Dude has never come through before. Maybe this is the one? I smell a 6" snow topped off with some sleet and ZR. Hope I'm wrong, which is usually the case. Feels a lot like that for the Triad to me. Usually mix with a lot of sleet in these storms. I think 6-8" is a good call. Or maybe I'm just vindictive and bitter since I live in Florida now and the Triad looks in line for a good storm. I don't know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I'm further south than you but I still cant help but to feel it's slipping away. Guess for SWVA it's 3K NAM/ICON/RGEM vs 12K NAM and the globals?

LOL, you guys always do this in SW VA, then after that last minute NW jog end up getting 8-16" all snow while the areas south of the state line turn over to a raging sleet storm.

Touchet Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I think the southern part of NC, far NE Georgia, and far NW Virginia will see an ice storm. In NC, it will start as snow/sleet, but the southern part will change over to rain/ice. The southern part of NC will change over to snow later in the event. The southern mountains will be quicker to change to snow. The NW mountains and far northern NC will stay snow the entire event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarmNose Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I can’t wait to waste the first 2.25” of precip to rain. Backend freezing drizzle will suffice I guess. At least Landrum is a short drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh, I get sleeted on too sometimes. If we lose the EURO this afternoon, it's officially worry time for real. Currently hugging the 3k NAM/RGEM/CMC/ICON...that's perfectly reasonable, right?!

SnowDeac Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Interesting how Widre is now relatively positive and this PackWxMan dude is the heat miser that's easy to dislike. Not to say this won't be a bust, especially for fringe areas like CLT and RDU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QC_Halo Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Curse anyone? Bought a snow shovel, ice melt and a new sled yesterday. Sorry CLT nerds..know I’ve cursed the Queen City. Had to be done. If I get any snow/ice, my sidewalk stays icy for at least a week. So, I went all in. As usual, when I need it, they are already all gone. Even bought the kid a new snow disc. Might as well do it all at once. Sorry in advance. i might take the fam to Sugar to do some skiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone in NC has power, maybe they can post some snow pics so we can see what it looks like! Or have to take a trip up Caeser's Head. Stinks livin south of the border when you want snow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No snow for you Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I see the GFSFV3 is sucking @Cold Rain in. He has the snow shield all the way down to 45%. If the GFS FV3 does verify, I am going to send the developers a case of Red Bull for a job well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDeac Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I just, after 9+ years of lurking/occasionally posting, learned how to read a sounding. For some reason, I never realized the degree lines were diagonal. I'm normally a fairly bright guy, I swear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
