Just moderate freezing rain. This is going to be ugly if we don't start pinging or snowing soon. I'm about 7 miles East of the airport and didn't hear any thunder but I hear the constant ping.

We are at 30.3F and more than a glaze of ice and snow and sleet. Yeah that what it looks like here. A solid 1.5" slab of crunchy snow/sleet/little zr. Mostly sleet atm.

Man, the wind is loud. It almost sounds like a train is rolling through. I seem to be getting IP when under heavier rates. EDIT: Actually, it looks to be mostly IP now, though ZR is mixed in.

btownheel Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Look at that precip shield......I think this one is gonna end up being a pretty serious one for us here in the north central Piedmont fellas.....pretty much from Chapel Hill/Durham west.... we need that CAD to keep pumping cold air in and keep heavy rates as well for the IP....if a majority of this ends up zr it will be crippling....gonna be nasty either way IMO (I'm not even going to mention snow seriously so I can maybe reverse jinx it ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southernskimmer Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 It is pouring freezing rain in Jamestown, NC. We already have around .2 of straight zr/ip and its not letting up. This could get ugly in terms of outages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownheel Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 There is a wicked band on it's way to MBY from Sanford atm. Might catch y'all in GSO as well (particularly east GSO). I'll keep my ears open for thunder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
