Shack Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Had business in Highlands on Tuesday but decided to come on up from Macon this evening and make it business and pleasure. Heavy drizzle in Dillard as I made the turn up Hwy 246 about 45 minutes ago, but when I got the NC state line it changed over. I had a song, "White as Snow", by U2, on as I hit the line. Great timing. 31 degrees and light snow now. Quite a line of precip lined up across Tennessee headed our way. Here's to hoping everyone gets what they hoped for !

I'm about 30 mins to your east in sapphire. Patiently awaiting the snow. Radar doesn't look too impressive but we'll see.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franklin NCwx Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 The 4k Oz nam drops .75 of qpf thru macon, jackson, and transylvania counties. The radar looks healthy back into Tennessee. I think that's the stuff that does the dirty work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Looks to me like that line of convection that's running through mid AL/GA is doing robjob on the moisture transport. Radar should have filled in more in southern TN by now. It might later on though. Something's just not right. But you guys know much more about it than I do so take this with a big grain of salt.

MikeGold Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 As expected, looks like the Balsams did get their couple of inches per webcam: http://brpwebcams.org/cam/5/1. Upstream radar has a Southward shift to returns so should start to lighten up for the rest of the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacoma Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 looking at the radar it doesn't seem as there is enough moisture to come into the Asheville area, unless it starts coming from sw to ne, looks like not much of a winter storm for here. instead of 2-4 it will be more 1/2 inch if we're lucky, unless something happens in the next few hours that I don't see.

Met1985 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Moderate to heavy snow. We are approaching very close to 3 inches and this stuff is wet. Just absolutely beautiful sticking to everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongwxnc Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Moderate to heavy snow. We are approaching very close to 3 inches and this stuff is wet. Just absolutely beautiful sticking to everything. Wet it is! Sitting on a solid 1/2". puddles in the driveway so it must have rained a good bit before changing to snow last night.

NavarreDon Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 WNC scores on TWC this am with Reynolds Wolf reporting live from Asheville. Just got a text from my brother and he says 4-5" of wet snow outside of Glenville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
