Met1985 Posted March 29, 2021 Author Share Posted March 29, 2021 Both the GFS and euro are honing in on the upslope snow coming in Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Im calling for 2 to 4 inches at the best locations currently. Then flurries as you get away from the boarder. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Penland Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 18z NAM absolutely hammers the border counties on and off all day Thursday. Looks like plenty of moisture coming down. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmoon Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Looks like some record low temperatures possible also. Bitter cold for April 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamouslyHot Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Looks to be some impressive NW flow snow coming for the highest elevations. I'll be hiking Mount Leconte this weekend. There should probably be around 4-6" of accumulation on the peak. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 It’s crazy, I just knew you’d hit 80” with the pattern we were looking at. Then it shifted west...I was kinda glad for that shift. It took forever for the snow to finally melt. The drift on the north side of my house was at least 6' deep. The guys at the country club here were measuring snow this season too and according to them we've had 75". It's less than a mile from my location and only 100' higher, so I'm guessing there's some snowdrifts included in that total. I didn't notice that much more snow over there anyway.

Sw NC weather Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 NWS just issued a flash flood warning for Macon. It seems like we’ve been under a warning more in the last 2 years then the past 4 or 5 years before that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchighcountrywx Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 GSP: THE ARRIVAL OF THE COLD AIR WILL RAPIDLY BRING SFC TEMPS INTO THE 30S AT HIGH ELEVATIONS BEGINNING LATE EVENING; FREEZING LEVELS WILL CONTINUE TO FALL SUCH THAT MIN TEMPS REACH THE MID 20S IN HIGHER ELEVATIONS IN THE MORNING (MIN TEMP RECORD AT AVL DOES NOT LOOK TO BE IN JEOPARDY). STILL LOOKING FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE IN TERMS OF A NW FLOW SNOW EVENT, WITH THE MAJOR "CLASSIC" INGREDIENTS LOOKING TO COME TOGETHER TO PRODUCE ACCUMULATING SNOW. THE STRONG WINDS AND RAPID COOLING OF THE MIXED LAYER WOULD SUGGEST ABOVE-AVERAGE SLRS, AND A NUMBER OF SOURCES STILL DEPICT A SMALL AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY. STILL THINKING WE WILL SEE A GREAT LAKES CONNECTION; ALWAYS TRICKY TO FIND GUIDANCE THAT PRODUCES BELIEVABLE QPF IN THE UPSLOPE AREAS, BUT FEELING PRETTY GOOD ABOUT SNOW TOTALS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES IN MOST OF THE NW FLOW ZONE, WITH ISOLATED 3". QPF TAPERS OFF AFTER 18Z, BUT AT LEAST SOME FLURRIES MAY LINGER INTO THU EVENING. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamouslyHot Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Is there a model that handles NW flow snow the best? I’m assuming it would be one of the CAMs. HRRR or 3k NAM?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly none of them do particularly well. The NAM is probably the best but it tends to overdo totals.

Tyler Penland Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Flurries and 30 right now. Just enough on the porch and cars to say it's snowed.

WxKnurd Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Sunny skies here after a freeze this morning (no clue on temp but solid hunk of ice on the truck bed cover so I’m guessing upper 20’s maybe). Might try to find some snow over in Harmon’s Den area later while doing some hiking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamouslyHot Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I was disappointed to see only a light dusting that resulted from yesterday’s system. Fortunately, it seems as though the NW flow is staying strong. High peaks should pick up at least an inch I would think.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Heaviest shower of the day. Things have dusted up nicely. It's 22.3 and breezy. This is probably the last of the season and it was a good way to end. I enjoyed today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
