All those getting snow enjoy, not looking good for my place right now to see anything more than some mood flakes. Feels like an above 4000-4500’ storm as it stands right now here in NE Haywood. Ah what could have been overnight, maybe the deform band will save this area later this morning and afternoon.

Well, it pretty much hung around 32 and rained all night. I’m sure there was sleet mixed in too. 33 and more rain and sleet now.

30.7/30 and rain. Deck is wet and a little slushy but thats about it. GSP dead on with the warm nose, now we wait and see if and when changeover is.

32 with heavy rain/snow/sleet mix. Deck is getting crunchy. If this switches to and stays all snow sooner rather than later it would pile up IMO.

35.6 with the same slop you reported earlier.

Moderate sleet, 41/19.

I’ve had a steady drop in dew point the past hour, temp dropped half a degree but dew point has fallen 9 degrees. 43/17 now with a wet bulb down to 33. Gonna be razor close for sure like @Met1985said.

43.5/26, 36 for the wet bulb

They issued a watch, not a warning guys. Which is refreshing for once because they haven’t issued a watch since I don’t know when. And snow total forecast has been lowered since this morning. It is what it is.

3” gives me double digits for the year (and it’s already mid-Feb). I feel like that’s not asking for much just below a 4000’ ridge line in a NWFS area but this winter it seems it is. ULL are so tricky I would not want to be a forecaster whether behind the scenes or in the media. I’m already prepared for Spring to be like all the past recent ones I.e. not Spring like at all and messing up fishing conditions. All I have to say is when the tide changes we are due for a big storm or “bad” (good if you like cold and snow) winter in order to average things out. Cyclical nature and all that.

He just filtered it by elevation. Looks like he’s saying above 1200’ is where accumulation would be and the. Going from there i.e. above 3500’ =5-7”, above 5000’ = 7-9”.

If things hold out through tonight’s runs then I’ll have to start making some contingencies on this weekends plans possibly. Might be no trip to downtown Asheville for a pre-Valentines lunch and festivities on Saturday lol.

Haywood has been the jackpot for the southern mountains every run it seems. 48 more hours to go.

Give me a blend of those outputs and I think all us mountain and foothill folks will be happy, especially if you have elevation.

Can I cash out now? For whatever reason and whatever happens with this weekend, I think we have a few more surprises in store between now and May. Odds say we are due for a big storm in March, mountains seem to average a big one (I’d even say one that has blizzard conditions) about every 30 years it seems (Haywood had ‘34 or ‘36, then you had the end of February and March of 1960 with the 3 straight weeks of storms and finally everyone knows ‘93).

Hit 17 around 1-2 am time frame but up to 24 at daybreak.

39 and a cold rain at 3800’ in Haywood

21 this morning, crisp perfect morning with the .25-.5” of snow I got yesterday still coating everything. Might drive up to Max Patch later to see how they did. Hopefully can get another light coating tomorrow night, I’ll penny (can’t even calm that amount a nickel) my way to double digits this thus-far anemic season if I have to!

27 with a heavy dusting of a .25 inch. Wasn’t home overnight and just got back so could have had a tinge more but no clue. Flizzard has stopped for now.

No doubt!

Hit 52 around noon then it clouded up, down to 45. Lot of melt today.

Highly suggest the mountain and foothills crew checkout the pattern thread in the TN Valley forum if you aren’t already, Carver does great write-ups. Outside of Larry (GAwx) on our side, their pattern discussion blows our forum’s away right now. Lot more info discussed regardless of good or bad pattern, lot less whining.

It makes sense in my head lol. A year in and I’m still learning the nuances of my new location.

Good Lord, at 7 am it was 38.7 over here. I know you are in a bowl but either the inversion setup crazy fast in our 300’ elevation difference or one didn’t setup over on your ridge. Saw 24 down in the valley last night while my weather station was reading 34 (thinking it could have been reading a few degrees to warm as the snow was stiffened up and melt water was frozen and my usually accurate truck thermometer was reading 28).
