Temp at 28. You guys don't know how lucky and blessed you are up there to be seeing snow. I haven't seen a flake of snow down this way in almost 2 years coming this January. I'm glad you guys are getting it. Were in a horrible stretch east of the mountains with no snow. Absolutely terrible. Hoping for better days in the near future. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 I've only picked up a total of 1.25" of snow so far, but it's still coming down good this morning. Maybe we'll get to 2" before it wraps up. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BhamParker Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 I keep trying to find a storm to chase into the mountains but they all keep fizzling out on me. Hoping the weekend system won’t fizzle for next week but it’s been tough so far. . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Penland Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 0z GFS is a step in the right direction for Wednesday night. I could see this sneak into a light event if things trend a little stronger with the low. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see this sneak into a light event if things trend a little stronger with the low. Even more with the 006 Z run of the GFS. Over night discussion from gsp-1:30am: The GFS and EC have maintained decent run-to-run consistency, with low tracks far enough south that only our southernmost zones fall under the precip shield. The GDPS has also shifted the low farther south, but features a sharper thermal gradient and slightly slower trough, so it is more expansive with precip across the Carolinas in a somewhat more Miller B-type pattern. It had been the wettest but warmest model 24 hours ago, but now its sfc temps/wet-bulbs make it the coldest model despite having all the precip. A few members of all three of these models' ensembles depict a wetter solution, but as we typically see, these members are among the warmest during the passage of the low.

WNC_Fort Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Rainstorm after rainstorm. Precip doesn’t seem to be the issue but we can’t even get cold enough during January? Just disappointing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Having no blocking over the top is hurting us. This Nino is not really coupled to the northern hemisphere. This Nino is not acting like a traditional Nino. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Models are trending worse and worse for the next 2 or 3 systems. Lots of rain even for higher elevations. Punting until January 20 may be a real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I hadn't looked at the 6z so yeah, that trough coming into the west sooner doesn't help matters. We need to get a true Nino augmented NPAC Aleutian LP. The -PDO is hurting . Mainly the extreme WPAC warm SST'S are what's appears to be causing the problem imo. Wants to force a Nina like NPAC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 Well the Euro does give the high mountains a couple inches of wet snow before transitioning to rain. It's basically showing a Miller B now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
