December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
The FV3's track for the storm was spot on for a week out. Almost unheard of. It did not get the thermals exactly right but hey, for it to be that close at that range is great to see. I would give it a solid A -

Of course, if you already have snow on the ground. If you don't have a snow cover, it will be rate dependent. -

That line is not oriented in the right direction to rob us. Plenty of QPF coming. -

CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Yes it is.... I would not want to be a forecaster at the NWS in GSP today. So many possibilities to consider. -
December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Yep, just looking at soundings, it has temps just above freezing at the 700mb -825mb level last run it was right at 0C. Is it right? .... who knows at this point. -

CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Not going to buy into that run unless other models follow suit. We are getting to the time now when the higher resolution models will be taking center stage. -

CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
It has trended south from yesterday's runs, but still playing catch-up. Don't worry, by tonight the models will likely converge. -
December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
I was thinking that this would happen, when I saw the south trends last night. That increases our chances of staying all snow, but it reduces the totals. I'll take that in a heartbeat. -

It has done quite well in the past. -

CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Then I can't explain why it would show "sleet and snow" with that sounding. -
December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Nope, not the same. Snow requires saturation in the -12C through -17C layer. Sleet does not. -
December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Well, that's the only way you can get sleet with that sounding. -
December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
Because you don't have complete saturation in the dendric growth zone. -
December 8-10, 2018 Winter Storm
CAD_Wedge_NC replied to Orangeburgwx's topic in Southeastern States
I have to agree with you...... As we all can plainly see, a large part of this forum is going to be affected by this one. From over 50 years of watching the NC winter storms, I can tell you from past events that I-85 is the line of demarcation between mostly snow and mix a lot of the time. However, this is not always the case and with today's trends, I would not sleep on this one if I was in the upstate. I am not really focused on track as much as I am precip amounts. If I was in that freezing rain band, I would be really concerned. (Watch out NEGA) As GSP stated in their AFD. "once in a generation" -

The models possibility ingested some bad data at 0z. Let's see what the 12z suite has in store for us. -

Saturday Saturday: ... Rain and snow likely. The snow could be heavy at times. Cloudy, with a high near 38. Chance of precipitation is 60%.
