We're less than a day away my foothill friends. How we feeling?
-
Post-storm we should have a conversation about the lack of engagement the Blacksburg office has with it's NC counties for warnings. They fail to post advisories for events compared to GSP when it comes to the mountains/foothills. I think we need an Asheville or Hickory NWS.
-
Sorry guys, I got optimistic again and the NAM had to come ruin it for us all . In general though, I'm glad to see QPF tick up. I find it odd that warm temps would be our issue but I guess we shall see.
-
After a mostly positive night of model runs…. GSP cuts totals in half?
-
I love this whole crew! There were definitely some hard feelings last year when it felt like hands were forced to make a foothills thread but I love our little microclimates. Heck, There are instances where the escarpment in my part of the world rake in BIG compared to the higher elevations. It’s just been so long for many of us. glad to be here with you all and here’s hoping that the storm delivers on Friday!
-
I feel like there’s a budding rivalry between the foothill and mountain crew. Heck, the foothill thread only came about because we were no longer welcome to complain in the mountain thread. Sorry not everyone gets northwest flow!
-
Right? From this frame I see a December 2009 incoming. Instead a dud. I expect just flurries at this point
-
Don’t worry. Our higher elevation brethren will pull us off the ledge with their optimism!
-
This is the sort of rug pull that hurts the heart. I think I’d just ask for the teasing to stop and transition to spring. I’m over tracking snow
-
See @Met1985 this is why us foothill folks can’t be optimists anymore. Our first real event is quickly turning to a dud
-
Tim Buckley and other Mets are mentioning the lack of precip. Gonna be an issue in NC…
-
Ugh. That leeside minimum and Asheville snow hole are looking worse and worse
-
I’m the same way @wncsnow. Skeptical until the very last snowflake. The Lee minimum showing up is concerning me
-
lol. Love seeing the Asheville snow hole show up on the maps now. Feels like a classic storm now. Foothills/Leeside are showing lower totals in general. Something to watch for our foothill folks
-
This is exactly why @wncsnowand I are never optimistic. Three years in a row where every event finds a new way to fail here.
-
Deflating model runs overnight and this morning. Sucks to see the LP in a perfect location but minimal precip…
-
32.9/29. Wet-bulb of 31.1
-
Sun is out in Old Fort too. Temps jumped up 4 degrees
-
Right on queue. As soon as I start to believe… models worsen.
-
If it amped at the right time, the foothills and mountains could end up getting a big dog. Weaker solution helps our neighbors south and east though…
-
I am stuck right at 29.9 according to my Tempest station and the clouds have locked in….
-
I’m oddly optimistic for the first time in a while. See what happens when you see flakes fly for a couple hours?
-
There’s nothing I love more than a surprise snow and you guys know this was definitely a surprise down here.
-
It is absolutely pouring snow in Old Fort. Most I’ve seen here since 2022
