Buckethead Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 My temp was 35.4° at 6am. Currently it's 25.5°. Not as crazy as the temp drop work the Christmas storm but still kinda impressive.Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Interesting drive to Asheville today. Was 37 with a low cloud deck in Marion, up to 41 halfway up Old Fort mountain then down to 38 on top of the mountain. A few sprinkles on the back edge of the cloud deck before punching out. It was 46 in Asheville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherlover Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Wanting to stay the night in the Boone/blowing Rock area. Trying to avoid hotels but wanted an Airbnb.. Everything around that area seems to be booked up. Anyone have any ideas ? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Sun ended up coming out here, wind has a bite to it otherwise another pretty, albeit colder, day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its an easy drive from there to spend a nice day in the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy you had snow since 5 and down below you it didn’t start up til 7:45-8ish. Coming down steadier now, comes and goes in steadiness. Light dusting on everything here as well.

SnoJoe Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Light snow here as well. Maybe an half inch so far. It's cold (20.3) but not much wind yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are headed that way now from shelby Met or AsheCounty might be your guys for this question but it should be snowing off and on all day, but late morning-early afternoon looks prime with the upper level energy swinging through. If it’s snow you’re looking for and Boone doesn’t deliver, you can always head west to Banner Elk - or at least that’s what I always did while snow chasing in college.

Local Yokel Wx Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Nice snow globe action this morning in Waynesville, not sticking but pretty. Only trace amounts grass, deck, and cars @WxKnurd, my buddy up Chad Crawford sent me some pics. Solid dusting up to a half inch he said (around 9:45am). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real heavy, it was putting it down when I drove through. Wife sent a picture of the deck and looked like we are past an inch and working on a second now at home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlatLander48 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 About time it started coming down in Boone. Green to white in about 20 minutes and visibility is horrible. About time for the wrecks to commence for people not ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
