INCOMING SNOW

Well, worth a new post as we assess the snow coming in.  It's a NW upslope flow event, and the current forecast has been 2-4"....not enough changes one way or the other to change all of that.  Close by the Plott Balsams and the Smokies is 6-7" but I'll leave ACA in the 2-4" category, low to high in elevation.

Overnight tonight there will be a switchover to snow, without a time period of no precipitation to be void of precipitation for sublimation, so I expect an icy belly to the snow that collects before sunrise, and beyond.  Travel could be very tricky early in ACA, but plowing and salting is slated to take place in early afternoon, to the best of my knowledge. Personally, I have to get off the mountain Wednesday, so I have a vested interest in all of this as do many of you, be it incoming or outgoing traffic concerns in ACA.

By Thursday, sun is out and chilly, but calm weather will be in place.  Happy Turkey Day, y'all, and Happy first full day of Hannukah, also on Thursday.
