Starting today, January 15, 2026, I’m attempting to keep a record of all snowfall in Black Mountain, no matter how much or how little.
- 1/4/2026
- Consistent flurries for several hours in the morning, but nothing stuck.
- Very noticeable and beautiful through the big open windows in the sanctuary at church beyond the choir loft.
- 1/15/2026
- Tiny flurries this morning. Flakes were sort of bigger, but they could not form a group.
- 1/31/2026
- 4.5 inches overnight.
- Roads were too bad without AWD to make it to the golf course to sled with friends.
- We had a great time in the morning for about an hour and a half and then went back out in the afternoon and played for even longer.
- I went on a 30 minute run into town.
- Shepherd was very enthusiastic about being out in it – even shoveled some of the deck – which was progress for him.
- Extremely cold.
- 2/5, or 2/6 I can’t recall
- I forgot to make this record day-of and now I can’t recall the exact day.
- About a quarter inch, I’d guess, of snow fell early morning.
- I do remember it being very pretty.
