That area east of the ILM site is associated with the cold pool aloft, not nearly as impressive as some of the high res guidance had it. Too little too late. Yeah kind of sad to think about it. If that UL would have stay strong and intact it would be been one h*ll of a storm for central and eastern sections of SC,NC. It probably be 15-20 years or more before a storm a storm of this magnitude every happens again this far south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Stream Rider Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 A good stout CAD in place would have been nice for this one. Presumably the western sector of the precip shield would have been more expansive and mostly snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWNC2015 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Congrats for those seeing flakes it really does suck this had a lot more potential for areas that suck at snow could have been a big dog. Now we turn west Winter Storm Watches being issued for the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Misty rain now with a little sleet still mixed in. Some pretty good gusts ( up to 49mph) around the Morehead City (Cherry Point) area. Storm pressure is down to 990 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeronicaCorningstone Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 We'll get flakes for a few minutes under a heavier band, but it goes right back to rain or rain/sleet as soon as rates drop a little. Back to drizzle with occasional pingers at the moment. Not holding out any hope for accumulation at this point, beyond what's stuck on the roof/eaves and mossy areas of the yard.

Solak Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 We're just now starting to get any winds and gusts this far removed from the storm. It was pretty calm when the precip was falling. Now we're 13, gusting to 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering if that band will get as far west as me, it certainly is bright. The western edge has steadily eroded over the past couple hours, so I am unsure how much farther it gets.

SteveVa Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I think that there are some IP mixing in with the rain. Radar confirms my suspicion as well as the accuweather app 40/35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the western fringe of that band. On my drive into to work I stopped at the sheetz by 264 and DSM and the parking lot was crunchy and the roads were getting that way as well just due to the heavy rates. At the same time I saw a beautiful red glow on the horizon as the sun set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
