WeatherHawk Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 A dusting here on Rittle Knob, cold and very windy. Drove daughter to school (2hr. delay here in Watauga today) lots of rocks in the road in several places where water had crossed 194. On a different note...my daughter had that tornado go by her work in GBO yesterday. Prayers and thoughts with those folks affected by yesterday's storms. Stay warm folks, forecasted here for low of 23 tonight. It's gonna hit all the blooms and buds again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 The last squall that came through a few minutes ago it was blizzard conditions. Wind gust hit 57 during the middle of it. I have over 3 here. Wind chill hanging around 0. More than I expected from this storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckethead Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I have 3.75" but there was quite a bit of sleet that compacted it this afternoon. Coming through McKinney Gap tonight was probably the most treacherous it's been all winter, and NCDOT is nowhere to be found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I love the DOT guys. They keep this county functioning in winter. But after March, they're like deal with it.

Eric Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I remember Boone receiving around a half a foot of snow in mid-April 1983 while I was attending ASU. Hard to believe that was 35 years ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reached 32 F by about 7 PM IMBY; the spring sprouts have taken a major hit. Also, I saw the story last evening on WLOS about you Hunter; great to see!

SnoJoe Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Unless there is some major redevelopment overnight, the forecast of 2 to 3 inches of rain for me ain't gonna happen. I've only had .34 so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Ridge_Escarpment Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 2.57 so far here along the immediate foothills. If HRRR is right, we have 2-4 more inches. A little soggy in the blue ridge tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can sum it up in three words.... We HATE summer. There are a few exceptions. Homegrown tomatoes, fishing, and watching the grand kids catching fireflies. Oh yeah almost forgot, watching distant lightning on a summer night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
