Funky inversion this morning, low-mid 20’s valley, mid 30’s in the say 3600-4000’ range and then back down around 30 above that it seems looking at weather stations in the area.  35 at my place.

Had a low here of 21. Crazy how inversions Like that work. And how big of a difference there is from mountain to mountain.

We are literally 3 days away from a little event and the NWS has nothing.  We have the NAM, EURO, and gfs showing something.  Strange but maybe they are jaded like us this winter lol.

NWS this afternoon forecasted a 20% chance of snow showers for Banner Elk on Saturday.

GSP is a bit more bullish this morning regarding snow chances with the very dynamic clipper system. A dusting to an inch or two for those above 3500 ft with the highest totals near 4 inches across the Smokies. Interesting to read GSP mentioning low topped thunderstorms and small hail possible outside the Mountains. Maybe some thundersnow? Could be a non zero chance.

The energy is trending north on the short range models and GFS was north  at 12Z

The energy has been north but we have less expansion of precipitation across our area with today's models.  Any chance I think most will be happy about.  I think this is going to be right along the border areas.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for western North Carolina.

 

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

 

Hazardous weather is not expected at this time.

 

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.

 

A fast moving system will bring a quick shot of snow across the high

elevations of the mountains, especially along the Tennessee border.

Generally 1-2" will be possible, but the highest elevations above

4000ft may see 2-4" with a swath of 4-6" possible across the Smokies

above 5000ft. Any high elevation roads may experience a few slick

spots.
