My family and I spend a lot of time in that area and I can tell you, I’ve seen a number of times that Waynesville will have rain while Maggie Valley has frozen precip.Looking at a cam of Waynesville which is close to where Accu is, looks like just wet conditions.

…that ain’t Atlanta…
Even then, I doubt you get that much of a temperature variance there with it being only an additional 700 ft or so higher than most of the surrounding areas

Its always interesting to see how much elevation is affecting temperatures in given weather situations, it definitely varies. With the kind of wind we are having, temperatures at similar elevations should be within .5 degrees of each other or less. Anything outside that range is certainly incorrect. There are two home weather stations on Sweat Mountain, 2.8 miles north of me, at around 1500-1600', both are 38.1F, 2.5F colder then me at 1135'.
His fridge because I have elevation and its still 39f here and 70 miles north,

Then tell us where you are at 36F with 50+ mph wind gusts. We are dying to know.
Banter please, this thread is borderline disaster
