Buckethead Posted Monday at 12:43 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 12:43 PM Someone had a rough morning going through Windy Gap at the Madison/Yancey line. 20 and steady light snow on 19E just outside Burnsville Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxKnurd Posted Monday at 12:53 PM Share Posted Monday at 12:53 PM 1/4” here, flurries to light snow falling with hardly any clouds around. Can see the sun hitting the mountain across from me actually. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BretWx Posted Monday at 01:11 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:11 PM Agreed. For now, Wednesday is mostly looking like a small even. A nice taste of winter for those who have missed out to the east. Still within two days but it pulled back a lot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted Monday at 01:51 PM Share Posted Monday at 01:51 PM I honestly think this could be trending best for us given the situs besides right at the immediate coast. I think today's runs will gives us more to be excited about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted Monday at 03:58 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:58 PM Plus when the front comes screaming through here we get more flow snow.Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BretWx Posted Monday at 04:07 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:07 PM Maybe we can still get a surprise out of this, but not looking like it's going to be much. Will be nice to see some flakes falling during the day again, no doubt! I am still feeling the past year's snow droughts, so I will take anything I can get this winter! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Not sure what happened to the NW trend but it seems to have taken a vacation lately.We did get 1.5" overnight which was very nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gopack42 Posted Monday at 06:20 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:20 PM GSP says 2-4 inches for higher elevations Wed thru Thurs. Not much mention of any significant flow snow Thurs, but if we can pull off 3-4 inches here, I'll take it. I do want the major bomb but looks like we might have to wait until next winter.

Pump the brakes bro. In the mountains we still get snow up through the middle of April. Just because we could miss this one doesn't mean we are done with storms. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted Monday at 06:56 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:56 PM This was a famous late season snowstorm. The huge snow on May 5th 1992. Was a huge surprise. https://climate.ncsu.edu/blog/2017/05/remembering-the-surprise-spring-snow-in-may-1992/ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted Monday at 07:09 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:09 PM I believe a general 2 to 4 inches is possible even here in the higher Valleys. To me, the big question is the following upslope snow development as the surface low pressure passes by and the potent upper low slides in Wednesday night into Thursday. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted Monday at 09:08 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:08 PM One thing is that the Euro and the NAM haven't done a great job at showing upslope snow this season. The gfs has been leading that this season so while the NAM snow totals don't look fantastic I don't think it is really picking up on the flow snow at all.

Met1985 Posted Monday at 09:13 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:13 PM Also to note last nights flow snow overperformed again against what was modeled. So that's something that we need to keep in mind as to what Hunter was alluding to also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Valley Steve Posted Monday at 09:34 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:34 PM I suspect if the 00Z and 6Z short range guidance increases the amount of deformation banding and heavier as well as a bit longer duration upslope episode, we'll see Winter Storm Watches hoisted for the Mountain Counties tomorrow morning. Now if those thunderstorms along the Gulf Coast end up not coming to fruition as the guidance suggests, we could see higher totals Wednesday with over running snow. We will see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
