in Tropical HQ if you haven't already.

29 and icy here Part of the driveway which is shaded is icy; rest looks wet. Trees with a solid glaze.

Light flurries. Don't expect much here, but good luck further east.

Right at 6 inches of snow and sleet. Might get a little more if that band over the upstate holds together. Very light snow at the moment.
