CAD Addict Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 38 degrees with intermittent sunshine currently. The wind continues to howl. On a side note, here's a temperature graph for Boone yesterday. Any guesses of what time the front came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I love the photos! I went to your Facebook page also. I was just up at the Blue Ridge Parkway and Richland Balsam this weekend. It was in the low 50's and windy, while the base of the parkway was near 70. It's literally a different climate up there and I would have loved to of seen fresh snow!

DaculaWeather Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 45.9 here and just barely creeping up at .7 degrees per hour. Not going to get too warm with all of this cloud cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLweather Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Well again temps look to be under most guidance today again. NWS was calling for 61 but looks like 58 will be the max. Partly sunny and 57 currently. Calling for a low of 41 even with light mixing could see the upper 30s possible. I know NWS calling for 37 here saturday night, could be lower by a couple degrees if we get good radiational cooling. Maybe even a frosty morning for portions of the piedmont sunday. Just out of curiosity.... is it just south va/ north nc area? But the stink bugs have been horrible this year. They are every where trying to find shelter for this coming winter. You walk outside and bombarded by them. I dont know how they're getting in the house, but Ive been killing them left and right. Normally they are not this bad around fall but I not sure what is up with this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonGA Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Didn't see it mentioned above but Mt. Leconte picked up 1" last night according the the daily report. They reported 22 degrees as the low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoWeatherman Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 A chilly 45.9 here in Dahlonega. High so far has only been 46.3. brrrrrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastonwxman Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Up to 59 for a high (might touch 60) with a steady breeze. Doesn't appear to be as windy as was forecasted for the afternoon as I've only seen it gust up to 17mph instead of the predicted >30mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Currently 58 or so here. Not too windy as others have noted. Leaves are really beginning to change in a hurry now. Yesterday's windy wx in the afternoon knocked quite a few down. The best part so far has been watching the crab grass die off. Now just to keep it from coming back in the spring!

High so far has only been 46.3. brrrrrrr brrr is right lol. current temp 45.1, the high was 45.9 (yeah i know splitting hairs with tenths of a degree ) normally i like clouds and wind, but i am ready for them both to go away so we can get our first frost of the season tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234snow Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Currently it is 43 degrees while other surrounding areas are in the lower 40's/upper 30's. It never made it up to the forecasted high of 49 and the sun never came out which is why. It's been drizzling for most of the day and the wind has gusted pretty solid all day. Edit: Some of the rain might of been mixed with some sleet/snow but it was tough to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LithiaWx Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Taken at Richland Balsam (6053') ff Pkwy. 3" with rime ice How were the roads on the way up? The parkway is not exactly the safest place to have a problem with traction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally they are not this bad around fall but I not sure what is up with this year. same here on the temps. I've noticed in cold advection episodes, they're going too high. A high of 59 today, and forecast was low 60s. I can't recall seeing a forecast of erring on the cold side in the last 2 or 3 years, except maybe in a couple brutal heat waves, which is strange. The stink bugs are more noticeable this year too. Worst of all are the fireants and granddaddy longleg spiders. Both are the worst I've ever noticed here. Currently 58 or so here. Not too windy as others have noted. Leaves are really beginning to change in a hurry now. Yesterday's windy wx in the afternoon knocked quite a few down. The best part so far has been watching the crab grass die off. Now just to keep it from coming back in the spring! good luck with that. Also, the winds here weren't too bad until just a couple hours ago..they were late to get started but had a few gusts up to 25 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I dont ever remember stink bugs as bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
