No one has whines as hard as you on these boards. You will get snow. It may not be as much as some models had but the triangle is going to get over an inch to several inches which is a win anytime.

Ready to cash out with that one

Here is hoping Charlotte can score decently with this setup with atleast a few inches

Getting some insane winds keeping me up. Easily gusts over 50mph with white out conditions which is very loud blowing all the snow around. Waiting for a tree to come down

Black Mountain a little higher up has been getting quarter sized flakes for well over an hour now. No evidence of the few times I have been outside as it all had been covered. completely dumping right now

In Black Mountain it’s been dumping quarter sized flakes for well over an hour now

Got some flurries in Black Mountain but temps are still much to high in the mid 30s

Staying at a cabin over 5000’ tonight.

Lights out for those with ice

Still about 12-13 hours to real go time but it’s getting there.

The Charlotte area is going to be hit really bad by ice. There could be a few hundred thousand without power if it verifies. Most of the older neighborhoods of the city close to the urban core are extremely tree filled and it won’t take many of them to cause a large disruption for days. im going to ride this one out in Black Mountain near Asheville where I can enjoy a all essentially all snow event and not deal with ice and power loss.

Riding this one out in Black Mountain. Feeling good that it will be atleast a foot when it is all said and done! NWS is saying 10-17.

mind posting CLT? Thanks!

If that holds up that looks catastrophic to Charlotte

I am only a few minutes from Uptown Charlotte and absolutely surrounded by trees--my neighborhood has huge oaks surrounding every house with atleast 20+ trees within falling distance of my house. Powerlines run directly behind houses near trees, I am expecting a devastating ice storm with at the very least lost power for a few days. About to book a cabin in the high country near Boone and atleast enjoy some good snow.

Not sure what I missed but the overnight models must have been disastrous for anyone not in the mountains or close to them.

Really disappointing map for Charlotte. An inch of snow and then atleast a quarter inch up to a half inch of ice? Suddenly the same map when viewed for High end chance for a 1 in 10 chance of 1.5 inch. Yikes. GSP is suddenly very bearish.

With the potential of the warm-nose and mixed-precip, every bit helps! Would be great to get snow on the front end and back end.

Brad Panovich's call maps

This hasn’t really been a RDU storm for days

I know we will get some snow in Charlotte but sure looks like alot of sleet, freezing, rain, and ice will mix in with it. Then when those backside winds hit it will be lights out.

Bad run for the Charlotte area with all that ZR

WInston-Salem is part of the Piedmont Triad (Greensboro-High Point-Winston Salem) and very much still central NC. Charlotte is not really WNC--its more of a south central NC. When I think of Western NC I think Anything including Hickory to the west (Asheville) and mainly the mountains. No one here in Charlotte thinks we are in western NC.
