I think I-85 folks may want to pay attention here... could be a nice band of heavier precip near here.  0.75" qpf or more is definitely possible closer to CLT.

 

:blink:  Whatchoo talkin bout willis?

 

Where did you get that amount of precip Wow?  The highest I've seen for Meck county is from the SREF; maybe .4 or so. 

 

One of the things that enchanced the Feb 2004 storm was a secondary low development during the storm....like has been mentioned, maybe that's on the table....I'm such a weenie. :nerdsmiley:

It's the RAP and it's trends over the last few hours. CLT is around .4 right now and if it keeps trending we'll be in .6 in a few hours. Now can that be believed? I think it can given the overall setup but we won't know until it's on us.

Interesting, GFS just ticked NW.  RAH is lowering amounts everywhere due to dry air and warm noses, interesting to see who is correct, RAH is usually spot on.

If we get the type of vertical motion shown by some of the models, dry air will be easily overcome especially from Triangle east.

I believe I added up .6 on the RAP for MBY. Wow!

 

I'm so encouraged by the model trends this morning!  I think we could all get warning-criteria snowfall from this!  Wow at the RAP, the NAM, etc.!  :snowing:

 

NWS point forecast is up to 1-3" here and I'm under a WWA (nothing last night).

 

If the RAP verifies, we need to give it props because it signaled this thing was going to be a bigger deal for the western Piedmont and foothills last night.

ya, solid .85" QPF of which .50" is snow from what I can tell in bufkit

Chris,

 

FFC says temps are warmer in the eastern zones of their forecast area than what was expected.  The forecast for Houston County now says all rain through the afternoon.  They say the mixed precip won't begin until tonight.  Your thoughts?

 

EDIT:  I should have read your entire comment.  Not sure what Bufkit is showing for Perry, but the NWS completely removed frozen precip from today's forecast.

Thanks Allan.  The 14z RAP 850 temps looked very good throughout.  I don't know if there is another level to pay attention to.  I looked at 700 and 925 too, and they looked good as well.

 

RAP on Bufkit shows the entire vertical layer safely below zero for RDU throughout the event.  Also shows snow overcoming the dry layer between 4 and 5 PM with moderate snow till about 3 AM.
