strongwxnc Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Cool. Im just a fan of the underdog.....They fit that good Rain has moved out here. Left with high clouds and 41... I would guess so...BTW, I'm not a Royals fan even though I have them on my avatar. That is actually a pic of Greg Holland, a 2004 McDowell High graduate. He made the majors last season, first McDowell High player to ever make the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherheels Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Snow dropping like its hot outside. This is a heavier snow than at any point during Christmas. Something about larger flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nchighcountrywx Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Great thump of snow up in Avery County late morning. Wish I could have been up for it cross country skiing! Work has to come first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oconeexman Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 congrats to those seeing some PTS (Post Traumatic Snow)...at least the SE didn't get skunked. Hopefully next week will pan out but it looks like a lot of things have to swing in our favor for that to occur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gritsnc Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 On my way home from Winston to Kernersville, it snowed like a blizzard...for about 10 minutes. Now the sun is peeking through the clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gritsnc Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Same here. My office is just north of the 421/40 split. Edit: Just looked out and saw some flakes starting to mix in. Yeah, it really changed instantly. I wish is was still doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolBreeze Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Man, 10 miles south of Winston, and nothing but rain the whole time here. I wished I could've gotten in the car for a short field (snow) trip ! 37 and the clouds are lifting now... oh well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tullioz Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 The snow here North of Eden has been very heavy for the past 10 minutes or so. Too bad it's so warm here at the surface. Currently it is 34.4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Foothills Snowman Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Well here in Mt Airy we've had rain ,rain and more rain.Temps have not dropped but maybe a degree now at 37.They actually let school out at 10:30 in city and county.I know it better to be safe especially with our children but who knew this was ,or in this case, wasn't going to happen.It is dishearting to look up in Va and the NE and see all that blue.I'm happy for them but I do wish we could have cashed in on the snow first.

Dunkman Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Some big flakes mixed in around 2:20 in NW High Point in a heavier band, but we're back to drizzle now. Maybe that band to our NW can rotate through, although I'm not overly optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alleghany Co.---- After getting 1" in 15 mins. at 10:30 AM the snow has fallen at about the same rate all day but has gradually gotten much smaller flakes . Started as silver dollar size and now only 1/8 ". The picture attached was taken friday and shows a miles long "waterfall" of clouds lifting up from the foothills and pouring over the Blue Ridge escarpment into our valley .

WeatherNC Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Outstanding. Very cool pic. Yeah, great picture, thanks for sharing! Getting a little bit of wind here with the H5 low passing just to the nw and lp starting to lift north. The sun actually came out around 2:30pm with only a few passing thin clouds as the vortmax scoured out the moisture aloft. Now the dark cumulus has returned, and we have some wind, 20+ in gusts, nice! Made it up to 50 today , would have been shorts and t-shirt weather if it were not for the RN.
