Even upped some totals a bit around Asheville. Kind of more spread out with the accumulations. The lee side of the mountains I think are going to be toast. This is normal for this type event. Anyone outside the flow snow areas who gets Anything should consider yourself lucky. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect we'll continue to see changes via the guidance right up til tomorrow afternoon for many. I am a bit intrigued to see if there's enough moisture pooling along the Arctic frontal boundary to give the Mountains a quick burst before the NWFS kicks in. Mighty cold air follows that Arctic front bringing lows in the single digits and wind chills below zero. Winter is far from over and I strongly suspect we'll be tracking another storm this time next week! Yeah I agree especially the trajectory of this flow may see yall do well there in Maggie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin NCwx Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Looks like a temporary break from the cold for a few days. But after that cutter it gets cold again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Penland Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Looks like a temporary break from the cold for a few days. But after that cutter it gets cold again.I'm good with my driveway actually melting.This may be the longest I've had widespread multiple inches of snow (now ice) on the ground. Going on 2 weeks and should eclipse that easily. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Euro looks good for the mountains. A solid 2 to 4 inches is my thinking in the favored areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 We ready for whatever gents?Gotta go scrape the ice off my snow measuring board. Ha. Don't know if it means much of anything but none of the models have that band developing over TN/AL. Mping reports show its reaching the ground in at least some spots too.

First batch of ski guests arrived last night with another batch arriving today and our friends flying in land just before noon. We have a full house of out of town folks excited to see some snow. My expectations are rather low, but hopefully enough falls to cover the ground! Our hope levels are the same. Cover the ground. Everything else is just gravy. I hope your friends have fun and see lots of snow! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Whats cool is you can see the waves of moisture or lower level moisture all the way back into Illinois. That's what's going to help create a lot of lift for us in the mountains. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
