frazdaddy Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Drove in from Wake Forest to Apex/Cary. No issues at all. Some lightly covered roads in the neihborhood but no traction issues. Traffic on the beltline at 70mph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreensboroWx Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Side roads in NW Guilford Co were icy, but major roads fine.....It was amazing seeing the cutoff of snow from ~1/2-3/4" IMBY to absolutely nothing in Winston-Salem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disc Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 14.5* and icy this morning. 22 for this high, so it won't be going anywhere fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherNC Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Going into work a little late with the hope traffic dies down, and someone treated the roads. Once I get in 264 should be smooth sailing, but the road in front of the house is icy. Still some flurry action going on, RWI reporting -SN at the moment go figure. End up with about 1.5".

downeastnc Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Its snowing at the plant decent size flakes but nothing more than a flurry, roads were ok salted heavily so they are wet with a temp of 20, hopefully they dry before they freeze. Secondary roads prety rough..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven_1974 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Just a shame that this outcome only fuels folks like Widre to be even worse come next storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 No problem on the roads for me. I have seen folks on facebook saying the roads in their neighborhoods in Durham and Granville counties are sheets of ice, though. Hope next time we can get storm big enough to keep the kids home from school and me home from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WidreMann Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Just a shame that this outcome only fuels folks like Widre to be even worse come next storm.The last N storms we've had here, basically all since Christmas 2010, have been non-events in one way or another, and the non-event-ness has been centered, as usual, on Durham, or wherever I happen to be living at the time.

VeronicaCorningstone Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Still -SN here in Wilson. I think (haven't gone outside to do an accurate measurement) we ended up with a little over 2 inches here near downtown. It's been snowing steadily since about 7 a.m. but no real additional accumulation. Beautiful, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCStateMMY Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The band over Nash, Wilson, Greene and Wayne looks like it is showing some brighter returen on the radar in that last hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 via: US National Weather Service Raleigh NC Lake Effect Snow in Eastern NC!An area of snow well removed from the storm system off the coast has developed during the past couple of hours across the Coastal Plain of NC. This area of snow originates over Kerr Lake and is being driven by an upper level disturbance, low level instability enhanced locally by the lake and additional moisture provided by the lake. At 900 AM snow is being reported down stream in Rocky Mount, Goldsboro, Kinston and other locations. The local enhancement could produce a half inch of snow accumulation with localized spots getting up to an inch. The snow should taper off toward midday as the upper level disturbance moves away and the low level instability decreases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLweather Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Is Kerr Lake a hydro power plant or does it have a coal fire plant attach to it? "Vis loop shows it well also shows where the snow is." Look at the streamer running over the Raleigh area... that is probably getting moisture picked up from Mayo Lake. It looks cloudy over towards that area. I know its not from Hyco Lake.

FLweather Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hydro as far as I know. Ok thanks. Thats even more strange. I figured it was a coal fire with a water cooling system releasing a bunch of steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCStateMMY Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Ok thanks. Thats even more strange. I figured it was a coal fire with a water cooling system releasing a bunch of steam. Judging by the wind direction, orientation of the lake, and the disturbane moving through, looks like the wind has a enough fetch across the lake with enough instability in the air to create a band. Righ place, right time scenario. I live near KRWI and work in RTP. It was light snow when I left at 8 AM. Once I was past the Nash/Franklin line in US 64, it was clear. Called my dad and he said it had picked up a little, but it was still light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 While not one of the biggest snows ever lol this one is pretty memorable if for anything other than I went from 61 to accumulating snow in 6-7 hrs lol..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
