SATURDAY UPDATE

Well, looks like it's all over but the shouting.  An occasional snow shower from the NW could blow through, but our accumulations are done.  I topped out right at 12" here at the end of Staymon, and numerous reports around the greater region range from10"-20" in the higher elevations.  Thankfully, minimal wind and icing let us keep power, and the plow is on it's way this afternoon.  If you didn't see the prior post, M&S Landscaping will be here to take care of our roads.  Should you wish them to take care of your driveway, please call MIKE directly at 828-734-2861 and get on the list.

Click HERE for a preliminary listing of snow totals in the GSP forecast area, listed by descending amounts. Almost 3 feet at Newfound Gap in the Smokies...ouch!

For a brief spell, the snow/clouds lifted to let me take a few quick shots N/NE from home (click to enlarge):





Highs should get a little above freezing Sunday, and more so Monday with nightly refreeze.  This snow has an icy bottom to it, so be cognizant of that as you start moving around.
