I almost bought a house on Balsam at 5600 feet. Beautiful view, pretty nice house but nowhere for the kids to play... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a great winter view of the mountain across 74 from us (sunrise this morning was amazing to wake up to - lots of windows on the main upper level) but otherwise we are in the trees tucked in a little cove on the side of the mountain. Can’t wait to check out the views on the parkway above the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I had a gust at 64 at 9:46. That's high for my location. But more impressive today has been the sustained winds in the upper forties for the past 12 hours. You can dodge a gusty wind but when it blows this hard you pretty much have to stay out of it. I hate the wind. It's eerie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 If you believe it the euro is showing a return to winter in about a week. To a lesser extent the GFS is also advertising this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was by the lake this morning and where the Tuck and little Tennessee come into the lake the water level is really high for February. Usually, it's still flowing at this time of year!.

Hvward Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I am becoming increasingly interested in the possibility for snow showers on Tuesday around WNC. Should get some agreement among models this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

March always brings in second winter and it seems to be more often lately after February spring softens us up; the question is, will April be a winter or spring month.
