FLweather Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Temp is down to 34 R/S line is finally making progress. Have been predominate rain with sleet mix with heavier returns. Returns are getting lighter via radar but precip still falling good. More sleet is mixing in though so its a sign that the upper levels are cooling. About .2" worth of rain. Edit. Sleet went to snow. Currently light snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Its snowing lightly. Finally tranisitioned from sleet to snow. It seems like the surface cold is coming in a little slower than expected, but the mid-level cold might be faster. Many areas seem to be changing over to snow before they get below freezing, which didn't look like it was going to happen as of last night. I really want to believe the HRRR, but I'm not sure...

FLweather Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Big size flakes with this burst of moderate snow. Dime size flakes. It seems like the surface cold is coming in a little slower than expected, but the mid-level cold might be faster. Many areas seem to be changing over to snow before they get below freezing, which didn't look like it was going to happen as of last night. I really want to believe the HRRR, but I'm not sure... Yeah its been wierd on the evolvtion of this. I figured the surface cold would be over powering by now with temps below freezing. But with the upper levels cooling faster still shouldnt have any problems getting below freezing once the snow actually starts. I wouldn't mind the hrrr depiction. Still think 3-4" is possible. Edit: Yeah NCWX10 Im surprised how quick it happened too. Once the r/s mix let up it went to light sleet for about 10 mins than all snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarheelwx Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Eastern TN has really filled in. Get that in here with temps in the 20's and it might be nice. I'd expect snow rather than sleet too TW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packbacker Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 RGEM does show a lull in precip from 1-3pm or so and than from 3-8pm it gets some nice bands going, so it could be hit or miss with the bands, you get under a good band you could get something good. It doesn't have any frozen precip for RDU until after 2pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLweather Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 The R/S is parked right now along the border or just above. It probably won't start moving until we get under better influence of the ULL. Currently back to a pinger fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
