Do you know what’s keeping us from switching? You will be snow within 30 mins or so, the CC shows the sleet line steadily moving east now its about in line with Grimesland, I live in Simpson and am all snow with flakes growing quickly....

That’s good to hear. I usually try to watch what you say when it comes to situations like these because there are very few people in this area and you seem to know what you are talking about. Earlier you were saying that warm air was something we wouldn’t have to worry about so I was just concerned that something had popped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah the models all had a weak 900mb warm nose but its easily overcome with rates its just those have sucked since its so dry its taken a long time to really saturate....the upside is all models give us 8-10" over the next 6-8 hrs, this is gonna be fun.

downeastnc Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 That low sure looks like its gonna get pretty close to Hatteras....I cant help but keep thinking of those insane NAM/RGEM runs last night that had 955-960 mb lows just east of Hatteras....most models had the center well east of hatteras....
