gritsnc Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Nothing like a good rain on a snow day. Jumped 8 degrees coming back from stuart to kernersville. Sun peeking through the entire time. Congrats to any and all who get snow but i cant torture myself waiting for the inevitable nothingness. Not a winner this time! What in the world are you talking about? It was 49 and sunny when I left Robinhood Rd. Now it's 44 and cloudy in K-ville. I'm over by East Forsyth High School. What part of K-ville are you in?

NC_WX10 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Given what the models have been showing lately why hasn't Blacksburg put Rckingham County under a WWA yet? Counties to my north and south are under one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevDodd Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 FWIW, the NWS in ILM has placed much of Robeson and Bladen counties under a WWA. Project up to an inch accumulations in northern areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvegas-wx Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 What in the world are you talking about? It was 49 and sunny when I left Robinhood Rd. Now it's 44 and cloudy in K-ville. I'm over by East Forsyth High School. What part of K-ville are you in? You are correct. I was talking about jump from 37 to 45 on the ride back from stuart va. Much colder an hour north. We may get in on the action but downsloping is not our friend. The precip looks to crank up again either right over the triad or just to the east.

toxictwister00 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I just realized I posted this in the wrong thread, but about 10 minutes ago I saw some wet snowflakes falling. It's stopped since then. The temp was 44 at the time. Looks like the sun is coming back out again now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Same thing was said about that band last year that got me. I believe temps hit 50 and as soon as the band came through blamo we had snow sticking to the ground. Going to go from low 60's to upper teens in 12-18hrs alone is pretty cool add the chance of a few inches of snow and its down right awesome, and if the models keep it up it might even be more like 3-4" I just hope they have a handle on it somewhat. Yeah, you guys are right. It's just not a common thing to go from near 60 to snow in 4 hours. That's a heckuva drop. Latest HRRR says that the Triad south and east should be in for some fun and games. It keeps inching further South and West each run, but it's not going to make it back to Charlotte I don't think. Maybe there will be some flakes in the air for all Definitely liking the trends here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 MHX has upped us to 1-2" in the point and click this is a up from less than half a inch guess they believe the trends but it seems they think it will all fall in 2 hrs lol.....I forget what the WSW criteria here is but 3" in less than 6 hrs might be enough to do it. Rain and snow likely before 11pm, then a chance of snow between 11pm and 1am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 18. North wind 15 to 17 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm not sure WRAL's timing is going to work out so well. The timing on most winter events is terrible around here, its always starts either early or late and always ends earlier or later than forecast......yesterday they had us changing over to snow around 4 pm or basically right now. I bet its still snowing along the coastal areas at dawn tomorrow hell maybe even here. I suppose since this thing seems to be digging further SW than modeled yesterday that everything is going to happen later and really that helps snow totals I think since most of us wil lsee our snow overnight.
