1234snow Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Line of intense showers came thru here about a hour ago. I didn't think there would be much moisture to work with today but that line packed a punch, lots of wind and rain. Temp is 46. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bevo Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 No way GSP's reading is right for my area right now. It is not 66 degrees outside. Never touched it in Lyman today. Try 61 degrees as the high (which is a large delta in degrees). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gastonwxman Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Reached 64 for a high, though it certainly does not feel like it with the winds kicking up to around 30mph every so often it seems. Hope you got out there today to at least enjoy the warmth with what's left before the brutal cold settles in. To think right now I'm wearing a t-shirt...

NavarreDon Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 NNW wind is really gusty right now in Weaverville. Temp is falling at a rate of 2° every 10 minutes! What a wild day weather wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 NNW wind is really gusty right now in Weaverville. Temp is falling at a rate of 2° every 10 minutes! What a wild day weather wise. all the models have strong cold advection beginning before dawn in the western Carolinas, and I doubt AVL goes up to freezing tomorrow, it will be close but probably no cigar with that very strong cold advection beginning so early. If so that means Asheville could be below freezing from tonight from midnight until around Wednesday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert, As usual you nailed this several days ago when GSP was being really conserv. with temps. They now have my forecast high tomm. @ 30° Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion_NC_WX Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Robert, As usual you nailed this several days ago when GSP was being really conserv. with temps. They now have my forecast high tomm. @ 30° I would guess Asheville will record its high temp later on tonight after midnight. GSP has also gradually lowered the high's for here tomorrow...now upper 30's. GSP noted that downslope will overcome the CAA tomorrow...if that part turns out to be a swing-and-miss...then watch out. Kudos to Robert for nailing this a few days in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Robert, As usual you nailed this several days ago when GSP was being really conserv. with temps. They now have my forecast high tomm. @ 30° I can't say that yet it's not happened yet. They dropped your temps tomorrow (still have you upper 20's Tues) , but are sticking with upper 30's here on Tuesday. TUESDAY SUNNY. HIGHS IN THE UPPER 30S. The 850's are about the coldest here in several years, a little colder than early 2010 when we had a high of 30 and 32 in that 2 day cold wave. I know this time there's no snow on the ground upstream so that might make a difference, but at the same time the cold advection hits so quickly that there's hardly any time for moderation. I'm going for low 30's here to CLT on Tuesday, and for Asheville 31 Mon and 23 Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyefan1 Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 After reaching a high of 73 today I'm currently at 61. It will be nice not to see anything close to 70 for the next few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainMarvel Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Cold hasn't arrived here yet. Still at 52, and dropping slowly. It was 59 here today, with enough rain around 3 o'clock to wet everything. Wind kicked up for awhile, but has died down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
