Met1985 Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Moderate snow here as well. Coming down at a good clip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckethead Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Up to 4.25" now and 21° at the house. Coming down pretty hard... mostly nickel and dime sized flakes with occasional gobs mixed in. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Nice pics Bucket! It's been pretty heavy the last hour or so. Haven't measured but have to be pushing 4 inches. Nice event for the end of November! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoJoe Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 It's turned into a true flow snow now. You can see how shallow the layer is. The moon is very visible but yet it's pounding snow. It's squeezing out every available drop of moisture. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are behind but fastly approaching over an inch here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shut off pretty quickly after that. That's when Boone usually does better though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing upstream anywhere near Big Bald's elevation.Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 The ULL is looking better for this Friday/Saturday especially for high elevation folks. If it tracks right it may be bigger than this system with a lot of moisture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Let the dog out at 12:30 and we had what looked to be 1-1.5”, approaching 3” now if not already there. Heading towards Harmon Den area to hunt this morning, I’m expecting 5+ there even at the lower elevation. Radar showed them getting hammered when I went to bed. ETA: Definitely had to have scrapped 3” off my truck. Roads are fine even with it being in the 20’s. Neighborhood road had a coating on it but that was it. Around 20 at home, 25 here in town and just a dusting. Best event since we moved up here in mid-Feb 2019. Think we can end up around 4 if it keeps snowing those small, furious flakes til sunrise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sw NC weather Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Not as much here as you high mountain folks but I’m gonna call it an inch here. Great way to start off the season. Let’s try to do it again Saturday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found a great rub line on the edge of a rhododendron thicket but wrong side of the ridge for the wind. Couple miles back now, not far from the AT. Just nice to be out and clear my head. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Still coming down! Still some returns upstream but I doubt I have another inch coming. I measure 10-11" in lots of places but 9"was on my board. I have some really big drifts on the nnw side of the house. I'll try to get behind the house and snap a pic later. 1:30 update: I was wrong! Double digits now. This was the best nwf event (by a lot) I've seen since moving here! Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxKnurd Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Talked to a couple on the AT that were on Max Patch this morning, chest deep drifts according to them. One ridge I walked on had some shin to knee deep drifts. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One ridge I walked on had some shin to knee deep drifts.Yeah, I believe it.. I'm pretty sure these drifts are easily 4'+. The orientation of my house plus the topography make it pile up on that side. I'm itching to walk up to the top of the bald today. The wife made me promise I wouldn't do it alone anymore (sigh) so I'm looking for a fellow crazy person to go with. My usual hiking partner is battling really aggressive cancer so he can't now. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
