Better get above 4000 or 4500 feet. Upper 30s and low 40s in the mtns currently. Boone reporting 37 last hour.

This view from the SE shows just how elevation dependent today's High Country snow is
Charlotte NC still being advertised for a storm later today that evolves into a little wind threat for South Carolina. Very persistent HRRR and NAM.

Yeah I’m not even seeing snow on the ground in banner elk which is close to 4000 feet. Wow.

Yeah what could have been with colder temps.. Currently pouring rain here and a cool 38.
Sums up this winter nicely. We just cannot get it all to line up.
What a winter.
Nice snow falling on Beech MTN ski resort cam. Snow level should fall some according to NWS Blacksburg.
Well damn, models still struggling but going in the wrong direction. Lol
Looks like UK had some light RN/SN for that Thursday system

Rug pull 7 of this winter from the gefs, It just doesn’t want to snow here, NS was probably more out of sync 
Check out these DP’s ?

UKMET says no dice w/ the mid-week system.
We need legitimate precip to overwhelm the shallow above freezing layer near the surface. Very frustrating to have enough cold air in place for once and a great surface low track, yet no moisture.
We seriously can't do anything right.

Yea all we talked about is timing a Lp and the cold just right once. Been drowning for months everytime a system rolls through. Finally get it timed right and its the lack of qpf that seals our fate. Just horrendous luck. I would say Im ready for next winter, but seems like I said that last year lol, and look where it got us.

Dried up or not it would be cold rain. Check the 3k NAM for more moisture.

Northern stream energy at H5 has shifted north a bunch in the last 3 runs. One more shift like that and this is a DC clipper
Euro trended a little wetter for NC/VA boarder counties and I think sounding supported some snow. Maybe this one trending north will suck our coastal in a little?Nomanslandva

Also, WTH? 3km vs. 12km. Same time and run. But very much different.Northern stream energy at H5 has shifted north a bunch in the last 3 runs. One more shift like that and this is a DC clipper
