Winter still wants to show its muscle as first day of spring equinox is here. Light flurries stared last night and the early morning hours we had some good snow showers take shape as the NW wind was pushing thru. If this was January or February accumulation would have been more but half inch was welcomed. Started off the day at 27F but warmed up just a little to 36F. Winds have been gusty at times but not too crazy. 


Week ahead warm afternoons after t cool mornings with chance of rain mid week. There’s no real warm up in near future and actually a possible cold snap coming end of week into the weekend. Will moisture be available? That will be the question but we have plenty of time to track that. But would definitely hold off on planting anything especially high Country folks. Unless you can wrap and cover the tender plants. My rule I go by for planting up here is mid to late May into June to plant anything tender. 

OTD:

Highest Temp 91F Louisburg NC 1948

Coldest Temp 3F Mt Mitchell 1981

Greatest Rainfall 4” Carthage NC 1965

Greatest Snowfall 8” Highlands NC 1915


Appreciate everyone support and hope everyone has a great rest of there Sunday. Make sure to follow and subscribe. Will be doing some stuff even in the snow off season that some may be interesting in.

4500’ Yancey NC/High Country WX

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​2/6 /2023 7:30PM Next couple days will be calm so I am going to take small break and work on other projects I have going on. Ready to gear up for this weekend. Looks to be a good chance at some snow in the high country along the border. Early call for those favorable NW Flow Areas could see some accumulation of snow. Temperatures will be chilly.  The transition from this blog site to a website is coming soon. Reasoning is easier access for you the reader. Also to me makes it look professional. This wouldn’t be possible if it wasn’t for the loyal supporters. I’m by no means a writer so my blogs are more a hit down thoughts and stats type but I’m working on getting better at this for you. Also even thou my social media following in the past year since I started to give updates and such for my area has went to thousands across a couple platforms I will be scaling back likely on that. I’m not leaving social media or anything as of now it’s just I want to give eve...

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 10/27/2022 3:30PM Want to start off this blog with a appreciation to all of you. Really love sharing this microclimate information but most importantly love interacting with you all. The other night a anonymous person made a very generous contribution to the weather fund. The funds that are given helps tremendously towards new equipment like weather stations/cameras/chasing/and lot more. I want to give as much information accurately as I possibly can especially for the high country areas that get barely any attention at all. Again I truly appreciate you all.  Share/ Retweet these blogs are much appreciated. Goal for this blog is to show what a micro climate can do.  Excited to announce NC/TN High Country WX has a store online now. Couple items there now. Will be adding more in the coming days. Money goes weather items and adventures.  Go check it out! https://www.bonfire.com/store/nctn-high-country-wx/ 4500’ Yancey NC Information  Current Cond...
