Cloud deck has lowered after a foggy day, I’ll take Hunter’s 2-4” call for my area for this event and run with it.
-
Truck (which was clear when I went to bed) looks to have a 1/4” of melting slush on it. So I think it’s safe to say 3/4” total from yesterday afternoon and overnight/this morning. Penny, nickle and dimed to ~13” for a season total so far. Crazy totals for the NWFS. Can’t wait to get some obs from @snowbird1230 on the Cherohala Skyway totals.

Looks like we got some slop after I went to bed last night that is now starting to melt off and wash away in the rain along with the snow from yesterday afternoon. Ready to see what happens in my neck of the Balsams with this flow.
-
Wind is howling out there here in the Balsams.
-
I’m thinking the wind here is playing a role in that stark a difference, you do usually run a few degrees colder than me just due to where you are in the county and then 200’ more in elevation. I could hear it picking up earlier even though it’s calm again now. Still not expecting more than a brief start as snow before it turns into a mix and eventually all rain, but everything is froze solid so I’ve got that going for me before that moisture gets here.
-
Dang Met, you sure that thermometer isn’t broken? You are one degree colder than it is up at 6000’ on Lynn Lowry lol.
-
Came home to 1/2" and cloudy skies with the sun wanting to peak through out to the west.
-
Wife says it’s snowing good at the house and already everything is covered. Started as a mix out here and now light snow where I am but you can’t see the mountains across 40 now. I’m sure when I get back on the the interstate and head towards Waynesville it will be ripping
-
35 when I left the house, definitely raw out there. Doing some scouting for summertime fishing on the Pigeon below Waterville, brought the fly rod to see if anything wants to bite.
-
Patiently waiting for my mixed bag that will be mostly rain I’m sure . Flow setup looks to be great, maybe I can eek out an inch or two depending on the angle (although the strength looks to be that that could happen anyway). Man, STILL waiting to experience a Miller A since moving here. 2 years on the 15th.

Got a trace in Balsam
-
Plain old rain here, not expecting more than a dusting below 3500.
-
If there was one place I’d want to be tonight and Sunday it would be Ashe, y’all should do good.
-
Not expecting much down our way tomorrow night into Thursday, right along the border and over on the Park side of Maggie should do good with some backside flow snow but I’ll be surprised if we break 1” in Balsam. Sunday is what I’m looking at, either way I’ll have an interesting drive up to southern WV for work come Monday.
-
Measured 3/4” to 1” here.
-
Coming down pretty good out there, we’ll see what I wake up to.
-
Got a dusting with nothing falling right now.
-
Flurries outside here as well.

I came home yesterday evening and we had 1/2” or so laying around. My wife said the sun came out after it stopped snowing and it just “defluffed” lol. Pretty sure being we are south facing and the temp in the 20’s with a real dry snow resulted in a good bit of sublimation of what the actual total was which I know was at least an inch (I’m gonna guess we ended up between 1 and 2 as we had 1/2” when I left before 11 am and she sent me a picture 1.5 hours later of double that with it still ripping). My rough calculations puts us at 12”+ for a season total which I think is a touch more than what we ended up with last season. No clue on the exact average here but my estimate based on what I can find is it’s something like 20-30”, so I’ll call it halfway there. Thus far we’ve had cold, one decent flow snow for my location that was more than the typical dusting to an inch, snow on the ground Christmas, snow multiple times a week, etc. I’d call that a good start considering we are still in mid-January, especially when you look at the past 5 years.
-
Flurries off and on here above the Pigeon. On top of a waterfall at an undisclosed location up above 40 and the river.
-
Real heavy, it was putting it down when I drove through. Wife sent a picture of the deck and looked like we are past an inch and working on a second now at home.
-
It’s coming down good. Definitely at half an inch-plus now. 23 on the truck thermometer. Headed to Mt Sterling area to do some exploring.
-
Was coming down better than at any point Monday while waking our dogs earlier, solid dusting getting up towards 1/2” now.
-
Crazy you had snow since 5 and down below you it didn’t start up til 7:45-8ish. Coming down steadier now, comes and goes in steadiness. Light dusting on everything here as well.
-
Yep, light snow started falling about 20 minutes ago here. Really more like big flakes flurries.
