buckeyefan1 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Ya'll know that in order to cash out on the highest snow totals, you have to be able to smell the rain Seriously though, good luck everyone!! I hope not to be encased in ice so that I can get out and take some pictures of the winter wonderland 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holston_River_Rambler Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Hi y'all. first of all hope everyone scores big with this one. But I also just noticed that MRX was mentioning the possibility of a blizzard warning for their side of the mts above 4000'. I couldn't imagine winds would be less over there with that 850 flow. Didn't see any mention from GSP or Blacksburg, but I may have just missed it. From the overnight disco: Finally, the gusty winds in combination with snow will bring near blizzard like conditions to the Smokies, generally above 4000 feet. It is certainly possible a blizzard warning may be needed later, but for now will let the WSW handle it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDawg Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Really only the 0z NAM last night was a complete disaster, and the 6z immediately came back more in line with previous runs at least when it came to P-type durations/snow totals/etc. In the end though GSP making the safe call, no one's gonna be upset if the snow busts slightly over, and their forecast is still well within warning criteria. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WPC just updated the Surface Low Track forecast. 6z rgem lines up well with this track. And still has snow falling Monday morning! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiQuiDBuD Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Good morning fellow winter weather (nerds) lovers! 28 degrees in Cashiers at 3500'. Got my and ready for the show! Point forecast has bumped our storm totals up a couple inches. 3-7 tonight9-13 tomorrowup to another 1" tomorrow nightI've never seen that before, so my excitement is at all time highs.Hoping everyone on this board gets what they wish from this one!I did see in GSP AFD that they said our La Nina winter is on hold for a bit. You love to see it!Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want some snow after all this work, lol. Good luck to everyone. I still feel like we are going to do really well. Edited to add, the GFS STILL thinks we are getting hammered and also that NW flow means business. 4 to 6 inches is what I think of as ideal, I would rather not lose power and trees with more than that. I had a great time during the blizzard of 93 but I was renting back then LOL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin NCwx Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 From GSP... they're not buying the nam. The mountains, meanwhile are on track for a mostly-snow forecast. The warm nose should not penetrate into the Appalachians. Profiles here appear to remain well-saturated and sub-freezing through most of the event 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BhamParker Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 We are live from our place here in lake Toxaway! Headed to the store this morning to get some final things and then we will be ready for the storm. It is beautiful up here. We got in very late, but that didn’t stop our little man from getting us up bright and early. It was a windy drive up to here and the driveway is pretty steep. I definitely don’t see how we will make it out Monday, but here’s hoping. Also have our fingers crossed to keep power. Looking forward to looking upstream today to see how our system looks and is performing 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it man I hear business is good up in that area! Just like it is everywhere else in WNC.Haha. Yes sir, business is booming just like this winter storm! I'm shocked that despite massive price increases across the board, construction and remodeling have only increased. Of course, this area is pretty immune to much concern where money is involved, they've evidently got enough to burn in case the power goes out. Zero complaints business-wise, save for the supply chain headaches!Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
