I've had rain since 7pm and the temperature has been steadily climbing since about 830. I think it is for Jan 7th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncstatered21 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 It’s awesome I’m about to get under it. Not as long further south down Hwy 55 has gotten it. I’ve got an inch easily...just outside of RDU. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwegian Cyclone Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Looks like the back edge will be through here soon. It was a great run. Really gonna enjoy the wintry scenes tomorrow. Glad to see all the Wake County folks finally getting in on the action. Have fun!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep those videos coming @downeastnc Winds starting to crank now too, all I want is 2-3 hrs of rates like that with quarter size flakes and winds gusting to 35-40....is that asking to much lol.

Jet Stream Rider Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 992 now. And the structure looks better now as well. Look at that moisture off the southeast coast of NC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackGrad05 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 as crazy as it is, that NAM map with the hole is verifying, at least in Wake. I've got a buddy near the 401/70 split in Garner who is struggling to get anything. That is exactly where that hole is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, rates have picked up but it is not due to an increase on flake size. RAX does look impressive with that slug coming up through the southern coastal plain and bands converging over Pitt. Would like to see it hold that edge west of 95 for the next couple hours and maybe get some semblance of a deform axis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowinnc Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I don’t even bother looking at the radar local mets show because I honestly feel like a lot of the posters here are just as or moreso knowledgeable. For those of us who live in North Raleigh/Western Wake County about what time should this be wrapping up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandhillsSnowLover Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Ok guys. I think it is winding down for me. I live 7 miles South of Dunn and like 4 miles East of 95 inside Sampson County. This storm for me was a under performer. Im pretty sure I didn't even get an inch. I got snow-holed early on so we got a late start. Once it did begin to snow I checked the radar from time to time and there it was again, that snow-hole. Can anyone explain why the snow-hole seem to be so persistent in and around certain areas? Still a lot of winter left. I am very thankful to the Lord above for what I did receive. Congratulations to the ones who got lots of snow. Enjoy!!

Jet Stream Rider Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 And it will continue to pivot and keep almost all of the coastal plain in the precip shield for many hours. If it just stays close enough to coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
