Met1985 Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think once this batch from TN comes in I think we will be getting hammered from there on out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Things have slowed quite a bit in Weaverville. Light snow now with hardly any wind. Best guess is right at 2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonhowl Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I would say about 1/2 to 1" in E. Asheville; a few flurries still flying around. I will get a better look at depth when I take out the trash. I would think Met1985 should cash in pretty well. Enjoy the snow! The ASU webcam looks a bit wintery: http://cams.appstate.edu/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirNelson39 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just got back in from scraping and salting all the entrances and sidewalks at Sanford Hall on the campus of ASU, boy were there some big drifts. I'd say 2-3" has fallen but it's hard to tell given the ripping winds. It's coming down heavy now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotoWeatherman Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Congrats everyone in AVL and Franklin and Met. Got steady light snow and a dusting here in Dahlonega. If I've got flakes flying IMBY then that means the mtns of WNC are doing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 5" at the highest peak in GA. How much have you received? I've had a dusting at best. That is so odd it makes me think it's an error. Here is their forecast for MBY... Today A chance of rain and snow showers, mainly before noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 42. Northwest wind around 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. Total daytime snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just posted this in the main storm thread......I saw it, looked at the radar, then the visible satellite image and scratched my head. I do have to admit however, I like how FFC seems to be much more aggressive this year and "exciting" for lack of better words. Makes following storms more fun, but not sure about this one.

I just spoke with FFC because I thought it might have been a mistake but it was not. The lady was real nice and explained they had reports of 3" amounts in the higher elevations. So it's really just for the highest elevations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
