JQPublic Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 The dry slot is getting close. The initial thump didn't have enough for us to get much accumulating snow. It almost looks like drizzle outside right now. Don't hear any pinging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwupstatewx Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Still rain here with some (<1/10in) sleet. What a giant waste of QPF here as we're riding the wet bulb freezing line. Let's hope it pushes a little further south/west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshetley Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Only rain here so far. We have not had the first flake of snow or pellet of sleet.Hopefully it'll stay above freezing now so we can keep our power on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowNiner Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 No matter what precip type we get, so far the total amount of qpf I don't think is going to be very impressive. Not going to throw out the bust word quite yet but the radar keeps breaking up, other than the main squall line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amos83 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I'm pretty sure the lull was expected.... we are seeing the original low die out and transfer energy to the new, much larger and more powerful storm, that will be developing off the SE coast. We are just in the beginning phases of our storm people... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 It just started. Only about an hour into it here. And people already saying the precip is gone or we're going to have an ice storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDUBRDU Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Heavy IP/ZR mix in Raleigh. This is going to get nasty. Thankfully I live next to Rex so hopefully the power won't be out for too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormyClearweather Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Well it's 33.1 and raining, with maybe a sleet pellet thrown in(?). I think I can probably see the 32 line from my house. Are we all having fun yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiQuiDBuD Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Woke up to 8" and heavy snow about an hour ago. Right at the upper end of guidance, I like where this is heading!

AirNelson39 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Not too impressed with the looks of the radar for western NC. Those "it'll fill in" storms never work. Wth Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can never just have one storm that doesn't dryslot, get cut off moisture wise, underperform, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG FROSTY Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I knew it was to good to be true 12-18 inches!!! LOL Might have 2 now but precip is all broken up, dry slots everywhere.... No way I will even get close to those amounts unless it really gets better organized.... Got heavy snow right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Massive dry slot in central NC...not filling in at all. No one saw that coming. How the hell do you have gulf AND Atlantic moisture and get a dry slot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triadwx Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Massive dry slot in central NC...not filling in at all. No one saw that coming. How the hell do you have gulf AND Atlantic moisture and get a dry slot? Very frustrating, but it would be nice if someone could explain the science behind it. Truly baffling.
