Hvward Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Nice pic Blue. Euro ensemble has 27/50 members with accumulating snowfall for KAVL on the night of the 7th. Looks like a decent shot at some NWFS. Winter is here my mountain peeps! GFS showing a similar look but is more progressive and brings it on the 6th.

MikeGold Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 LeConte ended up with 22" inches and waist deep drifts...might have been the worst storm for them since Sandy...wow! Orographics combined with the ULL was quite the one...two punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orographics combined with the ULL was quite the one...two punch. Yep they had quite the storm up there. Shoot we ended up with right at 8.7 inches of snowfall with a low of 25 degrees this morning. Just beautiful with the snow everywhere. I forget it is November 2nd. Pics will be missing but I'll still throw in my 2 cents worth.......even if it's only worth .5! I see you lurking Jason.....how did you do? We will be looking forward to your expertise Don. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 Looking down the road things continue to look active with the pattern amplifying again toward the end of this week with another dip in the jet over the east. Looks like we could even be talking about some more snow coming for Friday possibly. Looking further down the road than that towards the middle to end of November the pattern seem to really get active with the PNA going positive and the AO possibly going negative and quite negative at that. Really with the way things are panning out we could have a very impressive winter on our hands for the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Met, I mentioned this look on the previous page (must of got lost in discussion) but nonetheless impressive. Euro ensemble has 27/50 members at KAVL with accumulation on the night of the 7th. At the least this looks to be a decent NWF event. Hopefully this is a re-occurring theme throughout winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a decent shot at some NWFS. Winter is here my mountain peeps! GFS showing a similar look but is more progressive and brings it on the 6th. GFS also showing 1-2" of rain on Thursday now, followed by a brief window of a few snow showers very early Friday morning. Shouldn't amount to much...but yes...winter has arrived! Buckle up. It's going to be a brutal winter around WNC I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchighcountrywx Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Morning captures courtesy of Kenny at Appnet Resortcams.com Nice to see the peaks covered by snow on November 2 Grandfather Mountain viewed from Echota Beech Mountain I love winter in the NC Mountains. Few things can come close to the beauty of our snow covered countryside and peaks in the winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
