Stovepipe Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I hit the Skyway around 2:30pm. By about Indian Boundary it was a winter wonderland. I found an overlook up a little ways from there that was perfect for the kids to play. I wanted to venture up some more but several people were saying it was rough near the state line, cars stuck, etc. It was fun to see this November 1st!

John1122 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 It's not did much more than fall off the trees today. Temp is steady at 32 with thick clouds and fog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ridge Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Had around 5" at noon today, which was the highest on the ground at any point. I awoke at 5:30 to around 1.5". Heavier snow began falling at 7:00 and did not let up until 11:00 as that nice southwesterly band paralleling the mountains dumped. NWFS has kept at least flurries falling much of the afternoon and evening with heavier bursts mixed in. I'm situated at roughly 1,925 feet. Walking around town today was an adventure. Numerous trees have fallen, and the persistent creaking and cracking noises suggested more were falling. Never lost power, fortunately, but it flickered much of the morning.

John1122 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Upper lows defy climo and everything else if you get caught underneath them. If it had been more West even the Central and Southern Valley would have cashed in like South Carolina. I hope this is the start of a good season. My last snow of this magnitude in the Halloween timeframe was 1993. I had flakes from Sandy but 1993 broke contain from the highest elevations like this one did. Winter of 1993-94 was very cold and pretty snowy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
