  1. Yea. I see a lot of folks celebrating the cold dump out west. Sure, it's nice the cold is on this side of the planet for once but it will moderate by the time it gets here, if it actually ever makes it here at all. Just another crappy winter. Sure, we might score in Feb. But, I much prefer my cold and snow in Dec and Jan.
  2. I'm assuming just rain here in Asheville for the weekend. But, still maintaining some hope for later in jan/early Feb.
  3. Keep it up with the model play by plays, Met and WNCSnow. Appreciate it!
  4. When's the last time one of these ice events came to fruition? I think the last major ice event I had was in 2003 or 2004. Lots of little glaze events but nothing major since.
  5. Quite a SER showing up on the GFS. Parade of cutters and rain. Blah
  6. You can tell things look bleak when people are quiet throughout the 12Z GFS run.
  7. Hard to stay optimistic given how awful the past few winters have been. If we've been struggling up here, imagine how our piedmont and coastal friends are feeling. I'd just like one big storm to track. We haven't even had that in forever.
  8. Haha. Got excited because I saw the "Hot Thread" tag and it's been a while since I've seen one of those around here. Unforutnately, looks like things aren't heading in the right direction. Still time but I'd just hate to punt the first half of January.
  9. You know things are looking bad when Met is also negative. He’s usually my positive force on this board haha
  10. Rainstorm after rainstorm. Precip doesn’t seem to be the issue but we can’t even get cold enough during January? Just disappointing
  11. Yep. We’re going back into that classic winter pattern of “cold rain” and then dry when the actual cold shows up. Just an annoying last few years. Not even a threat to track for more than a day.
  12. Really thought this first week of January would be a good opportunity for us. Alas, more of the same. At least it will be chilly
  13. Chilly 19 for me. I'm still very intrigued by the Dec 28-Jan 4 time period for us. A mix of some upslope events and potential for more of a board-wide event.
  14. I will say that time-period of Dec 28-Jan 3 holds some interesting potential for the WNC crew.
  15. I'm suprised at the lack of wind here. I'm usually very gusty but my Tempest has my highest gust of 15mph so far...
  16. Great to see some snow last night but that long-range pattern looks rough. Christmas temps been creeping up on the GFS higher and higher.
  17. Heavy graupel/snow mix right now! Already made the trip up here worth it.
  18. Still mostly rain here at 4600’. I’ve seen a flake or two mix in but the wind is ripping.
  19. I’m at 4600’ up in Banner Elk. 36 degrees and dropping quickly now. Steady drizzle
  20. Drove through Burnsville and Spruce Pine on my way to Banner Elk. Was in the 50s the whole drive but just hit 43 up here at Monteagle/Rocky Knob. Hope to see the flakes fly soon!
  21. Might not see much but I'm headin up to Banner Elk. Just don't think I'll have many (if any) other opportunities to see snow through the rest of the month/early Jan. Modeling is concering.
  22. Thinking of making the drive up to Beech/Banner Elk tomorrow afternoon. Haven't chased in a while and it would be fun to see some flakes fly before tholiday.
  23. Saw a flake or two mixed in here in Asheville. Actually a pretty nice soaking drizzle otherwise
