Moonhowl Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Some sleet mixed in on the East side of Avl. Temp has dropped about a degree to 26 F in the past 30 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin NCwx Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I posted last night in the main thread about an area from higlands east to toxaway being the sweet spot and that seems to be happening. I fully expect to see 18" totals coming from that area. Precip has stopped here for now, hopefully when it picks back up we can switch back to all snow instead of this rain snow mix.

AirNelson39 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 NW mtns are getting screwed big time, heavy returns are not making it here and radar shows no sign of us getting heavy returns. Maybe 4" on the ground and glorified flurries for the last few hours. What a joke of a storm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncjoaquin Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 7.75 inches. That last band put down .75 inches in a little more than 30 minutes. Just 2.25 away from double digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavarreDon Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Boone folks, There is still more to come plus the flow event for you guys. On another topic nothing against the Andrews, Murphy area but I would never live there if I was a snow lover. 46° & rain at the Andrews airport. That's just brutal!!!

NWNC2015 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Could someone explain why the heavy returns are not making into the northern mtns?? This is unreal Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Time of the transfer. Big line slowing down and being aided with moisture off SC now....so when your rates do pick up they will be there for awhile. Also moisture is trying to develop behind the big line in GA may be skewing progression. I have high confidence of additional 6-12"+ for northern mountains at least.

Well I hope you're right, I'll eat a shoe if we get to 16" which is the lowest projected total of any of the forecasts. Currently at 4" and flurries Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 A couple of things for the NW Mnt crew. It's a southern storm so some places may do better than you. When moisture does make it to you & it will. Your ratio is going to be much higher than places to the south. I haven't looked at data but the Boone obs is 19°. A good guess is around 15-1. So less moisture = more snow in your area.After this round, I wouldn't be surprised to see at least 6" out of the flow event for you all. Relax guys your time is coming!
