StormyClearweather Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Can someone say the noaa app and could that be used for hall co since they went encryption? I use this app simply called NOAA Weather Unofficial. I assume it'd work with encryption(?). Awesome app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookout Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Agreed. I wonder how much longer we have until the switch to fz rain? the rap has busted terribly down this way and in general but it's soundings show GSP having 900 to 950mb temps at gsp as low as -6c. It does show the warm nose increasing over the next few hours but it's borderline as far as changing over for at least the next 3 hours... but with each run the warm nose thickens/warms less and less or is delayed so it might stick around a while.

mackerel_sky Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Agreed. I wonder how much longer we have until the switch to fz rain?I've been more zrn than sleet, limbs are starting to droop and along way to go! Temp 30.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterhawk Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I'm wondering that myself. It really is adding up pretty fast at the moment. Temp is stuck at 30.5 here as well. I have a feeling they are going to increase a little bit Sawnee which is my EMC has been ticking up in outages the last hour, the below freezing line continues to hold and in fact is creeping a touch further SW. You made a bold statement and it was an awesome call, definitely something to mark down for the future, NWS should learn from this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil882 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Sleet is absolutely saving GSP right now. It has been sleeting for a couple of hours now. This very easily could have been ZR. Very little ice accumulation thus far. Yes... the sleet right now is a saving grace for sure. I am worried it will still switch over to freezing rain as the warm nose becomes stronger, but for now this will keep down ice accretion amounts on trees and powerlines.

J.C. Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Never saw the SE windshift here. Didn't get out of the mid 30s. Just starting to get some rain right now. DP in the low 20s... Precip just started here and we have dropped quickly to 37F with winds shifted back out of the northeast. The low is definitely going slightly south of us.

Wow Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 and we're in the freezing rain and sleet here. ugh. currently 24.4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil882 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 You can see the the precip type has been predominantly sleet at GSP. Very deep cold reservoir underneath that warm nose currently. It is forecasted to erode away as WAA associated with continued precipitation occurs. Should see a transition over to primarily freezing rain later tonight. http://www.atmos.albany.edu/student/ppapin/lb13_img/hrrr/hrrr_ncep_snd_gsp.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallsLake Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Latest HRRR has us under solid precip from 8pm to 4am and then lighter stuff till 7am. I actually have some freezing rain mixed with the sleet. This really could get bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherheels Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Light snow mixing with a little sleet. Coming down the best it has all day here. If I had to guess I'd say 1/2-3/4" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lookout Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 btw, ffc is dropping the ball pretty badly around the athens area imho. First it should be a warning where there is an advisory but more importantly, oconee and oglethorpe counties do not even have an advisory and yet i know there is major icing going on in parts of those two counties...especially oglethorpe.

jburns Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 All sleet here. Hoping it stays that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyefan1 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 45 and finally some light rain yay for rain! 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. 39 and holding here 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. T Is this rain ever gonna get here? Not a drop has fallen imby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
