At least the rain has moved out for a while. Hopefully the skiers can get in a decent day before the storms move in this evening. Wow, 34 and fog here currently.

wncsnow Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I'm beginning to think that this wedge isn't going to break. It only got to 55 yesterday and foggy still today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Water levels are good, have fun!That was more of a workout then I remember it being! Paddled about a mile upstream and relaxed on an island and fished for a while. Caught a few small bass and bream, but nothing worthy of a photo. That sun felt great before the clouds rolled in!

If I have time one evening I'm going to try my luck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hvward Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Good spot to be for this weekend’s storm. Who knows, I’ve seen crazier trends. That northern stream could very well carry a bit more moisture. Models are showing specs of precip. Something to certainly watch. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hvward Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Interest setup as well Wednesday morning, GFS has trend two degrees cooler over the past couple of runs around AVL. Looks like a slight warm nose could allow a quick burst of snow to reach the surface. NAM had snowfall for many but 3km NAM didn’t show the same profile. Will be interested to see how the 0z NAM suited come in here soon. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Yeah how many times do we see that and in such a small area.I've seen it a few times growing up down there. I can remember a couple that produced decent totals. Always a last minute surprise though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Penland Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Well looks like that lee trough is working out. Snow around Dawsonville and Gainesville, GA. Crazy setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Local Yokel Wx Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Parkway is back open and found some light snow around 9am. Looks like most of the parkway picked up a skiff overnight.

I ended up being the first car up there after opening the gate; the second car arrived about a minute after me. Numerous times my wife and I hiking or myself on the bicycle have been on a closed section of the Parkway and they opened it. I was always amazed at how quickly the cars followed. This time it was me LOL. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I def was not the first, there were many cars at overlooks taking advantage of the open trailheads but everyone was excited for it be back open. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Are you still on the mountain@SnoJoe? I saw that someone over your way decided that yesterday was a good day to burn their yard off.
