jacobr57 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Anyone want to take a look at this RAP map for me? It looks like the mountains are in the .10-.25 inches range, but the 'x' says .28 inches. Either way, it's looking better and better. Atlanta gets nailed.

triadwx Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yeah, I'm really liking tracker's idea of 2"-4" with locally heavier amounts of course. Definitely going to be an interesting day across the high country tomorrow. Gonna be a lot of surprises in store for most I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people I have been talking to this evening don't even know it is going to snow because the local weather here has not been on the ball even if GSP has not put anything out yet.

I was about to throw in the towel earlier, but the models have been really aggressive with the overrunning recently. It will be interesting to see how GSP responds.

Thank you sir for the updates. As living in Haywood I am really enjoying the trends here. We do really well with southern systems and this would be. Great treat for most of WNC.

NavarreDon Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Morning fellas!, nice to wake up & see Asheville in its typical non-advised hole. Here is hoping things go better than forecasted. Time to watch the radar & peek your head out the window. Good luck all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 I can confirm that what is on the radar is hitting the ground here in Haywood county. It is snowing moderate to heavy snow. Roads are covered along with everything else. Temp in town here is 16 degrees and no advisory for us either Don. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yep, I think Buncombe and the remaining counties will be put under an advisory quite soon based off radar trends. Looking good for you guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowing on the mtn this morning as well. Since snow has actually materialized..bodes well for the rest of the day. The wind field today suggests some enhancement possible in the Balsams mtns although would like to see stronger winds lower down than what will actually develop. I think 2" is a lock..with an outside shot at 4". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frick..a similar setup with rain absolutely unloads on the mtn top compared to other areas. (The mtn top has been the 1st or 2nd wettest location in NC each month since November...2nd wettest for the month of January..with a mtn top location in Southern Haywood the wettest.)

Kind of disappointing that they can more then handle the clippers but get blindsided by what could be a good storm. I guess it was somewhat of a surprise, ha maybe they should read our thread more.
