They say it is a result of the 2008 recession when fewer trees were planted by tree farmers. Trees planted around then are the ones being harvested this year. Some cut your own farms are reportedly not even opening this year. Have any of you mountain folk heard anything about this? Expand Still plenty of trees around here. Jackson county (the next county over) is a huge producer. We went and cut ours down yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes the NAM did over do the ice accum, however, there appears to be slightly more cold air to work with for a few hours. I’m in Florida and it’s supposed to be close to 75 today I’m just worried about my flight back into Asheville tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvegas-wx Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I'm up here for the weekend with you mountain peeps staying in Newland at a rental. Just drove through Banner Elk and the mountains all around Grandfather are covered in frozen fog. Very pretty day, but a precursor of things to come tonight. Definitely looking for a decent 6-8 hour event overnight. Leftover food, warm fire and a comfy recliner is all I need to make this memorable. 28° and heavy fog here on 221 now.

FlatLander48 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Here is the scene outside of my backdoor at the cottages. Close to an inch of windblown snow. Couple of sleet pellets falling as I took this. Think this classifies as the heaviest snow here so far lol. .

Boonelight Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Just came back from Food Lion on 421 outside of Boone. Starting to get freezing rain here.
