  1. Looks like it's developing something in the gulf for the weekend though
  2. Yeah, a big advantage to these type of setups is it's pretty easy to score a light to moderate snow event. A big hit, however is a bit more of a thread the needle scenerio. If a lp system develops along the boundary and deepens, it can bring in warm mid level air and cause mixing issues along the southern fringes. There is a fairly narrow jackpot zone, and the northern fringe struggles with dry air, but gets nice cold powder
  3. Yeah, just really jumped all over the place. Showed the range of outcomes which was helpful I think.
  4. The icon looks good for a long duration moderate event for the climo favored regions of the central NC Piedmont (the Icon is trash I know, but better than discussing, well... not weather)
  5. Considering how the GFS ensembles have a tendency not to vary too much from the op, it's encouraging to see a bunch of members with decent hits
  6. Yeah, probably just a light glaze once we get into the dry slot
  7. What a sounding. Classic sleet storm in the Triad. Going to take ages to melt this glacier
  8. A bit of a dry slot for western NC. Somewhat expected given the eastward progression of the low, but a rather stark cutoff
  9. It's crazy how big some of the pellets are too. Nearly pea sized
  10. As expected, p-type maps are not to be trusted. The majority of the freezing rain zone is falling as sleet
  11. Wow, that's the most bullish I've ever seen them at this range
  12. Yeah...it seems kgso hasn't been reporting sleet. It's like their ip key is broken or something, lol
  13. I appreciate your insight. Definitely just kidding around here. Hard to get excited about something 6 days away when it's currently snowing outside, but wow, who thought we'd get such a stellar pattern out of this winter
  14. Definitely seems to be trending towards more sleet
  15. Hard to believe it will flip to sleet in a couple hours after the dewpoint dropped to 8 before onset
  16. Yeah, we've seen this play out on the models. A shift to the south initially has sometimes resulted in a more inland track. Just depends on how our pesky vortex to the North behaves
  17. If I were a betting man, I'd bet on higher sleet totals and lower qpf, leading to only .1-.2" acreation in the triad
  18. Hate to see the depth of the wedge become shallower, I think as the storm track has trended somewhat more inland. I'm starting to doubt that many will see more sleet than ZR, but it's kinda a coin flip at this point
  19. The air that eventually will be bleeding down into NC is pretty stout:
