Phelps Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 A healthy inch or so where I am on the mountain. Let's see what the NWF can do. The temperature drop was impressive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 The shift is going to happen soon to a flow snow event. You can see it coming in know and that really should last all day in the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxKnurd Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Temps continue to plummet, down to 17. This temp drop is making a run at reaching levels of one I experienced in Ohio way back in like 2014. 45 degrees when I left the hotel in the morning and -2 when I got back to it that evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Over 6.5" now and down to 16°. That wind is unrelenting. I'm heading up to the bald in a little while. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Wind is bonkers here in Blowing Rock. Ran into some low visibility snow on the way in around Valle Crucis. Actually some occasional sun over here on the escarpment right now. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Shaping up to be the best flow snow event at my new place that I’ve been home thus fa. No clue on any kind of official total because of the wind earlier when nothing was falling blowing it off my deck but it’s looking like I might be approaching 3” on my deck railing. The 2-4” call verified for me. If it does this another 4-6 hours I think I can make a run at 6” and the 30” for the season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should continue to see snow into early night tonight. The wind is howling and the temps continue to fall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiQuiDBuD Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Beautiful flakes off and on through most of the morning, dropped to 20 degrees around 11:30 and now warmed to 23 with sun peeking out. Only got a dusting overnight which melted, then a second dusting mid-morning that's mostly melted. Definitely underperformed the official forecast but I love seeing flakes flying, regardless!Congrats to those that cashed in on this March surprise!Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Man when you get under one of these squalls it puts it down. How’s this for a 12 hour temperature change. Went from 51.4 at 12 am to 14.2 at 12 pm for a delta of -37.2. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Just had a squall run through Blowing Rock drop visibility down to 100 yards or so. Looked like fog. Wild. Lovin it. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxKnurd Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Measured 4” on protected areas of my deck, so that’s what I’m going with. 27-28” for the season. Hovering around 14 degrees after dipping down to 13 earlier. Hiked up to the top of the mountain (4100’) and got blasted by the wind, made for a frozen beard. View from the little lookout up there. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
