    My thermometer hasn't budged off of 33 all day either when high temperatures were forecasted to be in the mid 40's. Too bad it hasn't been colder in the upper levels.
  2. cold air aloft
    Light snow in Maggie Valley.
  3. cold air aloft
    Flurries starting in Canton.
  4. cold air aloft
    We are on track for a few good snow events over the next couple of weeks.
  5. cold air aloft
    This event pretty much sums up our Winter. So close and yet so far.

    The first half of February was always forecasted to be above average temperature wise for basically the entire eastern US. For the mountains (and SE in general) the second half of February and even in to March show promising trends on the models and is consistent with El Nino climatology.

    My daughters are reporting heavy snow at our place in Maggie Valley, we are right at 3,000 feet. I'm at work in Canton, still a cold rain here.

    The snow on the ground in Alabama puts than run in serious question.

    The upcoming pattern is what we want. Several shots of cold air coming in as well as energy available. This isn't the cold, dry pattern we saw last December. Obviously details will be determined, but a few weeks ago many were calling for a torch in mid January. I'm optimistic that we are at least in the game.

    The upcoming pattern looks great. Plenty of snow and cold looks likely over the next couple of weeks.

    Hey, I would take this weather in July if we could get it.

    I believe the mountains are in pretty good shape actually. Having lived here as long as I have, I can't count how many times we've seen models struggle in the 24-36 hour time frame before an event only to swing back to where they were previously. The dynamics are still in place IMO. Heavy precipitation should force just enough cooling for most of us at 2,000 feet elevation and up. We all know any event can go sideways, but I still think many here will be please on Sunday.

    It's like we were all talking about yesterday, it's hard to go against what you've experienced over the years. The occasional surprise is part of the fun of being a weather geek.

    The dogs and I just took a walk in the woods to check things out. A beautiful glaze of ice on the trees and rhododendrons and crunchy sleet/snow/ice on the ground. Temperature currently at 31 here. What a wild night. Snow/sleet/rain/thunder, something for everyone! Fortunately no damage here. Good job by the models on this rare ice event in central Haywood County.

    In their 3 PM update GSP is still sticking to their guns for us getting ice. They are the pros but it's hard to ditch over 40 years of life experience in these parts.
