BREMCO at almost 10k outages. Power has flickered here a few times. Nearly up to freezing although I suspect Deep Gap down towards Triplet will be below for a while longer. Remeasured and have a solid half inch here in Blowing Rock now. Rates have picked up enough to minimize additional accums I think. -

Had to use one of the stores fabric rulers cause I forgot mine at home but almost a half inch here in Blowing Rock. -

Between 0.3 and 0.4" here. Most I've seen in a long time. Enough to drop some big limbs and lay the rhodo bushes down. -

About 2/10" of ice on the trees out front. Just dipped back to 29.8 after sitting at 30.1 for a while. Really surprised we don't have more. Air temp sat below 30 most of the day with only light rain for the most part. Odd. -

Bumped up to 28 here in Blowing Rock. Ice now noticeable on the trees, especially higher up. -

27 with light to moderate ZR in Blowing Rock. Roads and sidewalks are fine somehow, at least so far. -

12z NAM much colder at the surface, HRRR is a little warmer than the NAM but still looks like a significant event along the escarpment. -

HRRR actually starts Watauga and ashe off as snow tomorrow morning. Interesting trends this morning. Definitely concerned for the escarpment. -

0z 3KM NAM with a widespread event. Ashe County looks to be in a particularly bad spot this go around. -

Northern mountains could have a bit of a mess if the GFS is right. Actually switches part of the area over to snow briefly Wednesday morning. Temperatures are borderline the whole time, though. -

Yeah this is wild. Textbook supercell in east Tennessee in early February. Thankfully doesn't appear to have touched down from what I have seen, but the storm up towards Morristown had a solid CC ball at one point. -

Really liking the 7-10 day plus look. 12z GFS has a multi day storm. Wouldn't be surprised to see the can kicked down the road a few days but I think we're headed in a good direction. At any rate, doesn't look like suppression will be a problem. -

Got it back. It had froze at the well but I got that took care of right off. Froze at the cutoff to the house (buried but one accessible spot) but I thawed that with a hair dryer. Ran heat tape down the upper end and stuck a heater on the lower end under the house and it finally turned loose. -

I drained everything that was still liquid from my filter to the house but below the filter to the well is about 40ft that is half above ground and half below. No clue where it's froze at. Never had it frozen this long before. -

You get your water unfrozen? We're still not there yet. -

Made it to 0.9 Not gonna lie this upcoming slightly warmer period is kinda nice. I could use a couple days above freezing. -

Yeah NOLA has me beat on a single storm going all the way back to 2018. Wild. Good news I don't think this winter is anywhere near done yet. -

Absolutely crazy to see what's going on on the gulf coast. We hit 2.5 this morning for the coldest of the season so far. Tried to hike over in east TN today and the Gentry Creek Falls area is absolutely devastated. Pic below is where I turned around but the rest of the trail was about the same. -

Just got home from GA. Looks like we hit 5 this morning. Currently 2.5" of powder so I'm guessing it was closer to 3 before compaction this morning. Brings me to 16.8" for the season with a handful of traces to boot.
