calculus1 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Very fine mist has been falling for the last hour or so here in Hickory. It's been a dreary day with a low cloud deck all day. I don't think I'll see the sun for another few days, but that's okay. Bring on the real rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gastonwxman Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Quite a wet and cloudy day it has been. The fog that's currently outside is rather thick to the point where I can't clearly see either end of the road that I live on. Doesn't feel as cool as you would think (54) after reaching 59 for a high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lives up Sugar #2 rd for those that know Avery county. I remember this pic and you visiting during that event. I ended up with a little over 24. The duration of that storm is what was awesome. I like for it snow for days more than a 12 hour dumpage. Great storm for being so early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POWERSTROKE Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Thank you for adding that!!

FoothillsNC Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 the NAM has a pretty good period of snow across the mid south, like the last storm. Western Tn and northern Miss and nrn Alabama then across much of TN as the system rolls east. The system then picks up speed quickly . Even if its not much accum. this will make twice that significant snow fell between LIT MEM HSV before Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
november rain Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Don't mean to sidetrack the discussion and it's a day late, but caught a nice pic of gravity waves yesterday morning in Columbia, SC (around 9:30 AM). I've seen those but had no idea what name to give them so now I know...Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isopycnic Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 I guess this is what I'm confused on. The setup looks almost identical to DFW today. You have just about the same 850 temps with the same SFC temps and they are expecting a mix with snow to the west. Why based on the Euro would we not get a mix in WNC? I know DFW is flat and doesn't have the mountains doing their thing....but with what looks to be the same temp profile what is the big difference? 2m dewpoints on the Euro are at around 32 - 40 with 850s sub freezing (GSO west)...with the qpf there wouldn't it be cold enough for at the least a mix since you would get some dynamic cooling?

Met1985 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Umm..... Not sure if anyone has been keeping an eye on the plunging temperatures in Alabama... BUT! Montgomery just dropped 12 degrees in an HOUR! Wow 12 degrees in 1 hours that's pretty significant. I have stayed pretty steady with a temp of 56 and steady rain all morning. probably got about an inch of rain so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherNC Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 PGV checking in with 68/57 as of the 11 o'clock hour under PC skies... Forecasted high of 75, unsure if we will get to that as clouds are starting to thicken again, but it sure does not feel like early Dec outside, that's for sure! Took a little hike outback this morning, through what my neighbors refer to as the swamp, however, I prefer wetlands. The water table is definitely up, more so than last year at this time, and comparable to April of this year after a somewhat wet winter/early spring. I have a couple flowing fingers outback that connect to the main creek. These are only seen during heavy 2-3"+ type thunderstorms, TCs obviously, and extended periods with above avg RN. GFS pegging just under 1/2" with this system, NAM less than half that, RN gauge is set, interested to see which one verifies. After this, thinking we may get into an extended period, around 7 days, with temps close to the seasonal avg, maybe even a degree or two below, which should put Dec for the month thus far, slightly below here. Unsure after that, week prior to Christmas is looking rather mild, and the mojo as well as favored teleconnections are not looking good as we role into the second half of Dec; period around 12/18 does have some interest though.

Any howling down here will be those desert winds blowing the sand around T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgertime Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 GFS keeps the rain train rolling with system after system.

SN_Lover Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Wow, it felt like a early summer morning when I just waked out. I would honestly not mind this if it stayed like this all winter.
