The drought pattern is definitely over. If we can get a wet system every week for the next 5, one has to be a winter storm…right?
Keep getting at bats and you’ll eventually run into one
This is what happened in 88 imby...
Continuous close but no cigar with cold rains.
Then Boom
1.73 so far and 7.1 for the month. Was a decent dry spell and had been running 4" below avg and about 6" below last year, now over 50" for the year. Above avg. I'm a broken record but it's always feast or famine, every month is either less than 2" or 5" and above never in between

Obviously to be taken with a major grain of salt, but the end of the NAM 3km is pretty juiced up.
I'd bet this event over performs for many areas. That back end vort is going to bust a lot of peoples forecast.

Northwest Flow Snow alert!
Are the models still showing a NW Flow event for Friday? And if so, do these typically extend to locations like Grandfather Mountain? Thinking of taking kids to the mountains for a hike that is accessible with the Parkway being closed.
Right at 2” here.

Any nw flow and grandfather will cash in. Same for sugar,beech. 5,000 + peaks sitting in far nw nc. Good as it gets with nwfs events

Does it matter if you are on the lee side of these peaks or is any amount of elevation good enough?
If the parkway is closed, grandfather is likely to also be closed

Was concerned about that too, but their website shows them open as I think you can access off 221.
But do we think the NW flow will still happen on Friday?
If I lived in TN, AL, GA I'd be rooting hard for the 3k NAM right now
I would think it’s likely to happen but I’m not honestly qualified. I can say though that they usually close the park as almost all of the attractions are above 4k feet and the road going up is sketchy if it’s snowing.
