    I’m still confused where all the precip is coming from… radar looks weak

    ZR in Raleigh. Some IP mixing. So much for sleet saving us, glaze on everything. QPF only limiting factor now
  3. NorthHillsWx
    Raleigh- nothing
  4. NorthHillsWx
    We must’ve completely lost our blocking. This thing just wants to ride north
  5. NorthHillsWx
    They change anything?

    Cold isn’t the main question, it’s whether there’s enough precip to cause big issues

    Yea, I’m going with RAH but them cutting totals in half from 7 am to 4 pm didn’t exude the notion they have much confidence in what they’re putting out. Nor is the the high end of almost tripling their predicted total. Pretty much their graphics say you could have anywhere between 0.20” and 0.85” of ice, a winter weather advisory or the worst Ice storm in your history. I mean I could get paid to make those call maps

    I am speaking for the Carolina’s and Georgia. Y’all are confirmed and guaranteed to be under the firehouse we thought we were going to be under. Virginia is going to be a glacier come Monday

    No one *knows* what this is going to do. It seemed LOCKED IN for a major ice storm. Now, we’ve got Mets doubling down, Mets refusing to make a call till go time, Mets cutting totals in half, Mets flip flopping with each model run, Mets calling out other Mets? weather apps spitting out 8” of snow, people wondering if their power will be out for days or if theyll be at work Monday. I mean this is absurd.

    In all the storms we’ve tracked here this is my least favorite and it’s not even close

    NAM is honestly a nuisance event in Raleigh. 0.30” of mixed QPF then the rest is plain old rain. WTF are we getting an ice storm or insignificant slop?
  12. NorthHillsWx
    Hopefully they’re right, 0.30” though still impactful is nowhere close to what happens when you approach 0.50” I guess that’s why they waited to pull the trigger on the warning
  13. NorthHillsWx
    Yea, that was a pretty drastic step back. Haven’t seen much that supported the original amounts recently but they went below most everything I’ve seen come out
  14. NorthHillsWx
    RAH really cut ice totals back for Raleigh. 0.36” forecast, nearly cut in half from earlier. Anyone know what their thinking is on that? Less QPF and warmer? Seems like a huge step back but thankfully impacts would be significantly better
  15. NorthHillsWx
    It already has busted thermals bc of a GLL it’s gonna rain

    RAP is hours of light ZR. That is how you add up accrual

    Looking closer at the 12z CAMs even though a lot of moisture was going north, you can see the showers that develop in the dry slot and I think that’s what some here have been picking up on- if you’re in the wedge even though you might get the dry slot it likely doesn’t stop precipitating. Happens all the time with warm season wedges, supposed to be 70 but stuck at 50 and drizzle, light rain. Not convinced the moisture goes north of us but if it does it doesn’t mean it stops the precip

    Everyone’s burnt out. Storm that was supposed to start tonight is waiting till Sunday lol
  19. NorthHillsWx
    On my way to the new storm thread
  20. NorthHillsWx
    ICON is a massive hit across the board
  21. NorthHillsWx
    I’ve been in this boat since yesterday. The trend to lower QPF has been clear and the dry slot is a distinct possibility. Would be in line with how the rest of the year has played out
  22. NorthHillsWx
    Wonder is RAH is waiting to make sure there will be enough moisture to hit warning criteria east of current warning area?
  23. NorthHillsWx
    Here’s how it helps us- the front end thump is roughly 0.30” in Raleigh. As depicted, that is all sleet. So if we only get 0.30-0.40” the rest of the event assuming runoff and maybe plain rain at the end there just isn’t enough QPF for the high end ice totals we were talking about 0.50”+
  24. NorthHillsWx
    Huffman brought down his ice forecast. Cited less QPF and more sleet. Said further tweaks down may be needed and that areas might avoid a repeat of 2002
  25. NorthHillsWx
    We will see, repercussions are massive
