burgertime Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Are we really upset that the HRRR is bringing down totals for an ice storm? I get if it were all snow but I'm thankful. Spare me no power and tree damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well a winter storm warning covers freezing rain as well as sleet accumulations, so I thinking debating which one to issue is a semantic arguement.

Widremann screwzone in full effect. The RAP looks similar. I would have expected the precip minimum to be further west in the foothills. Hey! Leave us alone over here, James. It's about time that we weren't the precip minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PackGrad05 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I'm not concerned about central NC dropping off at all. The bulk of the precip was never expected to arrive this early anyhow... Still a long ways to go in this one and there is a LOT of precip on the radar to the south and west... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jshetley Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 If something does not change fast GSP will bust this for their piedmont counties from Greenwood to Chester. Laurens is at 30 now and I am sitting at 29 now with heavier precip getting close. My forecast from GSP is for little to no ice tonight and I cant see how that will be right. WYFF shows Jonesville at .30 of ice which is closer to reality I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpstateSCBud Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Chris Justus and John Cessarich at WYFF have upped their forecasted ice totals for the upstate.

They have Greenville getting 0.03" of ice which isn't logical at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half inch accrual looks to be a given, and just enough sleet to make the coating look like it has pimples, to quote on of my favorite posters-It just got real- Brick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
