Looks like we have plenty of moisture upstream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacoma Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 well believe it or not here in Asheville we got about an inch and a half, roads are covered, I guess the last hurrah of the season, not that it won't snow anymore, I've seen even in Asheville big snows the first week of April but this is probably it, so I'm very pleased to see this since it might be it until next winter, come on spring now.

calculus1 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I have more snow on the ground with this NWFS event than I got out of the 4+ hours of ULL snow on Monday morning. I don't think it snowed more than an hour this morning, but it all stuck on contact. It's beautiful around here in Hickory right now. Congrats to all the mountain folks who are really cashing in with this vigorous event! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griteater Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 A quality AFD update from GSP...got a light dusting here with the snow showers... As of 755 am: (Dreaming of May)...Northwest flow snow showers have broken their mountain containment with extreme prejudice, with one small area taking direct aim on the better part of the Charlotte metro area. Most locations are unlikely to see the recommended one inch of accum for an advisory, but it`s rush hour, it`s below freezing, and at the very least, bridges and overpasses are likely to become messy. Therefore, an advisory has been issued to encompass much of the metro. Otherwise, NWS GSP will take this as a rebuilding season for its winter weather program and look forward to a bounce back in 2018-19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this is just a brief break, but we will see. *****Edit: it was brief.*****Yep, sun came out for about 5 minutes and it’s back to very heavy snow! Best NWFS I’ve seen in a while in Boone for sure. Measured about 4.5” before this last squal. Wouldn’t be surprised to get at least another inch maybe even more with how it’s snowing now. .

AirNelson39 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 We’ve come close to picking up more snow this week than we have all winter combined here in Boone. Hate it that Beech Mtn had to close early this season as this week would have been the best conditions of the season there. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
