    Finished with .86” of 32.5 degree rain. There were models showing a lee side min right before the start of the event. Unreal.

    *Only use models that show the least amount of frozen precipitation inside of 4 hours.

    Put a fork in this one for the foothills. Up to 32.9 and going between heavy and very heavy returns already over .4”

    32.4 and heavy rain is the ultimate middle finger. “But the models underestimate the cad” “it’ll be colder than forecasted” “just cut the zr maps in half and it’s still major”. Well it’s not the 90’s or early 2000’s anymore. We don’t win border line events in the foothills or NW Piedmont anymore. The ZR maps need a complete overhaul on all the models. The long term weather cycle for this area and winter weather is becoming an absolute joke.

    This is our lowest temp of the event.

    Nothing like heavy rain and 32.4 degrees. What a joke.

    So it seems really doesn’t matter at the end of the day when the skies are clear and you get radiational cooling to start the night when clouds just instantly add 5 degrees. Might as well had the clouds move in whenever. No? 38.5/26.2 Winds 3-5 MPH ENE

    Wow, up to 37.8/26.7 3 miles NE of HKY, this isn’t looking good for ice. I smell another major bust.
  9. AirNelson39
    Temp continues to rise, now 36.1/26 3 miles NE of HKY airport.
  10. AirNelson39
    Back up to 35.2/26.1 temps are on a kiddie roller coaster tonight lol
  11. AirNelson39
    That’s crazy! I’m in southern Caldwell east of 321 and I’m at 34.2/26.7
  12. AirNelson39
    Down to 35.2/25 WB: 31 Winds have been out of the WSW
  13. AirNelson39
    Was down to 36.5 in lower Caldwell around 7pm but have risen to 38.5/24 in the last 25 minutes
  14. AirNelson39
    Well we were dropping pretty well, were down to 36.5 but have risen nearly 2 degrees in the last 20 minutes.
  15. AirNelson39
    Temp is dropping decently in southern Caldwell but the dew points are making a noticeable incline.
  16. AirNelson39
    Very good looking map and reasonable map

    44 here in Hickory. Not feeling it for this area. 31.9 degree rain won’t cut it. The trend for this winter will continue for foothills.
  18. AirNelson39
    Must be nice, up to 41 here in southern Caldwell. Not too optimistic on this one. 31.5+ and rain won’t add up to much here. Hope I’m wrong and warmer trends are wrong. https://tempestwx.com/station/41819/grid
  19. AirNelson39
    Only got down to 25.9 here :/

    Just got a Tempest weather station here in southern Caldwell County. Excited to see the details with this borderline ice event tomorrow. Y’all can check it out here, https://tempestwx.com/station/41819/grid

    It was spot on with the placement of the heaviest precipitation but not so much the totals. I don’t put much faith into its ZR maps.
  22. AirNelson39
    Not surprised, like clockwork and has been the story the this entire winter. Everyone should be prepared for power outages because that would be too dangerous to go conservative with it being this close but personally I don’t see anything more than a nuisance event for the foothills. I do want the ice however.
  23. AirNelson39
    Yeah I don’t get people like that. Great term for them though lol!
  24. AirNelson39
    Have a generator but before I did I also enjoyed being without power for a few days, something about no power from weather events is exiting.
  25. AirNelson39
    I’d love to see .5 of freezing rain here in Hickory but I just don’t see it happening. All the models have over done every single winter event this season here. I see us getting a couple hours of 31 degree freezing rain then the rest of the storm 32-33 degree rain. I think we’ll be lucky to even see .1 in the Catawba, lower Caldwell, lower Burke, Alexander county areas. Looks to be a much better change along the border counties with temps around 30 much of the event. I think the trend of model accumulation/accrual maps over hyping storms in this area continues.
