PackGrad05 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 The leading edge is still rain. I can confirm down here in southern Wake right now. Light rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherNC Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Just eyeballing radar, I think the NAM is a little west with the heaviest axis, I would paint it along at Pittsboro to Oxford line. Going to head down to Butner and then to Oxford for lunch, likely to spend the afternoon ivo Oxford, maybe a little SW of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're going to make the most of the back end of this event. Agreed. Rain meter also shows I only lost about .05 of liquid before snow started. If we can get up to that 15-20 ratio we will really cash out. I’ve missed out a lot down here the past few years while you guys 25-30 miles away have gotten decent amounts so I’m just happy to have the ground covered at this point. Everything else will just make it better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 NWS RaleighVerified account @NWSRaleigh 15m15 minutes ago A look at our mid morning storm-total snowfall accumulation update. Have raised values, especially west of the Triangle where 2"+ reports are already streaming in. Expect 5 - 7" in these areas with a localized 8" amount possible. Roads already becoming hazardous. #NCwx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunBlade Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Latest HRRR still giving me about another .5 liquid, .75 still close. Regardless. .5 was more than I was supposed to get total so very excited for what’s to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no rain-snow transition here in SW Cary. Just snow. It’s been snowing pretty steady for about 45 minutes but no accumulation yet. Ground still too warm.

Snow started here about 30min ago and there was no rain at the onset, went to moderate snow quickly. And now they have raised totals back up again.

WidreMann Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 HRRR is verifying too warm. The 14z run had temps already in the 33-35 range across most of the Triangle for 11 AM, with above freezing stretching up northward into S Va. But instead it's right around freezing for most of the area and below freezing W and NW of Durham. I guess it can't deal with the snow rates properly.

Jet Stream Rider Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Bulge in the above freezing 925 analysis accounts for some rain at onset down east and into the southern and eastern Wake county area. This area is continuing to push south and east and the entire Triangle should be all frozen soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
