They always seem to get left out of the fun so I'm glad they are finally getting some snow. That being said, posters in the Triad need to stop being so dang greedy with their snow! Heck, I'd be thrilled with a sleet pellet right now! It RAIN in northwest SC though and NOT snow. Not snow in Atlanta either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackerel_sky Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 The cold rain meltdown is epic!!! Not sure I've witnessed one of those before! Kind of reminds me of Brick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so over here. We got completely shut out in 2012 and that may be going to happen again this winter. I'm ready for severe storms and heavy rain now. Maybe Feb and March will be like they were in 1990. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raine1212 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Looks like a big let down for evans, but all this rain is getting bad, my sidewalk and front yard has enough standing water.

Do you think we keep ZR out of Wake Co.? Seriously asking. I don't think we will have to worry about that. The good news I think we will either be snow or rain and from the looks of things it seems like the latter. The only models showing rain was the 4km NAM and its not pretty. Maybe some freezing drizzle tomorrow afternoon. Some more good news we won't be holed up in our houses this weekend, roads will be fine. Our climo has changed, we just can't get snow.

As long as we have power, we're good. The 12K NAM looked pretty good. We do rain a lot, though....although more and more reports of sleet are starting to creep into Wake. Still all rain here.

packbacker Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 You can see where the rain/sleet line is setting up, farther north, as is the snow line. It's not supposed to crash SE until well into the morning on the tail end of wraparound. This will be the biggest bust I have experienced, bigger then Dec 2000.

superjames1992 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 If GSO surpassses 9" I'm going to be kind of sad. I haven't seen a snow that big since 2002 (when I was really too young to appreciate it), and then I move away and the first year I'm away they get the Big One, and in a winter that was expected to be lousy, to boot. Meanwhile, I live in a place where half the people I meet haven't even experienced accumulating snowfall before. I need to move to Boston to make up for this! Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for my Triad peeps, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
