Forecast 

Wednesday: High mid 60’s. With low temperature in the low 50’s.  Nice day to end month. 


Fall Leaves: 

Color starting to show up in elevation due to cool nights and average to some below average high temperatures in the afternoon.  Also time of the year when abscission process starts to occur. Basically shortened daylight hours causes reduction in chlorophyll causes this. Now for leaves changing color time frame.  Right now a variety of trees showing some color but in next week or two look for Maple trees to rapidly change colors. Mid September in the high country especially. We still will have warm to average highs but this process of leaves changing has already started in the high country so we need to keep fingers crossed that heavy rain and wind will stay away til peak season for fall colors is over . ( no tropical systems allowed in the mountains) Great follow for timing for peak color is FoliageReport. Always feel free to attach me to social media post with any weather related content. Always love seeing everyone pictures and videos.

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​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...
