Amazing! It is going to be more than 10” I think. I’m pushing 11 now. Amazing daytime snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need it closer lol....or to move more N or NNE versus ENE....I really need the NAM 12K and RGEM to be right and we get hammered with 4-6" tonight that would be a major bust in our favor seeing how this morning we were worried we wouldnt even get 1". Been a long time since something like that has happened for us....which is why I will probably be 1-2" while 20 miles to my east they get 6" lol. Another little area of rotation right off ILM would love to see a meso low form and ride up Hwy 17 or the sounds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WidreMann Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Back-building starting SW of the Triangle. Don't expect it'll add a huge amount, but it'll be nice not to have precip shut off at 5:15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burrel2 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 This was a pretty impressive storm for the total coverage... Usually southern sliders have a rather narrow band of accumulating snow, this storm's "band" of accumulation stretched from Eastern Kentucky/TN all the way down to Extreme southern LA/MS over to Macon, GA.

Cold Rain Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 You guys should look at it like this: Widre may seem negative, but it usually pays off wrt snow around here. In any event, the issues he brings up are usually legitimate and present an opportunity for folks to address those concerns. People are thinking them anyway. Might as well evaluate whether or not they’re applicable and will impact the forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Stream Rider Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Huge snow hole opening up north and east of RAH on the radar returns. Suspect some of the banding features will pass through the area still though over the next few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Really need this area oright along the coast to take over and have a low track up it, that's what the Nam 12K had happen thus the 6-8" amounts it had over eastern NC tonight, it had the swirl off ILM take over and become the main vortex pumping up moisture over east NC after the better ratios have worked in.....its probably a long shot....but its all I got to hang my hopes on so I will take it otherwise we struggle to get 1-2". However we rarely see things trend/bust at the last moment to the good like you inland folks did with this storm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Pretty good outcome overall when you recall that this didn't even show up on any models until we were within 5-6 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
