Remember only one model is really showing that problem. HRRR doesn't look bad at all.
PLUS, this only affects initial moisture transport for the front end thump... Once the low spins up off the coast, moisture will easily feed back west.
The convection would only impact moisture on the front end for foothills. Once the low spins up off the coast that’s when central nc gets most precipitation anyway .
Man, we really are back. I haven’t heard the convection robbing moisture argument in over four years. It does also depend on the orientation of the convection. .
Messaging during winter storms is so so difficult. Everyone I talk to here in Wake is latching on to "snow snow snow." There will be a lot of people tomorrow calling this a huge bust, even though scenarios and worst/best case scenarios have been explained ad nauseum.
