The Balsam Gap webcam looks great! There is more snow there now than here in Ann Arbor! Expand Nice Mike! It is beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently at 2 inches and it's coming down. Doesn't look like much behind this though. Might have a lull for awhile before flow kicks in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can tell by the band forming behind this one has a more NW to SE component to it. My winds are starting to switch more from the NW as well. That has caused my temp to drop 2 degrees in the past 40 minutes. With this last band, it was almost whiteout conditions for about 25 minutes. By far the heaviest of the day. It had to put down close to an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yeah I was out towards the end of long shoals Rd and the sun was actually out. Tonight when I drove towards Haywood from long shoals probably just about 3 miles it was snowing hard right there at Bevard rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Nice surprise when we got home! About 1.5 to 2 inches of heavy wet snow and absolutely ripping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The ride home from Biltmore Park was interesting. When we left Biltmore it was not snowing. We drove about 3 to 5 miles and hit heavy snow near the Biltmore square mall. From there the road was wet through malfunction junction until the bottom of buzzards roost. Interesting that going up buzzards roosts was dry and no snow. When we got over the mountain into Canton there was snow on the ground but no snow falling. We stopped in Canton for 10 minutes. Came out from Ingles and it was pouring the snow. I-40 to the fines Creek exit was literally a whiteout the whole time. Heavy snow and blowing also. Got home and still pounding. Will try to post pics in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franklin NCwx Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Got about a 1/2 inch. It came down heavy for about 20 min and that did the trick to cover the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting crushed at the moment. You can tell the ratios are going up too. Flakes are a little smaller but so thick you can't see 20 feet beyond the spots. Just let my dog out. He went straight to pee and back and was plastered! Edit: BTW just measured over 3 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlatLander48 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I'm not sure what it is, but Ashe just can't get the banding like most of you guys have gotten, and I think it's a common occurrence. not that I can complain I do have snow on the ground for only the third time this season. (Well, 3 times worth mentioning) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
