Met1985 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Clouds and 16 here. Windy and ready for the storm. Went to the store today and fought my way through there like a Spartan! Got in firewood and looking forward to watching the show. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got in firewood and looking forward to watching the show. I had to go to Johnson City for a doc appointment and they said half the patients didn't show up today because of "the storm" hahaah. It flurried the whole way there and back. It was a mess getting up the mountain from Banner Elk when I got back around 5. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but I'd love to find a place closer to the park I've got a Seneca address, but I'm about halfway between the two. I do sit just a touch higher than clemson and have noticed that I'm always a couple deg cooler than they are too. I've got my fingers crossed it helps me Friday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Just looked out and we've got light snow. Temp is down to 15 degrees and windy. Whoever said this was going to be a stagnant Arctic airmass isn't paying attention to the models. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 7° with moderate snow. The ratios have to be over 40:1, this stuff is fluffy!2.5" of unpredicted snow today and counting. I've surpassed my season snow total from 2022-23 (32.5".)Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sw NC weather Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Big south shift on the Rap. Was really juiced up to, if not for sleet in the heart of the storm it would’ve been even bigger. Globals look good, time to get the short range models on our side. See new run on the bottom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 GSP always loves the NAM. To be fair it has gotten warm noses right when every other model showed snow. I remember back in 2013 with the upper low, it was the first model to show rain this far north instead of heavy wet snow. I think it's a bit too amped this storm and hopefully it will shift a bit south starting at 12Z. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
