Couldnt ask for q better pre-storm setup. This is going to be beyond amazing. Daylight snow too! Yes, I see that now. That should allow for some good radiational cooling tonight. Surface temperatures will certainly not be an issue, which is going to be a relief. Now, we just need to make sure those 850s don't screw us.

FLweather Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Its almost hard to believe all the snow that fell today further south with it being an overall nice day here. Clouds/sun mix temp hovered around 32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapelhillwx Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Worried about areas with high dewpoints that saw precip today. Will strong CAA help to slide temps down as we go through the night and the morning, or is this about it? Currently 30/29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEGa Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 i think my brain is mushy after the model watching last couple of days and then this mornings surprise around here lol. the temps and dewpoint have been steady most of the day. noticed that all the fog is completely gone and went out to check, seems like the winds are picking up again (this time not from precip) and temp is down to 28.3 (of course that could just be due to the sun going down). i am not sure if my sensor is acting up or what, but the dewpoint has been fluctuating the last 15-20 min between 31 and 28. maybe the wedge is just starting to filter in? i honestly have seen so many models i can remember about when the CAD was expected to build in other than sometime tonight. nice to see the radar starting to get active over alabama again Temp.: 22.1 DP: 11 northern Granville County, NC / southern Halifax County, VA wow now that is a low dewpoint! send it on down our way lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berlin1926 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 wow now that is a low dewpoint! send it on down our way lol I was surprised too but I checked a few nearby official sites (Danville and Henderson) and they are down to the teens too.

J.C. Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Waiting game now. 34.4 at west side of AHN, dp at 32. That is right about what CAE is as well. CLT is 33/29, so there isn't much drier air available until you get way up into NC and Virginia, why I personally think it will be very wet in a lot of areas tonight into tomorrow morning.

AJF0602 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 27.1 here in Jacksonville with about 4-5 inches of snow, wedge is definitely strong even here at the beaches, its a little concerning with amount of precipitation we are expecting to get.

audioguy3107 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Dewpoint has fallen into the upper 20's here finally. Looks like the real drier air is still making its way down from the northern part of South Carolina.....DPs up in to southern Virginia are in the teens. Perhaps its just taken a little longer for the high to get in position not to mention the saturation that occurred earlier today with the first wave. Anywho, makes me feel much better being at freezing and DPs in the 20's before the precip moves in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHS is now reporting 35F, the same as CAE, pretty remarkable. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if CHS drops right on by CAE, Columbia is a special special place. Edit: The dewpoint at CHS is also 32F, could get ugly pretty close to the coast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berlin1926 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 We are down to 19F with a Td of 9 at Virgilinia, VA/NC NWS Blacksburg wrote (at 730PM) that they were a little worried about warmth coming into the southside of VA/ northern NC (east of Danville) but that was before the NAM was released. Maybe splitting hairs? Anyway, cold air is definitely filtering south along the US 501 and 15/360 corridors north of I-85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One part of the reason I think the models are driving the temperature down is because right above the surface it's so cold. Athens is -6c by sunrise at 950mb. I think some of the cold simply "works down". At any rate, precip breaking out fast now..rain being reported down near columbus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
