Hvward Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 12z GFS incoming with a big hit for the mountains. Breaks the precip for maybe 12 hrs and then dumps big time after hr 60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxBlue Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Wow, this is an over performance here in Asheville. Big flakes are falling, although the ground is still too warm. Maybe this will lead to more snow sticking to the ground later in the event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobr57 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Wow, this is an over performance here in Asheville. Big flakes are falling, although the ground is still too warm. Maybe this will lead to more snow sticking to the ground later in the event? It's really coming down here. If it keeps it up much longer it will start accumulating pretty quickly, I would imagine.

MikeGold Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 NWS now says snow rest of the day. Melting layer at about 3000 feet which is causing some bright banding on radar over the Piedmont it appears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeGold Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 http://brpwebcams.org/cam/5/1 Balsam Gap is looking rather slick. If you loop the image-you can see that conditions have gone down hill during the last hour. In the woods in the background is Rosemont Road-beginning of access road to the mtn top.
