Iceagewhereartthou Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 2 hours ago, SimeonNC said: The current surface map, our CAD high is the 1038mb over Illinois right now. Encouraging that it is strong but Im worried that with precip having the potential to start early that it might not get here fast enough. Encouraging to see a 1038 and a 1036 (instead of a 1033), but hoping for a 1038 or higher. Dew in SC running in the mid to upper 30s and have risen over night as precip came in. This tells me there has been no CAA into SC yet. Need that cold to really push if we're going to make it. 38/36 here. Just noticed I 85 temps running mostly in the 40s. Low to even mid 40s showing up on wundermap in the CLT area, low 40s GSP area, with upper 30s just north in the upstate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDeac Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Temps busting high before a storm is brutal, and seems to have happened often in recent years. We're going to lose a lot of QPF before it changes over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDawg Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 As soon as the first heavy shower moved over the temp plummeted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceagewhereartthou Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Temps not cooperating yet. Per Wundermap, I see a 40 up by Lenoir and Hickory, with 39 near AVL and Hendersonville. GSP area 39-41. Up to 39/38 IMBY - we're going the wrong direction! Even Mt Mitchel St Park listed at 28 - there's no cold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDawg Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Down to 35.4 now so for now it doesn't seem to be going back up after the heavier rain/sleet shower came through and forced some cold air down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LKN WX Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Not too worried about temps, here anyway, at 40 now but winds have picked up from the NNE and my dew point now at 28 has already dropped 4 degrees in the past two hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerchick224 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 39 in Pickens while driving and there’s some slush in the rain drops.I always look to your post bc you seem very familiar with the upstate (and it’s ever so annoying) kinks that undoubtedly show up every winter. That being said, any chance this sleet mixing in now helps our circumstances in the N Upstate later?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
