Buckethead Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 31 and flurries in Wolf. The wind is already a little unnerving up here, the monster oaks on the SE corner of my house are swaying a lot. So much so that I have everyone sleeping in the basement bedrooms.This is the base of the bigger one.

Tyler Penland Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 30.2 with a solid 1/10" of an ice/sleet mixture stuck to everything. Porch is an ice rink. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Penland Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Worth noting the convection down along the gulf does seem to be impacting upstream rain intensity. Could help reduce totals a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 If we get into 1 or 2 of those intense bands then lookout. But already a ton of water has fallen. Moderate to heavy rainfall in Haywood and Buncombe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Just now went above freezing. Got a little over 1/8" of ice and a half inch of sleet. Enough to make the limbs sag on the trees. Raingauge is still froze up but it isn't overflowing the intake so once it thaws I'll have a rain reading but it's dumping at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotoWeatherman Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 My place on Beech is wide open to the east. Just clocked a 60 mph gust with a 10min average of 33mph. All my highest wind readings I get are from the east. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my highest wind readings I get are from the east. Wow. Lots more of that is coming. No wind to speak of yet at my location. Picked up .89" over night with lots more to come around. On a remote day from school (which is fine with me ) so I can work and track this from the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiseWeather Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Really worried about blowing rock up into the mountains… all that weight on those trees and powerlines might make for a bad mixture with the wind coming. The blowing rock downtown live cam looks beautiful right now though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Not much of a wind issue in the Valley so far, but it has been pouring rain all night. I'm sure Jonathan Creek is running high. 44 and moderate rain at this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 GSP seems a bit bullish on the unusual flow snow starting early this evening for the SW and W facing mountains, particularly the Smokies. It is looking like a potential 10 to 14 hour flow snow event as winds behind the front slowly veer from the SW to W before finally favoring the typical NWFS locations. Winter Weather Advisory appears to be likely later this afternoon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Weather Advisory appears to be likely later this afternoon. Seems like there would be a lot of moisture available upstream for the event. Fwiw, the short range models are rather convective looking later tonight and even have some snow showers breaking containment into the foothills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
