We were driving back from IL last night and between Knoxville, TN and Asheville it was snowing! I haven't smelled it yet here but I have been inside all day or maybe my sniffer is just delayed! There is no mistaking that snow smell!!  |

Hey Chi...I couldnt agree more. It certainly DOES smell like snow...and "feels" like it too. Having grown up in northern IN, I can feel it the day before. Something to do with the way the air feels and smells.
Just back from the grocery store, I am happy to report that it was not more crowded than normal...but that will probably change later today when word gets out about our "approaching blizzard"

I will believe it when I see it. Weather forecasting is notoriously bad in the Charlotte area.

I love the smell of snow!!!
We use to have partys where who needed a cooler, just shove your bottle in the snow on the backyard deck. Instant chilled beverages |

Weather upgraded to "Winter Storm Warning"
It's looking more and more likely we'll get something tomorrow. The NWS upgraded the Metro area to a winter storm warning.
Mecklenburg NWS forecast
WSOC doesn't have it on their website yet, WCNC does. Warning goes into effect at 6pm
