What is your best guess for western NC over the next 2 weeks

[Aimless]

With my finger poised over the "submit reservation" button for a quick ski trip in NC mountains in 10 days.... I am overwhelmed with a fear that this freezing rain will still be a factor. Any advice, guesses, warnings, ouija board readings, rock -sissors-paper results, or ( better yet) knowledgeable predictions of the snow conditions over the next 10 days?

And, it looks like much of the country will remain locked in frigid air past mid-month, as the February 12-18 forecast shows more of the same"

go ahead and get your bags packed...A significant upslope event looks likely for Ski Country in NC on Saturday. Then, maybe another shot at wintry weather middle of next week.
