Brick Tamland Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Fwiw (mainly verification purposes), the 18Z GFS has brought the 4" line back south ~75 miles vs. the 12Z GFS. Now all of the sudden, many areas in/near the Triad/Triangle area as well as Roanoke Rapids are in the 3-5" range. It is too early to completely give up on something major for some folks. Keep hope and Brick alive! Important: The RDU 850 isn't (and hasn't been) progged to drop to 0Z until ~7 PM. We're going to need to get a lot more precip here then. It's not even raining now.

Jon Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 There is almost no relationship between my grlevel3 radar and that image. I don't know what you're looking at then. Try this link http://www.intellicast.com/Local/WxMap.aspx It looks exactly like my grlevel3 radar, besides ptype of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobr57 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Just some drizzle here in Chapel Hill at the moment. Where in CH are you chapelhillwx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 We're going to need to get a lot more precip here then. It's not even raining now. It is just a lull. I do think that the precip. coming over from the W Carolinas will solidify and give The Triangle eastward a decent dump after ~7 PM as the coastal deepens with the help of the second piece of energy.

burgertime Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Saw a report of sleet in Kings Mountain. Good sign, if we can get a switch over here before that heavy moisture pulls through that would be fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkman Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 It looks like the heaviest of this backside precip may pass south of the Triad proper unless that band can start strengthening quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapelhillwx Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Just some drizzle here in Chapel Hill at the moment. Where in CH are you chapelhillwx? About a half mile north of 40, if that. It has tapered back down since my post, but I live near Duke Forest. You? 33.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busick Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Flurries here now, but can see that big band to the southwest of Greensboro moving this way hopefully it will set up and drop a few inches of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherNC Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 It's not even raining here now. You're going to have a lull, most of the guidance picked up on it and current radar supports, the best banding potential will likely be approaching the triangle around 8. Watching the RAH radar and looking out the bedroom window off towards the west, very dark clouds associated with the precip that blossomed over the past hour between PGV and FAY heading north. Anyone in the triangle heading out to chase tonight, first and most importantly be safe! Second, Roanoke Rapids, somewhere in between RDU and there looks about as good a place as any given the short proximity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculus1 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Heavy snow for about 30 minutes now. Deck and grill are completely covered. Collecting on mulch and grass. I went out to the road and it has a slushy mix on it due to the heavy rates despite the recent warm temps! Woohoo!! Temp is down to 32.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazaroo Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I'm liking the band associated with the 850 low coming ene from Charlotte currently. It seems to be building somewhat and heading toward Central NC. Now if it can just continue to build and last for a while as temps are finally crashing. I will take anything. so far I have only seen a little sleet mixed in with the rain. Hopefully I'm not just having radar hallucinations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KO0588 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 live in rockingham county about 2 miles south of VA have 2 -> 2.5 inches of snow and its still coming, although not as heavy as it was, also been picking up some wind. The RUC along with other models show a lull approaching about now which it is, but showing some of the heaviest returns later in the evening . if that is the case with the sun going down now, the RUC has .6 - .8 of liquid still to come which will be in the form of snow. is that to be believed? it it overdone? That would put me at 8 - 9 total for the storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jalba Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 All in all, models have been right on with us turning over to snow. Its 5:30 some moderate snow coming down now. We were fighting on and off sleet/drizzle for so long, was hoping we'd switch earlier but doesnt really matter as we kept getting lulls in precip all afternoon. Looks like the actual deformation line is about to come into the mountains and head our way.. About time! Starting to come down faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
