  1. Looks like another loss for the Triangle. It isn't looking good for this year that is for sure.
  2. I am having trouble with weatherbell for the moment. Can't get into the models.
  3. 12Z GFS is colder for sure with a lot less ZR. Saves us from complete cliff jump.
  4. Yeah this would be the final death blow on the season for those in the Triangle. On to the 12z GFS.
  5. They may cancel the watches here after the 12z suite lol.
  6. It is definitely a sinking feeling in the Triangle at this point with these trends. I may have to chase northeast.
  7. I'll take that call any day of the week LOL. Anyway he is definitely a bit more west with higher totals than I would have thought but not impossible.
  8. It would seem so but I think there is a limit on how far they can go out on these.
  9. If anything the 18z GFS pushed the ZR a bit farther southeast and the main round of snow is in a much shorter period.
  10. I feel like the models are struggling with these waves but the key is we stand in good shape to see at least a little something. As far as Raleigh I am thinking the low end is 1-3 inches but can't rule out more of a 4-8 event without question. Certainly I think we will see some pingers in there too.
  11. The 850's do crash and temps are well down into the 20's and some upper teens. That would suggest better ratios as the event progresses.
  12. Verbatim that would be a bulletproof 4-8 for the Raleigh area.
  13. 12z GFS Is a good run for Raleigh that is for sure. A nice 4-6 event. the ice is still worrysome of course but where that front hangs up is going to make all the difference.
  14. One thing is it's very important to keep in mind a purely snow event in the triangle is extremely rare. Even Jan 2000 started as a good amount of rain before changing over to snow. We had 20 inches out of that when I was in Southern Pines after hours of cold rain. If we get a bit of snow and a little sleet, the sleet will make any snowpack hang around quite a bit longer. Of course for photos I need it to be in the trees too. I only wish I was a photog in 2000 and had drone tech then.
  15. Honestly I would take the 2-4" verbatim from the GFS at 6z and call it a day. Hopefully the amounts go up but we shall see. Overall it is still getting a handle on the suppression factor.
  16. Yeah 18z definitely suppressed but I figured the NW edge would have been a bit farther north. The culprit is very dry mid levels looking at the 850 RH. This is for the 2nd wave. That sure is a sharp cutoff:
