FoothillsNC Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 today's 12z Euro has a good look to it. Split flow with the California/Great Basin storm probably taking the low road, with surface high pressure all over Canada pressing down into the US, with the enormous blocking over southern Greenland. Still too far out but just something to watch. The system coming through day 8 or 9 may have some wintry precip across the Apps into Midatlantic as well. If the 5H look on it could verify, it would just be a matter of time before we have something good to track. Big "if" obviously at 10 days.

Itunis Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 60 here on the beach, we were around 70 at sunrise. This far south it's impressive to see temps falling through the day. I'm liking the suppressed look on the 12Z GFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Went over 1/2 an inch a few hours ago. Mostly just scattered nothing now. 54 at 3:45. It was a nice gentle, steady rain this morning. I put out 75 lbs of winter rye to help with run off problems and this was just the right kind of rain for it. By next week that grass should be ready to fight off 2+ inches, if it comes.

dsaur Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 whats that? It's where all that water that used to fall in the mtns. washed down into Shelby It seems around here when I get an inch or two it all falls at once and takes the front of the property and sends it towards the back. Robert...imagine a wind blowing all the dust from the front of your land down to the back of your land, lol.

EmersonGA Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 It looks like winter finally. The front took what leaves were left last night. The only leaves left are water oaks. We picked up around .4" or so it appears. Currently 44 degrees. My kind of weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Nice run of the cmc last night. Showing the most weenie solution of course. Gfs trended south with the storm next weekend too. Glad to see the winter storm in the 12/5 - 12/8 range is still on the table. Huffman's blog today said it is still a possibility, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCSNOW Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Old man winter has arrived in NC High Country. 23 degrees with stiff winds gusting into the 50mph range. A few light snow showers and ski slopes are blowing snow! We left Sparta around 4:00 and it was 39 with howling winds. You could really tell the cold air was drilling in. Got back to Randolph County and it was 55 and calm as could be. I'm sure the CAA will be here soon and probably is already spilling through the foothills. The ground was bone dry up in Alleghaney county. I've had over 3/10's here before leaving this morning and not sure what else fell today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 Avery ridgelines about to drop into the teens: http://www.weatherli.../user/sugartop/ Avery is the windiest, coldest county in NC. Christmas Tree country too. On my trips to ASU I'd stop in Newland just because I like the town so much. As much as I like the active weather there, it's just too harsh for me in the Winter with all those cloudy, cold days and never ending wind. Great place to chase a snowstorm.

Local Yokel Wx Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Got down to 27 this morning. Riding in last night from CLT to the Whee and the temp dropped 21 degrees. 59 when I left CLT around 5:15pm and 38 when I got home around 8:15pm. I know the sun setting helped but man I loved watching the thermometer drop while driving; mainly due to the front passing through. Looking forward to seeing some high elevation snow this week!
