NCsandhills Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Snowing and covering the road at 70 and TW Alexander in Durham / RALEIGH. That's a dangerous intersection even when it's sunny and dry....be safe, people. Wrecks all over Triad metro ... 40 west at a standstill at 68/GSO airport exit ... glad I am home Durham too...there's a firestation maybe 1/2 mile from me and already seen / heard many firetrucks. Anyway, steady moderate snow now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaStorm Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Anyone in metro ATL seeing snow? Just noticed Alpharetta was reporting snow. Sure hope we can see some flakes before the precip is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NGA WINTER Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Given how warm the mid levels are and how much waa there is, it really is surprising to hear of sleet being reported that far south. i have a good coating of glaze now on everything. Temp is fluctuating between 30.4 and 30.7 so..which is probably where i'll bottom out I'm shocked as well. Maybe it's not gonna warm like they expected.

VeronicaCorningstone Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Starting to do something (sneet? not regular flakes, not exactly sleet) here in southeastern Wilson County/near Black Creek. Light but already starting to collect on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 70 and sunny here waiting on my rain. We can both enjoy our rain and power and patiently wait for our snow that's coming in the next 10 days. I don't know MetalMan, if that cad surge keeps coming it might get here in a few days, and I'll be in sleet too, lol. As long as it's taken the rain to get here, it might be tomorrow night and then it'll be cold enough for sure I don't mind all the snow reports, but the heavy sleet north of Atl. is making me grit my teeth, lol.

cpg2 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Thank god for you all! Here's my obs - and if it weren't for all those telling me that temps were dropping FAST with the onset of real precip, I might still be sitting in my cubicle. I work right in the middle of downtown Greenville, SC. 7:30 am: 28* on my drive into work this morning according to my car. Some clouds. 9:30am: 36* 12:45: 36* flurries. This lasted a good 45 min. 2:30: 36* light drizzle - an occasional small ice pellet. 3:45: Husband called and said I'd better leave the office. Ice covering his car and wind shield freezing as he drove home. I argued that it was fine downtown at 36*. He assured me I was wrong. (He was coming from Greer, SC) 3:50: I log on here to see what y'all are saying and hear about how temps were dropping QUICKLY as precip came in. So I left work. 4:00: Walk out to the parking lot and all cars, including mine, covered in ice with icicles dropping from them all. WTH???!?!?? It was 36* all day pretty much. It was now back to 28*F. I'm home now, but y'all really helped me out with this storm. I appreciate the obs from those saying how fast the temps dropped. I had been under the impression we wouldn't see much more than rain since the temp was steady at 36* all day. Very interesting storm so far!

Imperium Americana Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Just came back from a drive. Ran out to pick up bar oil and extra chain...and of course beer. Drove around the intersection of 306 & 369 (for those in the Cumming area). Roads are wet but clear. Almost all of the trees have a glaze of ice. Power lines off of 369 have small icicles hanging. Still showing a temp of 30.9F. Looking at the radar, is it me or is seems the affected area is increasing??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC_WX10 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Moderate to Heavy snow with those yellow returns on the radar. Little over an inch and 19.2 degrees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burrel2 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Wow this thing is really busting on the upside for my backyard. Down to 29.3 here with heavy sleet falling. The ground is turning white and everything is frozen outside. Judging by radar we are gonna get pummelled with about an inch of liquid over the next 4 or 5 hours. Awesome!!!

GaStorm Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 You on the South side? I am up between Highway 53 & 369. Roof is getting a thin glaze of ice now. Shrubs in the front yard are now getting ice at ground level. The Leyland Cyprus on both side are getting coated as well. Yeah just got home from work in Sandy Springs and the car was coated with ice. I'm on the southern end of Forsyth and there is pretty good glazing on trees and power lines already.
