Congrats Dsaur. Can you send it up north another 40 or 50 miles...?

ATL looks like the dry air is going to cave to snow any minute now based on radar

Radar and mping reports indicate that the “snow finger” modeled is verifying across the midlands of SC. This is good news for central NC as it is oriented to move into that region soon. This will help to saturate the column and as forcing increases this evening it should help maximize the snowfall as less will be burnt through evaporation 

NO might smoke NYC

New Orleans is reporting blizzard conditions right now lmao

New Orleans might re write the record books today. Getting absolutely smoked and that radar is incredible 

The “snow hole” on ATL radar is starting to shrink, implying we are seeing a more Rapid moistening of the atmosphere and getting closer to them seeing flakes

I'm right by Duke Raleigh, count me in

I’m super close to both. I am off six forks/millbrook behind the food lion 

RAH making tweaks to warnings. We’ll see if advisories expand westward

Wild. The radar is amazing for NO. 

Yep. It’s a firehose into NO

Here’s a ground report from Lafayette from my family:

6-8” already. Just had thundersnow! Cannot see houses across the street. 2 foot drifts around house. Pics look like full on blizzard. Wish I could post them. 
 

They have a lot of snow to come. Might crack 10”

Latest RAP

That’s a big uptick here.

Starting to think there will be an extremely sharp cutoff East of which will get 1"+ and ~30 miles west gets little or nothing. I'm guessing a long or a little east of 85

That’s a bingo! Agreed. You’ll go from flurries to 1” quick given how little moisture will be needed for 1”

12z GFS is WAYYYY west

What a cold winter. We’d forgotten what these were

Really think the triangle is in a great spot to break the 1” snow drought 

I think Wake county gets 1-2” tonight. Triad will be tricky with the edge but I think you go from no accumulation to 1” pretty quick then you have a large area of 1-2” before the coastal plain increase

21.2/6.3

The NAM drops .2-.3” QPF in the central piedmont of NC tonight. It was 0.05-0.10” last night. This will be a much bigger deal in a hurry if we get .2” QPF in these temps. I would not write off an over performer (2”) for piedmont areas given latest and continued NW trends

Ummm yea, about those models. WWA for us. Seems likely to keep expanding NW

This hobby takes a toll on your sanity 

FV3 and NAM gonna be good runs for central NC

Not going to lie, watching the Euro join the trend with everything else is giving me hope. This is the first time we’ve had consensus on a trend across suites. When the euro headfaked everyone a couple days ago everything else was going opposite direction.

One thing that seems locked in is New Orleans getting historic snowfall amounts. I have family in Lafayette and they are beyond excited. If we get snow it’ll make me much more happy to cheer for the gulf coast, lol

WRAL playing this down on the evening report

And the sky is still blue

So tonight, after having just the FV3 giving my area snow this morning, the GFS, EURO, ICON, NAM, and FV3 all have snow here. That’s a pretty significant cross model shift at least here. Keep in mind we’re not talking big amounts. At this point 1/2” seems like a win. I’m not expecting a big storm by any means. By 1” is certainly back on the table
