AirNelson39 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 "A dusting mainly in the higher elevations" my butt. It's dumping in Boone, side roads are becoming snow covered again as well as partial covering on main roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ridge Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 We're seeing similar conditions across the border in Unicoi County, TN. Light to moderate snow has been falling on and off since 8:00 am, with nearly an inch accumulating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxBlue Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I looked outside at 7 am and it appears AVL peaked with an inch of snow. It was also flurrying when I was walking to a class later this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacoma Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Got snow covered roads and ground here in West Asheville. Some areas west of here like Candler/Canton hardly saw any snow, amazing. Very slick leaving the house this morning going to start the school bus. (Two hour delay.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PisgahNCWeather Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Wow really? They even got a little dusting at the airport close to where I am working.. Crazy! Nothing. It was clear here that is why it dropped so low. Dropped my son off at Enka Middle and they had snow on the ground. Usually we get something. First time in a while a shutout.

Enka District this morning was almost closed for the fact around where I live and around the Home Depot area we couldn't run two buses at all this morning it was so bad, snow covered and icy. Erwin district did close and we almost closed with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live 6 miles down Pisgah Hwy and the mountains just to our west stopped any activity for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeGold Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Nice! The coolest thing about that video is the house at Beech seen on the video cover on the left at the top is the very house I almost bought recently. As you can tell from the video, one of the reasons I didn't get it is that is inaccessible in the Winter time except by walking in as the man made snow blows in and buries the access road. (Also the constant noise generated from nearby chair lift equipment was uncomfortable loud.) The view from this particular home was just as stunning as you can see from the drone footage. (Note also that the Realtor indicated that during a storm a number of years ago-almost every single window in the place was blown out.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hvward Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Nice drone video's AirNelson! Was thinking of getting a phantom with the camera attached but I am worried that the FAA might drop the hammer and make them difficult to fly in the areas I would want to. Especially around the city. Not that I blame them, but I would hate to not be able to use it for the things I want considering the cost. Thanks for putting this together and keep up the awesome work!!

Met1985 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Not sure about any snow in the coming week. Still a lot to hammer out in the pattern. I do think we see a cool down as we head for Thanksgiving but the models are just all over the place right know in the Mid to long range. To much going on for them to get a good handle on things right know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To much going on for them to get a good handle on things right know. Yeah still a ton of uncertainty in the long range but the Euro Ensemble has 34/50(KAVL) 45/50(Boone) with some type of accumulation in the long range so something to keep an eye on.

WxBlue Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 00z Euro clown map is a decent event for WNC for Wednesday between 3" to 6" (including Asheville and Boone).

The Euro has changed a bit and the GFS has changed a lot from yesterday evenings runs. Time to just set back and watch what happens. My bet is the Euro is catching on to the pattern better than the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timing could be a bit better but the details still need to be hammered out this weekend. A couple ensemble members have a pretty big snow. GFS is too warm and east but at this time, I would much rather have the Euro on our side compared to the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
