What is surprising is they are giving 3-4 hours of ..rain..in the mountains...? I believe this has to do with timing of precip - expect MANY more advisories tomorrow AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought rain would be a problem in the mountains I thought the precip was suppose to come in after dark tomorrow night, guess the weather system has sped up a little. they had first said freezing rain and light snow, since its coming in earlier in the day guess it will be rain but the roads will ice over from the rain Tuesday night with temps around 15, bet a wwa will go up for tomorrow night early Wednesday morning for black ice.

Red1976Red Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Blacksburg says no east of the blue ridge.

LovingGulfLows Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 ICON and new RGEM looks way better for the Atlanta area...wide spread 1-3 inches. I could see continue trends upward...finally models might be catching on to an earlier gulf moisture tap due to a sharper trough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjwxman Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 The NAM/CMC/ICON are close, if not a warning criteria event. RAH WS warning criteria: 3"+ in a 12 hour span or 4"+ in a 24 hour span. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowlover91 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 18z RGEM is dumping on western NC through end of run, looks like 3-6" and pockets much higher with snow still falling. It's a bomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lookout Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 1 hour ago, WarmNose said: Man that gulf tap really got pumping on the NAM once the frontal boundary got over the mountains. Big uptick in totals in the souther part of the upstate The destruction of the precip band as it crosses north ga only to reform quickly as it moves past has been maddening to see on the models. To see virtually *everyone* except north ga see at least some light snow in every direction is just too much. The good news is the models in general have been trending wetter and the eastern/southeastern upstate will be fine but it sure looks like there could be an area of super screwjobbing over north central ga/far western upstate...between the edge of downslope flow and the refiring of precip. The latest runs have me in the snow (except gfs) but it wouldn't take much for me not to be. Considering history here at ga's leeside screwzone, i wouldn't bet against it.

Wow Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 GFS continues the trend of backing the trough southwest but not enough to drop it further and turn more neutral with a cutoff like the ICON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
