or yeah - what he said

My somewhat scientific (but not professional meteorological) answer. Asheville is in a basin completely surrounded by higher terrain. Orographic lifting on the periphery (windward), downsloping and for various reasons - less precip. on the leeward. I believe its true Asheville and Roanoke, VA are historically the "driest" urban/metro areas East of the Mississippi due to similar geographic situations.

I've seen it before. Alamance Co.: Swepsonville - frz rain/sleet/very little snow mix. They ended with a sloppy <1" accumulation. 4.8miles as the crow flies - Hwy 62/Alamance Rd exit (Home Depot/Sheetz) pouring big snow. I'm 2mi. NW of there - we ended with 5-6" of all snow if memory serves me....I-40/85 is real. Hold the Line.

Oh how I miss Boone winters....and football......and food....

Well - of 272 NFL games this year, there's a running average of 13.5 games that go to OT. So there's always that 5% of OT turning out in our favor....and look how much chaos ensues after the 2min warning.

Well - if you know what freezes over - i'll meet ya'll for a good plate of 'cue, burger, or a hazy IPA if that's your thing....lil' ol' Graham is coming around....there's even a little barcade we can rent out....do i smell a Spring Equinox party?

1 mi ESE of Elon. Microscopic flurries.

point is - the atmosphere "appears" to be juicing up. And we already have groundtruthing in areas lacking echoes- most recently union co. nc

sharing is caring and winning is giving.... let's reel it in!

its already been eluded to - but radar beginning to liven up - particularly around Wadesboro, Albemarle, and most noticeably to the west - Wilkes County.

1 mi. ESE of Elon and i'm finally seeing flakes mixed in @ 7:09pm - 34.9 degrees
