    Checking Spaceweather after the big solar flare today and they had posted about the SSW. Hopefully this will lead to good things for us soon.

    0z GFS is a step in the right direction for Wednesday night. I could see this sneak into a light event if things trend a little stronger with the low.

    This mornings dusting melted and has been replaced by another. So two traces makes a quarter inch, right? Lol
  4. Tyler Penland
    Woke up to a dusting here. Nice surprise.
  5. Tyler Penland
    That's not far off from a nice hit. Temps aren't great.
  6. Tyler Penland
    It didn't do so hot last time either, though, so I'd hedge my bets for right now. None of the globals did once we got close.

    Up to 5.55" and still coming down. Watauga is the highest I've seen it in a long time and Linville hit 6ft today. Impressive.

    Already an inch and a half of rain with plenty more to go the next couple days. This should put an end to the local drought.

    GFS and Euro both have an extended NWF event mid/late next week. Been fairly consistent on it as well.

    Yeah I always struggle when it's below freezing. I store extras in an inside pocket on my coat to keep them warm. Once they get cold and thaw out they're back to normal again so I just switch them out as they each get too cold. It was in the upper-10s up there most of the day yesterday so they really didn't appreciate the temps lol

    Here's some photos from Grayson Highlands today. Summiting Wilburn Ridge in the snow is definitely sketchy. Made it all the way to Mt Rogers for our first proper snow summit of it, cold but fun trip.

    Had a little wind/compaction overnight and measured 2" on the board this morning. Headed up to Grayson Highlands to see how it went up there.

    Only took 45min to tack on another inch. 2.5 total but it has let up for now. Big sigh of relief we have not repeated last winter. This beats the season total of '22-' 23.
  14. Tyler Penland
    Under one of those streamers right now. Up to 1.5". Largest snow since the cold snap last Christmas.

    Roads around Watauga are a mess. From FB posts pretty much every road into Boone has stuck cars and wrecked. Dumping here again. We may break last years season total tonight.

    Just drove from Blowing Rock to the house and absolutely dumping. Roads going downhill fast and almost white out at times with the wind.

    Nice steady light snow in Blowing Rock. Absolutely gorgeous.
  18. Tyler Penland
    Nice banding starting to work into the northern counties. Bring it on.

    Nice flurry/flizzard action here in Blowing Rock this morning. Had to put some lead in my shoes or my skinny butt would have been in Charlotte via the surface jet stream this morning.
  20. Tyler Penland
    We managed 0.82" so far. Nowhere near the washout but still not terrible.
  21. Tyler Penland
    NAM has been trending towards the GFS and now Euro. Well it was fun while it lasted. Here's hoping the higher elevations still do well and I can get into some fun stuff Tuesday morning.
  22. Tyler Penland
    Even the HRRR has more than that. Actually the HRRR verbatim might have some thunder in convective bands late Monday. I really wonder what it is (or isn't) seeing.
  23. Tyler Penland
    Very dry layer at the surface. I've seen it sleet up around 51/52 degrees before, always weird.
  24. Tyler Penland
    The 3km actually closes the trough off over the lakes. Impressive.
  25. Tyler Penland
    A little OT but they closed it to sledding because of some stuff that happened last year. People (read: idiots) parking in the road and what not. We did OK in that event but definitely less than expected.
