  1. Yeah, just really jumped all over the place. Showed the range of outcomes which was helpful I think.
  2. 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)
  3. 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
  4. Yeah, probably just a light glaze once we get into the dry slot
  5. What a sounding. Classic sleet storm in the Triad. Going to take ages to melt this glacier
  6. A bit of a dry slot for western NC. Somewhat expected given the eastward progression of the low, but a rather stark cutoff
  7. It's crazy how big some of the pellets are too. Nearly pea sized
  8. As expected, p-type maps are not to be trusted. The majority of the freezing rain zone is falling as sleet
  9. Wow, that's the most bullish I've ever seen them at this range
  10. Yeah...it seems kgso hasn't been reporting sleet. It's like their ip key is broken or something, lol
  11. 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
  12. Definitely seems to be trending towards more sleet
  13. Hard to believe it will flip to sleet in a couple hours after the dewpoint dropped to 8 before onset
  14. 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
  15. 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
  16. 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
  17. The air that eventually will be bleeding down into NC is pretty stout:
  18. Storm summed up in one sounding. If this ain't sleet, it sure is close
  19. Still a nice front end thump on the HRRR, FWIW for central NC
  20. A lot of that qpf falls as sleet, so Greensboro might be 2" (.2 qpf) of snow followed by 2" sleet (.6 qpf) followed by .16 zr (.3 qpf-accounting for run-off). But snow/sleet depth after compaction would only be around 3"
  21. Good rates. One can dream the long range HRRR had any validity
