snowblzchance in CLT Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 flakes are finally starting to fall here in Matthews (East CLT). Temp still @ 33. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stovepipe Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Friggin firetruck turned over in Roane county TN according to local news. Ice seems to be nasty across all of east TN. One would think it would mostly be gone by morning rush hour based on the warm front moving across the state on radar. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormsfury Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 That is flipping amazing!!! Congrats SF between 11:00 pm last night to current, this makes FOUR calendar days this month that a trace of frozen precip has fallen this month (and none compares to Feb 12th of this year lol). Amazing last December didn't hit our first freeze until the very end of the month, and this month, seems like just about every day has been below freezing. Eyewall - "Awesome Stormsfury! That is great all the way down there. If I am going to bust here I wouldn't mind as much if the precip falls early." Got a chance to speak with John at KCHS tonight for about 20 minutes and we were talking about Feb 12th of this year and also what's going on here. actually rather amazing about of forcing and ascent with the s/w swinging thru GA into the Carolinas now but the low levels again have really been eating up the light precip except for some of the heavier echoes and bright bands, but unlike the prior 2 events this month, the air is saturating with stronger forcing. too bad at least down here the cold air isn't going to stay locked.

Gastonwxman Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Road conditions are deteriorating quickly here. I would not dare drive on any untreated roads if I were you. Nearly slipped myself just for putting my foot on it. Now dropped to 30 with sleet falling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you sleep during a possible winter weather event? No matter how small...lol I already knew I would not fall asleep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 How can you sleep during a possible winter weather event? No matter how small...lol I already knew I would not fall asleep! Generally I don't. But I have a 10 AM Final Exam tomorrow! It's just meteorology and I have an A in the class and the exam shouldn't be too difficult, though, so if I am to pull an all-nighter and screw up my sleep schedule, this is the class to do it for.

Stormsfury Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 What temp are you at storm? I've risen to 34º, but TD's are still in the mid 20's. light rain, with bouts of sleet and snow continue to mix in with heavier returns due to wet bulbing and evaporational cooling processes aloft. A nice bonus tonight, I saw the potential for some sleet (and the soundings supported it) but the snow flurries and light snow mixing in was a complete surprise to me tonight.

HKY18 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 heavy sleet here in lenoir right now i guess its all ice no snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowblzchance in CLT Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Light snow has changed over to sleet / ZR. Road and sidewalks have quickly become covered. It's not very often that I've seen such sparse rates accumulate on these surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 It's 30, overcast, but nothing falling just yet. I'm older than I used to be and I need to get some rest. If I wake up in the middle of the night, I'm might drop in. Meanwhile, the Honda generator is full of gas and ready to go if necessary. We'll see what happens by commute time.
