  1. Yancey and Mitchell Counties already cancelled classes tomorrow. They usually wait until 5am.
  2. I think after getting snakebit when they issued the WSW's a couple months ago, they're thinking is they can always upgrade the wwa in the morning. Can't say that I blame them. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  3. I'm amped now. Just got new Nitto Grapplers put on my truck this morning too. Might be going up on the Bald for this one.
  4. His graphic included the euro, gfs and nam. It showed .3" on the euro for KAVL...wasn't that the 0z run? Did he not even look at 12z?
  5. Something tells me he's waiting until tomorrow afternoon's model runs before he calls for anything different.
  6. Dude, he gets dragged on social media. Kinda feel bad to see it because he's a really nice guy personally. A couple of weeks ago someone asked him on facebook if WLOS needed us to set up a GoFundMe for better forecasting equipment.
  7. Jason Boyer says forget about the nam, it ain't happening...because, you know...it's Jason Boyer. He doesn't like snow...he's told me as much. I'd like to know his reasoning behind that, but gave none.
  8. Okay, now I'm in. Between this and the Euro caving north, I'm liking our odds of something decent. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  9. I learned something new today! Thanks for that insight, Hunter.
  10. Still, it's hard to discount it. I've gotten pumped for many a storm that every model had with the exception of the euro and ukie. Most of those times, yall know who won. I am very optimistic though regardless, just wary.
  11. Exactly why I was waiting on today's 12z euro before I get excited.
  12. I wasn't completely awake yet earlier, obviously. I remember that one well, it was the first double digit snowfall after we moved here. Picked up 11.25". Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  13. I searched for snowfall maps from that event but only came up with badly pixelated maps. It looks like most of WNC picked up half a foot from that with Mt. Mitchell picking up 25". You have grabbed my attention, Hunter.
  14. I feel lucky to live on Big Bald because I get to see this stuff so often. So, so drastically different from living south of Columbia and in Northern Texas before that. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  15. Putting down a dusting up here. Looked like it was coming down harder coming up Scronce Creek a minute ago than it is here. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  16. Yup, 29 with light snow here too. Edit: it lasted about ten minutes.
  17. Down to 34 here already. It really cooled down this afternoon.
  18. Once the rain moved out we were left with super dense fog. Now we have the dense fog and the rain. Oh, and lots and lots of mud.
  19. https://mobile.twitter.com/NWSCPC/status/1226866908479160323?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-3944355110867719083.ampproject.net%2F2001281851410%2Fframe.html
  20. I'm not ready to throw in the towel. As Joe can tell you, our corner of Yancey county can score well into April.
  21. There's an area from far NEGA and the tip of SC that runs through much of WNC and ETN into Virginia actually classified as a temperate rainforest. I thought a rainforest by definition receives 100" of rain equivalent annually, but I've seen information in several places that refers to that entire area as one.
  22. I see some more radar returns upstream in ETN. Maybe a little more later on, doubt it'll be much though.
  23. Picked up an inch in the last hour. Nickel sized flakes. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
  24. Over 1.5" now and it's absolutely dumping right now. 4-5" total on the roads here. Lots of ski tourists staying here without 4wd and trying to drive around...you can imagine how that's going. It took 45 minutes just to check the mail 1.5 miles away.
