Poimen Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 If the HRRR is correct, the FV 3 will have been close to reality up here. HRRR is consistent with 1.5-1.8" qpf with snow totals around 15" in the northern Triad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys should have atleast another 4 hours of all snow after that so i can see it being a reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then I should stay sleet until most of the precip leaves. Currently around an inch on the ground. Snow is moderate but the flakes have gotten smaller. Temp is 30.6.

Didn’t show too much freezing rain either. Perfect scenario if it verifies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggy Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 conditions under that band are far better than I was hoping for.

WxJordan Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Snow falling Morganton, NC. Looks to be around 4 inches or so with compaction. Temperature is 32°. Starting to hear reports of power outages, and that only looks to increase with the heavy wet snow. Trees are hanging low already, and we still have a good ways to go.

nchighcountrywx Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Mesoscale Discussion https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md1702.html Mesoscale Discussion 1702 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0208 AM CST Sun Dec 09 2018 Areas affected...Portions of northern SC...western/central NC...far eastern TN...and southern VA Concerning...Winter mixed precipitation Valid 090808Z - 091315Z SUMMARY...Snow, sleet, and freezing rain will continue this morning. Heavy snow, with rates of 1-2 inches per hour, should be most common across parts of western/central NC into southern VA. Freezing rain, with rates potentially up to 0.10 inch per hour, may develop over portions of northern SC into southern/central NC. DISCUSSION...A large precipitation shield has overspread parts of the Southeast into the southern Mid-Atlantic this morning ahead of a southern-stream shortwave trough over the lower MS Valley. Moderate to heavy snow has been observed over western NC and vicinity over the past couple of hours as cold air damming related to a strong surface high centered over PA remains in place over parts of NC/SC and VA. Enhanced snowfall rates of 1-2 inches per hour should become common across portions of western/central NC into southern VA through 13Z as strong lift occurring through a saturated dendritic growth zone supports efficient wet snow production. A transition to sleet, freezing rain, and eventually rain should occur from south to north for portions of northern SC into southern/central NC and vicinity as temperatures within the 900-700 mb layer gradually warn above freezing. At 08Z, the surface wetbulb freezing line extends from roughly AVL to RDU in NC, and how much farther south it will advance this morning remains unclear. The timing of the changeover from snow to sleet/freezing rain also remains uncertain, but most short-term guidance suggests it will occur first in western SC (as recently observed at KGSP), and gradually spread northeastward into southern/central NC over the next few hours. Given the ongoing light to moderate precipitation noted on area radars, freezing rain rates up to 0.10 inch per hour may occur, but surface temperatures near freezing across this region may tend to limit ice accretion outside of the higher terrain. ..Gleason.. 12/09/2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
