Yeah the weather is pretty cool around the county. Seems like we are getting downsloped here in Canton but it's snowing in Bethel, Crabtree, Maggie. You have some elevation and you are good. You can literally see the snow line in town on the mountains.

Snowing again here in Canton but do not expect anything to really lay.

Yeah im thinking as has been mentioned this first batch is just nuanced. There is no forcing with this batch and it shows. When the come air starts to flood in here that's when things will become more organized.

Snow starting in Canton.

Get the sunscreen out.

Snow is moving in, in Haywood.

Whats cool is you can see the waves of moisture or lower level moisture all the way back into Illinois. That's what's going to help create a lot of lift for us in the mountains.

Yeah the NAM has been very inconsistent.

Schools dismissing at noon here. I think they are afraid of once it starts it's going to stick fast.

Yeah probably after lunch.

The clouds are milky. Looks and smells like snow.

Yeah a solid 2 to 4 still is what im thinking. The ground is in prime condition and boys is it going to get freaking cold starting tonight.

We ready for whatever gents?

Tossed!

Euro looks good for the mountains. A solid 2 to 4 inches is my thinking in the favored areas.

Yeah I agree especially the trajectory of this flow may see yall do well there in Maggie.

I thought the NAM looked good. Even upped some totals a bit around Asheville. Kind of more spread out with the accumulations. The lee side of the mountains I think are going to be toast. This is normal for this type event. Anyone outside the flow snow areas who gets Anything should consider yourself lucky.

Yeah it's been very consistent.

Euro still looks solid.

Well and our snow isn't really synoptic either... It's flow snow. It's funny reading the main thread lol.

Dang the GFS is dry...

I think Wards map is the best depiction of what we can all see barring some surprise on the upside of things.

Yeah the high res NAM and the regular name looks good even down into the Asheville area. And this snow will be very high ratio stuff. I'd say something like 13:1 ratio with the super cold air flooding in.

Euro with a much better expansion of snowfall across the mountains this run.
