JQPublic Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 25.9 in western Wake by me and 32-33 in eastern wake. Amazing. Just as the precip begins to fill in again. Morehead City, shoots up to 54 degrees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshWeather Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 just walked outside in north charlotte and the sleet was so big and hard it literally stung everytime I got pelted. I have red marks on my hands and neck now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceagewhereartthou Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Nice storm, but not even close to historical. Just under 5" north of GSO before IP hit 3-4 hours earlier than modeled on the 12Z NAM & GFS. After 20 years of living here, wraparound is always a longshot, so will not hold my breath on any additional accumulation tomorrow. Nice storm, but nothing close to the anticipated epic event thus far. Oh it's been epic alright; epic failure, epic bust, epic let down... precipitation really breaking up in NGA, Upstate. Other than a few more pellets, that does it for the historical storm of 2014. Maybe two and a half with sleet here in easley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setzy1517 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Just sleet/freezing rain here about 5 miles from GSO. 21 and feels like 7 with the wind chill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Ridge_Escarpment Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Moderate to at times heavy snow continuing here just north of Marion. Started as snow and has stayed snow the whole time. 6.5 inches so far and could push double digits if the batch makes it this way out of AL/GA. Temp 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tlagon Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 RAH had us at 6-10...seems to be right on track. It had epic "potential" if everything went perfectly, but how often does that happen? I guess there's a reason we have had a ton of 8-10" events in the past but only a few ever much larger than that. Very true. I was buying in to the higher totals on the Euro and today's US models. Should know better - we'll end up with the low end of RAH's 6-10. Climo for this area is a much better predictor than any computer model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongwxnc Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 1 1/2" Sn with maybe pushing close to 1" of sleet. Hoping to cash in later tonight as the system moves through. <- Per GSP and Roberts thoughts. Thanks, Strong! What kind of totals do you have? Sleeting to beat the band right now with lots more downstream apparently. NE Hickory, NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEGa Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Was looking at the snow (it's running come down) and bam! Lights out lol. Been couple min now so guess time to find the candles lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lettucesnow Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Looking at radar the next few hours look to be pretty juicy for central NC. I'm anxious to see what precip will fall when the heavier rates pick up again. It's been majority sleet here in GSO with light ZR mixed in. Great storm here thus far..

chapelhillwx Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Snowing rather hard here now...playing catch up! Annoyingly it's hard to see the snow line on the COD NEXRAD radar. Looks like it's stationary fringing my area. Hopefully I can see snow too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Very true. I was buying in to the higher totals on the Euro and today's US models. Should know better - we'll end up with the low end of RAH's 6-10. Climo for this area is a much better predictor than any computer model. We might pile up the sleet tonight and the deformation band holds potential tomorrow. Their 6-10" call looks good, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to cash in later tonight as the system moves through. <- Per GSP and Roberts thoughts. I thought you'd have more than that, as I'm sure you did too. I admire your positive attitude through it all. Others could learn something by following your example. I too was hoping for much more snow, but I'm going to be satisfied with this storm because it's the biggest I've experienced since Christmas 2010. I hope you get nailed by that ULL in the morning.

WxBlue Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 6.5 inches on UNCA campus as of 9:40 pm. We might make it to 7 inches before the snow stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongwxnc Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Thanks man. After following winter storms closely for years, I have learned it is always better to be positive even if you hate the outcome! Life is better that way! With that said. Hope the boom comes down in the morning!! I thought you'd have more than that, as I'm sure you did too. I admire your positive attitude through it all.

NEGa Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Ok wow. My obs this evening were skewed. My deck was protected by the house. Went out to investigate power situation. Neighborhood dark. My lab did not break thru ice when she went out. Maybe .2 to .25 limbs and trees leaning from snow and ice and the kicker? Radar empty but holy moly it is snowing to beat the band. It is just pouring. The glacier description is the best to describe lol. Have phone and iPad to use til they need charging but otherwise my power has been out 15-20 min and after seeing roads and snow am thinking might not be fixed in 30 min or so. Of course being a wx weenie at heart it is AWESOME out there. Everything is glowing, trees are creaking and snow is a flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That band coming over the AL/GA border might provide a good 5 minutes of moderate snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy1987 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 10" in Roanoke County VA here as of 1030 and it is easily about 2" an hour right now under a heavy band. Bright orange and red returns coming north out of southern va this looks to mean business when it rolls through. Anyone have an idea when this deform band will set up shop toward morning for my area? My wife's work still wants to open unreal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Very light snow now is falling now in Dunwoody (north of ATL). First time today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQPublic Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 The sleet is begining to mix with ZR. Now sleet and freezing rain. 27.0 °F in West Cary. 6" of snow and sleet. Probably beginning to compact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Strangest freezing rain I've ever seen. We've had light rain drizzle for a couple hours now -- temp is holding steady right at 32. Cars are glazed over, covered porch deck is just wet though, satellite dish has gone out from ice, I guess. When the wind gusts, you can hear the rain slapping on the 80' pines which really sounds like sleet, but it's all liquid. Water is dripping off the side porch roof - I guess just running off the glazed surface of the snow up there. Interestingly, with as much water that is dripping, and all the glazing on the cars and all, there aren't any icicles. Really bizarre to observe.
