Will NC get a snowy winter? Here's what one state forecast says

The question isn’t whether this year’s winter will have an El Niño pattern. It’s a matter of whether it will be the strongest on record. “The consequences for North Carolina are plentiful, with a pattern change in the cards that could ease our long-running drought, but that could also see more frequent flooding, erosion and coastal overwash ,” according to the North Carolina Climate Office’s winter outlook. A record El Niño puts North Carolina “in uncharted waters,” but it’s likely the state will see more rain and precipitation, with some of the past strongest El Niños producing some of North Carolina’s wettest winters. But that doesn’t necessarily mean snow. “For one, thanks to broader warming trends in our climate, consistently cool weather has been hard to come by in recent years,” according to the Climate Office’s outlook. “In fact, 13 of our past 15 winters have been warmer than the 20th-century average.” The State Climate Office is forecasting “overall above-normal temperatures” and “fewer wintry events and less snowfall.” Snow lovers in western North Carolina may have the best chances of “big snow events.” “From the Triad and Charlotte eastward, the chances of significant snow are lower , and wintry events

4-inches of snow, 50 mph gusts, 15-degree lows forecast in parts of NC mountains

The impact of a cold front on North Carolina’s higher elevations continues to worsen, with forecasters calling for more snow, lower temperatures and more powerful wind gusts. Forecasters initially expected “the season’s first snow” would be no more than an inch along the NC-Tennessee state line, but it’s now suspected up to 4 inches could fall in areas like northern Swain County. “If moisture ends up lingering longer over these areas, they can expect an uptick in snow amounts,” the National Weather Service says. The bigger concern will be the bitter cold and wind gusts starting Thursday night, forecasters say. Gusts of 40 to 50 mph are possible along ridge tops Friday and Saturday, resulting in very cold wind chills when “parts of the mountains will drop into the 12 to 20F degree range,” the NWS says. Temperatures could feel as low as 10 degrees west of Boone, making frostbite and hypothermia possible for those who venture out with exposed skin, forecasters say. “Highs from Friday through early next week are also expected to remain below normal for mid-November,” NWS forecasters say. The cold front will stretch from one end of the state to the other on Sunday, with lows
