634 FXUS61 KRNK 110646 AFDRNK Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Blacksburg VA 146 AM EST Wed Nov 11 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... Aviation updated. Increasing confidence in a cold snap beginning Thursday. Wind chills drop below 15F Friday and Saturday nights in the mountains. && .KEY MESSAGES... 1) Rain returns Thursday, with a transition to upslope snow showers for the mountains Friday. Colder and windy conditions develop and last through the weekend. && .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1: Rain returns Thursday, with a transition to upslope snow showers for the mountains Friday. Colder and windy conditions develop and last through the weekend. As a closed low takes a southern then easterly trajectory into the Mid Atlantic towards the weekend, reinforcing cold air waves will push temperatures down into the 30s and 40s for highs Friday and Saturday for the mountains, while the Piedmont drops into the 50s for highs. Looking at NAEFS temperature anomalies, beginning Thursday afternoon through next Wednesday, 850mb temperatures will be 1 to 2 standard deviations below normal in the area. Overnight lows will fall into the 20s and 30s for lows by Thursday night in the mountains, with strong cold air advecting into the Piedmont by Friday night into early next week. There will be several nights of hard killing freezes beginning Friday morning, with even the Piedmont dropping into the upper 20s to low 30s. The other concern will be strong and gusty westerly and then NW winds which will begin Thursday and continue into the weekend. Gusts between 30 to 40 mph will be possible for the mountain ridges and higher elevations. Very cold wind chills develop, and will be worst Friday and Saturday nights, where parts of the mountains will drop into the 12-20F degree range for the "feels like" temperature. While it will be very unpleasant and a shock to the system, we will be several degrees too warm for any Cold Weather advisories. Temperatures rebound some early next week. Light rain and eventually snow arrives in the mountains Thursday through Saturday night. Today looks like the last warm day in the freezable future. Spokes of upper level energy moving around an upper low will help trigger surface cyclogenesisover the OH and TN Valleys and steer a surface system into the southern and central Appalachians Thursday. This will trigger light rain showers over the mountains and possibly into the Piedmont. Precipitation will be very light and mix with and eventually change over to light snow as we transition into a NW upslope event Thursday night continuing into Saturday morning, mainly impacting the Greenbrier Valley. Amounts will be low each day and it will be difficult for the snow to stick to the warmer ground initially. But as the event continues we could see some light accumulations. High pressure pushes into the region by Sunday, and the remainder of the weekend will be dry, but cold. && .AVIATION /06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... VFR conditions are expected at all TAF sites through about 12/10Z, when MVFR or lower ceilings begin to creep into the mountains as well as rain showers. Relatively light west winds become west/northwest winds tomorrow night. Winds will generally remain light at around 5 knots, with gusts up to 5-12 knots through the afternoon and evening hours. After 12/09Z, expect gusts to 25 knots in the mountains from the NW. Some morning fog is possible briefly this morning for KLWB, but confidence is not very high, so have opted to leave as a TEMPO for now. EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK... Light rain showers may mix with snow mainly for BLF/LWB tomorrow night into Friday. Accumulations will be nil initially. Gusty northwesterly winds will reach 20 to 30 knots Thursday through Saturday. MVFR or lower conditions are possible Thursday through at least Friday across the mountains, mainly for KBLF and KLWB, with persistent low clouds. && .RNK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... VA...None. NC...None. WV...None. && $$ DISCUSSION...SH AVIATION...SH

Mountain & avalanche safety

Know before you go
Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any off-piste / side-country / backcountry travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
Carry the gear, know how to use it
Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
Mind the weather window
Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry, even if the resort itself is open.
Respect closed terrain
Ropes are there for a reason. Even in-bounds, ducking a closure can trigger a slide that catches you and others below.

Track Bryce Resort in the Snoflo app

Save this resort as a favorite, set push alerts when snowfall crosses a threshold (e.g. "alert me when Bryce Resort reports 6″ new"), and Snoflo's iOS app will push the moment the SNOTEL station crosses.

FAQ

About Bryce Resort

Where does the snow data for Bryce Resort come from?

Snowpack, SWE, 24-hour snowfall, and air temperature come from the nearest USDA NRCS SNOTEL station. Forecast comes from the National Weather Service / yr.no feed that Snoflo's iOS app uses.

How often is the snow report updated?

Snowpack and SNOTEL data are updated continuously by NRCS (typically hourly). The 15-day weather forecast is refreshed throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- look for the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero.

What's the elevation at Bryce Resort?

See the Resort Metrics panel above for base / summit / vertical drop. The summit elevation drives snowpack accumulation -- higher summits hold snow longer through spring.

How is "% of normal" calculated?

Today's snowpack is compared to the average snowpack on this calendar day across every recorded year at the nearest SNOTEL. 100% means right on average; 130% is a big year; 60% is thin.

What ski resorts are near Bryce Resort?

See the Other Ski Areas pill grid at the bottom of the page for resorts within driving distance. The sister Other Ski Areas card in the Plan-a-longer-trip grid above shows the closest few.

Can I get alerts when fresh snow hits?

Yes -- snow alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this resort, set a snowfall threshold (e.g. "alert me when 6+ inches"), and you'll get a push the moment the SNOTEL crosses.
