BIG FROSTY Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Just now, Jonathan said: I wouldn't rule out a tick more than token flakes for us, Frosty! Watch this thing jog NW tomorrow. That's my hope, but it's early in the season. So they might catch this one and us next time!! I would like to see a storm where most on the board sees snow...... Hey I love my fellow weather junkies, But I'm really punching the walls hoping on that NW jog. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a good old fashioned southern slider then a turn up the coast to give the Raleigh guys a shot too. I always root for everyone, but when it comes down to it, everyone wants it in their own backyard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKY_WX Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Taking a look at the euro closer tonight and it looks like mostly snow for Raleigh with some rain mixed in obviously. The sfc temps aren't a huge issue, falling into the lower 30's by the late afternoon/early evening. 850mb temps oscillate from 0c to -2c. It's all going to come down to how amped this thing is once it navigates the MS Valley. If it's closer to the NAVGEM, western NC get's slammed, if it's the euro, eastern NC is the prime spot. With the lack of cold air damming, it's all going to be dependent on SLP/850mb low track and strength. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Wlos 13 call at 6 tonight. Seems very reasonable given where we are. Stated best place is N of I-85 and S of I-40. I would change the word worst to best though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have been honest about the set-up even though he didn't expect snow from it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need QPF and precip to come NW vs current guidance. I would go with a car topper or deck dusting with what we have now, we are on the edge of a very sharp precip cutoff.

I really hope I don't have to end up driving south (of all places) to see the first accumulating snow. I've heard people on here say the models tend to not throw precip back far enough NW in these type situations so if they're right and our thermal profiles look good (which they do, especially as far NW as us), game on!

Wow Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 21z SREF looks like the 9z from today, which is good since the 15z was a step back. Still not CMC/UKMET level to say the least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be Cherokee is where there is a tight gradient. You and I might score and someplace like Waleska gets almost nothing. One thing's for sure, I work friday but productivity will be at a bare minimum lol. It's awesome to have a threat this early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy1987 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Nam run should be initializing soon. The thing that killed us today was that darn bowling ball that drops out of Minnesota. I believe HKY and myself caught this around the 57-66 hr Mark. Keep an eye on that as to how telling the run will be for tonight’s 0z run, along with the orientation of the trough axis. Two indicators if this thing goes the right or wrong way on us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
