Saw his Blizzard warning prediction. Also benchmark in Boone per rays is 30 (1993). I was in the "whee" for that one and NWs had officially a Blizzard warning out. Something that saturday afternoon seeing 40mph+ wind while heavy snow falling. Also think ray said snowiest December on record for Boone was like 27 inches (2010). So if Boone had what 3 earlier this week and nets about 16-20 this weekend. Look out another record is in reach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 BTW you all need to keep a close eye on late next week. Strong cut off low in the TN valley with long periods of upslope snow possible. In fact some places could get 6-12 easy in favored spots 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonhowl Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 The one nagging doubt I have is the gulf hasn't had much time for a winter cool down; I just can't help but think there is a warm nose sneaking up behind me despite the CAD in front of me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do need to watch this. But seems that given the moisture transport mechanism off of the Gulf and Atlantic, perhaps this won't be too big an issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the NWS forecast page, look near the top and click on the headline major winter storm expected. Then on that next page click the top left blue tab next to the red hazard tab. It's near the middle of the next page under the paragraph in bold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gulf temperatures have zero impact on our storm. If anything, warmer temperatures support more evaporation and thus more added water vapor / moisture availability. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapelhillwx Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Still undecided on where to go. I think Fletcher/Hendersonville is a safe bet for at least 10" but GSP's probability maps favor places like Brevard or Morganton. My gut tells me Brevard could end up too far west and lose CAD. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? I can assure you that Brevard and Hendersonville rarely end up far off from one another with these setups. Orographic Lifting will do work on both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
