PackGrad05 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 The map shows march 29 because that is the total snow from now until March 29. However, all of that falls Saturday night/Sunday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poimen Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Light dusting here. Just the tease before the big dog Sat/Sun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temps are a bigger issue on the end of the 6z run. Rain chasing cold air, we shall see. That would put a nice cherry on this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Ridge_Escarpment Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 ICON goes bonkers over WNC for the weekend storm. Been the best model this year at least for this part of the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poimen Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Keep in mind, as modeled this is a bonafide CAD event, which normally trends colder as we get closer. But then again, this is late March we're talking about so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolBreeze Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Light snow falling here too. It's beginning to whiten the ground. This reminds me of the March's of my youth when this was not uncommon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again, this is late March we're talking about so who knows. Crazy weather we're having. In late February I thought we were heading for a record early bloomage. Now I'm thinking the opposite. A lot of the flowering trees have blooms but all the others nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwegian Cyclone Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Woke up to light/moderate snow and already a dusting on the leaves here, south of Chapel Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JovialWeather Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Started getting flurries before 7:20 in south Durham. Coming down pretty good now with even a light coating on the pine needles. Flakes are of good size. Great way to start a Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tramadoc Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Drizzly rain here, but that's what was expected. I'm happy for all who get to cash in, especially those MA guys like @BobChill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Grass whitening up in South Durham, really rooting for the mid Atlantic people as well, they have missed some serious snows just to the north the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 RAH this morning: The GFS and ECMWF are coming into better agreement on timing, focusing precip from late Sat afternoon through mid to late morning Sun, and partial thicknesses from both models support a trend to broad corridors of mixed ptypes, mainly along/north of 64 through Sat night, finishing off as mostly light snow Sun as cold air rushes in on the back side of the secondary low tracking away from the Southeast coast. Given the high uncertainty of specific ptypes at this time range, however, have opted for a rain/snow mix, mainly across the north, with mostly rain south, for the time being.

NCSNOW Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Still snowing decent here at GSO airport. Sticking to everything but the roads. Trees look awesome. Stick another feather in the overperformer headpiece as far as I'm concerned. I can't remember an event this winter , where its underperformed here locally compared to what models forecast where spitting out in advance. Hopefully Sunday we can knockout one more paste bomb to close out the season. Hard to beleive this is the 3rd time weve seen snow this March.

PackGrad05 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Look at that gradient across Wake, as usual. I like RAH's discussion. I think it'll be a mix/rain event with snow on the back end. Little to no accumulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 The latest 12K NAM is quite a bit further north with the snowfall this weekend than is the GFS or ICON. Buddy is going to be in heaven, after last night's heavy snow and then this upcoming event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 With the potential of more snow this weekend, I wonder what the record for frozen events (significant or not) in the month of March is for central NC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
