NavarreDon Posted yesterday at 02:49 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:49 PM This looks solid from the 00z gfs.Sent from my SM-G998U using TapatalkLooks like a classic Miller A to me. I think the GFS and Canadian are sniffing this out. Questions will be, the Low track and how much moisture accompanies it. Changes always occur but this looks great for the Mnts. It doesn’t look like a monster but my early guess is there will be some OBS with 6”+ from the system. . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a general 4-8 inches will be a good cover and will make a lot of people happy. We've got cold setting in now, snow on the ground and really leading up this is one of the best setups we've had in a long time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyefan1 Posted yesterday at 03:16 PM Share Posted yesterday at 03:16 PM I’ve got hopes of 6” although I’ll be happy with enough to do a bit of sledding, make a snowball and watching it fall 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNC_Fort Posted yesterday at 03:25 PM Share Posted yesterday at 03:25 PM lol. Love seeing the Asheville snow hole show up on the maps now. Feels like a classic storm now. Foothills/Leeside are showing lower totals in general. Something to watch for our foothill folks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted yesterday at 03:51 PM Share Posted yesterday at 03:51 PM Shouldn't be a big issue with the storm track. Models can overdo it at times. My biggest concern is gulf convectionGulf convection is always a concern but will know to what extent till later. I always fear a dry slot but that happen if the slp tends stronger as it exits to our s and se. the lee side snow hole is a real worry. But I would like to see what it looks like when we are sitting at Thursday Morning before my Chips are cash! . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavarreDon Posted yesterday at 04:12 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:12 PM If I was up in the Mnts. My concern with gulf coast convection would be heightened if this was a monster storm. This one doesn’t seem to support it but you never know. Always a good idea to read up on downstream AFD’s. Below is a snippet of MOB’s overnight disco. These Mets are some of the best I’ve seen with severe weather. Long story short is I don’t see it being an issue for you all.The surface lowwill briefly bring a warm front into the coastal counties beforea cold front follows quickly behind, but no tangible instabilitywill accompany what will be a rather meager warm sector.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavarreDon Posted yesterday at 04:19 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:19 PM My first Miller A here in the foothills Not sure of your location and elevation as I don’t follow the board like I used to (congrats on the move from SC!). I think the warm nose may come into play in some of the foothills, that being said I’d bet you get your wish of snowballs & sledding. Grab some popcorn and enjoy the show!!! . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Valley Steve Posted yesterday at 07:21 PM Share Posted yesterday at 07:21 PM Looking like we're going to get a storm! I think a 5 to 8 inch snowfall is looking good. The SW Mountains could see some isolated totals nearing a foot. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Above 85 and just above hwy 11 sitting right at 1000’-1100’ ft elevation Hey, you're real close by right across the state line. Spend every day I can in the summer fishing down at the Chattooga on either 76 or 28. Generally if we do well over here then your area does as well, although we do have a bit better elevation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love going to the bridges at both locations! I do the 28-107 loop around the mts often. There’s some really cool back roads that I can’t go down in my Kia, but I will walk them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
