  1. Good luck getting that! I knew we were sunk when I woke up at 3am and the temps were still around 37 and the radar was anemic. I'll take my rate driven dusting this afternoon and join you in February.
  2. This is so pathetic I'm not even going to bother sending the drone up. A few flakes in Kernersville but the radar trends say its going to shut down for a couple of hours, at least. The only thing that got my attention was the quick drop in temps over the last couple of hours once the solid returns moved in. Down to 34 pretty quickly.
  3. Some sort of graupel like material falling in Kernersville and Walkertown.
  4. Light snow in Stuart VA now. More than flurries. 35.5°
  5. Spitting just a few flakes in Stuart Va at the farm. Otherwise squat there and squat here in Kvegas. Happy to see a few folks outside the mountains woke up to at least a dusting!
  6. Temps being stubborn, radar looks horrible, thinking this may turn out to be a daylight event. Peace out until 6am.
  7. Lol, dont get me started. How about that dry slot, AKA Georgia, that needs to fill in. Hoping the radar looks solid around daybreak.
  8. Finally got down to 37° after being stuck at almost 40° for a couple hours. Now I feel like we're headed in the right direction. Precip will move into the Triad by 1am. Lets go!
  9. Mack moved to Iowa. He still posts in that forum. Wouldnt surprise me to see him pop in tomorrow if it snows in SC.
  10. Imperfect model guidance = irrational exhuberance. Real time obs = crushed souls
  11. Yeah, my expectations have been reduced to a mulch covering.
  12. This first wave is gonna flip to all snow as it crosses the Va border tonight. Maybe @Buddy1987 @BornAgain13you have some early wins to look forward to.
  13. Ugh, I just warmed up a degree in Kernersville. The cold air is parked up at the farm in Stuart about 30 miles north. 34.8° there at 1,400' elevation.
  14. Gonna be liquid not frozen. Not good trends.
  15. Kernersville....center of the Triad.
  16. Why does it seem like this first wave is multiple hours ahead of schedule? My forecast, and RAH, is saying snow well into the afternoon tomorrow. Thats a loooong event if the precip shield fills in.
  17. Where are all the snow reports from the mountains? Radar lighting up everywhere out west! Nevermind...I see all those altitude afflicted folks are too good to come over here and post in the obs thread. They have their own little special drinks and probably even a secret handshake for get togethers. 39.9 in the heart of the Triad. 36 on the farm in Stuart. Progress!
  18. Wow Grit, "optimist" is not your middle name! Taking the under for the Vegas odds today huh?
  19. Enjoyed watching some whacko on the live cam taking an evening jog through the snow up there! Can't wait. Let's do this Katherine!
  20. For you north of Danville, yes. But in the central piedmont and as you move down towards CLT no. Even the last guidance from RAH is calling for wet snow with surface temps just above freezing.
  21. Without a better cold air source, I'd go 5:1. Chop QPF in half almost everywhere outside the mountains.
  22. It has a name........Carolina Crusher. Snuck in like a thief in the night.
  23. Oddly enough, if you take DT's call map and slide it 50-75 miles southwest like I said earlier you end up with what looks like the RAP forecast here. I can easily see this being our outcome.
  24. Sounds to me like you've been reading that special weather book written by some crusty old lifetime North Carolinian called "33 and rain: A story of my life and North Carolina Winter Weather". Most of us have that book on the shelf in these parts and drag it out at least once each year.
