Met1985 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 You just know this is a cold air mass whenever you see the arctic haze in the morning and there isn't a cloud in the sky. But this isn't even the coldest we will get this week. Wait until this weekend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNC_Fort Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 After this weekend, it's going to be a quiet few weeks on here... Glad that some of you scored some snow out of this pattern. But, yikes. I'm not looking forwards to 60s in January after getting blanked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I was not there for this event but my son was there getting measurements. All he told me before he left today was more than a foot which looks right. Here is a current pic of the table he used to measure. View in the background is sugar mtn just to the left of that right side tree and then grandfather mtn to the left of sugar. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Made it to 3.6 this morning which froze up the pipes unfortunately.Did make it out for a cold hike yesterday. Went to Bailey Falls near Erwin, TN. Easily the most dangerous, crazy hike I've done to date but totally worth it. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
