Maggie Valley Steve Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 17 minutes ago, GoAPPS said: Some of the models keep insisting on a brief period of snow in the mountains tomorrow morning. Models appear to be struggling with the waves of low pressure riding along the front within a negative tilted trough. Some of the guidance suggests an upper air disturbance following the cold front from the W to NW as well. The wind is going to be howling and very cold air should move in late Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning. The 3km NAM is depicting a dusting to an inch of snow here in Maggie. If that happens, it will be the third accumulating snow so far this Winter. Still waiting on a bigger storm and perhaps there is something on the horizon just before Christmas. We will see. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Wind has really picked up the past 20 minutes. We've dropped down to 39 already. Not sure if we are going to get the moisture in here though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow dog Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 A bit off topic, but somewhat weather related....Does anyone know much about the new management at Wolf Laurel Ski resort (now Hatley Point)? I really want to try them out and hope they succeed, but I'm already seeing things that I dont like. From what i can see online, they have done an excellent job with rennovations to the lodge, and have added what looks like a nice high-end restaurant. However, they still havent opened their slopes! And as i check web cams, I see that they are the ONLY resort that is NOT running their snow guns...WHY? Surely the new management knows that winter in this area is not wall to wall cold, and they MUST take advantage of cold times to build up bases. Anyway, does anyone know when they might open? Before Christmas? I just fear that there isnt much of a philosophy change from the old owners.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Radar out of Nashville and Morristown suggest another disturbance is heading our way for tonight. Temperature has dropped to 30° with occasional flurries and very gusty winds. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they were focusing on snowmak8ng at the top of the mountain, out of view of the cameras, and are opening this weekend. I guess we'll see.Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 24° here this morning. No snow on my decks this time. I can hear the snow blowers at Tube World still going. It's going to be a great weekend for Winter Weather fun here in the Valley! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk That's good to hear, and again, I am rooting for them! Its easy to criticize from afar, but good grief, they bought the resort over a year ago, and I would have thought that the lifts would have been serviced a long time ago. Anyway, I'm glad that it appears close to opening! ALso glad they are opening the back side of the mountain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Penland Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 Up at Grayson Highlands. Was hoping for some good rime ice but while it is 25 and ridiculously windy not much to report in the way of snow/time ice. A good 4-6" of needle ice in spots though lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 Looking like a sneaky event with a decent CAD in place for Sunday morning particularly for the Northern Mountains. A wintry mix potential is increasing suggesting a Winter Weather Advisory may be needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted Saturday at 01:51 PM Share Posted Saturday at 01:51 PM Winter Weather Advisory coming overnight into tomorrow morning for portions of the Mountains with a Hazardous Weather mention for Haywood County as well as other Mountain locations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheelwx Posted Saturday at 08:07 PM Share Posted Saturday at 08:07 PM You mountain folks may want to check out the 18z NAM. Major increase in ice - probably warning criteria. TW 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncjoaquin Posted Sunday at 01:45 PM Share Posted Sunday at 01:45 PM Spent the week in St Louis. Very cold all week, then it warmed up enough for 35 and a windy rain yesterday. It does that everywhere that I'm at. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted Tuesday at 11:43 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:43 AM Waking up to a muggy 56° this morning. Cold front arrives Wednesday night/Thursday morning dropping temperatures back to at least normal if not colder. Maybe a slight chance of NWFS, but keeping a closer eye on the weekend. The guidance has switched to a neutral/slightly negative trough and a much stronger shortwave diving in from the Great Lakes. Snow chance have increased and the transfer of low level energy has moved closer to the Coast. I'll be watching so see if the trends continue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
