  1. 38.1/19.6 here for a wet bulb of 30. Still an occasional east breeze here.
  2. Very breezy here tonight. 20MPH gusts out if the east.
  3. Yeah I love it up there. Going in the snow was on my bucket list for a long time. Felt like being on another planet. We were the only people who made it more than a hundred yards yesterday, probably due to the winds through Massie. My buddy and I legit had to grab each other to stay upright on multiple occasions and he kept me from falling off a rock at one point. Made it to Rhododendron Gap before turning around. The constant guessing game of "is this snow 4" or 3ft deep" was hard on the knees, though. Here's a couple more photos.
  4. Went up to Greyson Highlands today and it was absolutely insane. No clue how much snow they got but it varied from 4-6" to drifts up to my waist (2-3ft+). Temp barely broke 20 and winds were HOWLING. Gusting easily to 40MPH and probably 50+ in the gaps. Difficult hiking conditions, to say the least. Absolutely beautiful though. The wild ponies didn't seem to mind. I'll upload a few more photos when I can get them down to the allowed size without blurring them so much.
  5. Headed to Greyson Highlands tomorrow. Never been up there in the snow so it should be a fun trip. Not sure which way we're going in but probably from Elk Gardens.
  6. Just seen Leconte got 16". Still snowing they may break 20.
  7. 24.4 already and can hear the wind sounding like a fighter jet above us.
  8. Slowly picking up here in Boone. Wind really starting to crank.
  9. Starting to spit down here in Foscoe. Currently 30.6/27.4. Light breeze kicking in.
  10. Temp jumped to 31.1. Freezing rain at the moment. Temp and ptype bounce around a lot based on rates.
  11. 28 with a 3.5" inches of junk and a mixed bag falling right now.
  12. Down to 25 after the brief run up to 30. Heard the wind howling over the ridge earlier but dead calm now.
  13. Temp has gone up a couple degrees since the snow stopped. Currently 30 flat.
  14. Yeah my subaru just quit on me (engine misfire issue, no clue what the problem is) so I'm gonna be in my wife's two wheel drive for this event. Came in from Boone to foscoe and they were getting rough during the downpour. Yay.
  15. Sunday looks like an absolute mess on the 3km.
  16. Sunday looks like a mess on the escarpment on the 12km NAM. Lots of ice.
  17. 36 and still just rain. Over a quarter inch in just these couple hours though. Heard 2 rumbles of thunder. Oh so close.
  18. Down to 39 and falling. Change should be soon. THUNDER AS I WAS TYPING THIS. Definitely TSN on Beech.
  19. Topped out at 61. Fell pretty quick down to 51 now with the wind kicking up. Forecast low of 21. Should be fun.
  20. Well, euro stuck to its guns. Gfs has been improving and strengthening the CAD. Here's hoping!
  21. Northern mountains get a big burst on the HRRR tomorrow. Christmas part 2 with rain changing to a crazy period of heavy snow? Yes please.
  22. Interested to see how the system next Wed/Thu plays out. Both GFS and Euro have a threat for ZR/SN for primarily the northern mountains.
