NCsandhills Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 About 2 inches, Raleigh off Wake Forest Rd @ Six Forks Rd. Large fat flakes coming down at a moderate rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullCityWx Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 The intensity of this snow might only be rivaled by 3/2009 for me. Probably pushing 3.5-4 just eyeballing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are at 32 ( never modeled to get lower than 33-34 ) got a solid 1"on the ground, 2" on elevated surfaces and the roads and sidewalks are flashing over.....so this band means business even way down here in eastern NC....

shaggy Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 2 minutes ago, FallsLake said: I saw that. It actually looks like the ice band could be light returns (which is ice), and when it get heavy again behind the band it goes back to snow. At least I'm hoping for that. Still all snow here in pitt county. Hope this stays snow a little longer for all of us. It's been impressive so far as far as flake sizes and rates.

WiseWeather Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Ive got 6.5 in Lenoir right now... light to moderate snow falling.. and sitting at 31/29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherheels Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Just absolutely ripping outside, looks like a wall of white. Visibility greatly reduced and sitting on 30 degrees. Got about 2” on the ground and that number will increase rapidly with the rates we’re currently seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the CC loop above you can see that snow crash back south over the coastal plains. Hope that stays that way and that the colder air is more entrenched and you guys out west can avoid too many mixing issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FallsLake Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Looks like the snow/ice line did shift south (looking at the radar). HRRR was right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Stream Rider Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Early onset here in the northeastern part of North Carolina. Moderate snow and the ground is covered. This was modeled better by the HRRR than by NAM. Would not be surprised to see these conditions in the vicinity of Norfolk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullCityWx Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 If you believe the HRRR, I still have 7-8 more inches to pile on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 HRRR did much better with temps and ptypes......NAM gave us .5" of slush with temps in the mid 30's...HRRR had us with 2-4" and temps down to 33 though we are at 31 now....either way Ididnt expect to see the roads covered, usually you don't get big fatties for hrs on end but tonight we have.....being on the edge pays off sometimes.... Latest HRRR run has us with 3 more hrs of snow and 2" more.....though that line on CC is getting damn close 10-15 miles south of town but it does seem to have slowed again....

FallsLake Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Can't believe I'm saying this but I'm ~5" now. I keep staying in the heavy band and it is piling up. I state the other day that if I could get 5" I would call it a win. So this is a win.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
