Poimen Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 This is the second time today I've said this, but this time I really mean it: this is the heaviest snow I've ever seen. Visibility still about 1/4 mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WidreMann Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Keep seeing snow return for bits of time, in between sleet. Also it's a bit breezy out, despite the temps warming slightly. I hope we can keep it frozen till noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QC_Halo Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 In Charlotte. Drizzle. It’s a mess out there. Just saw an email report of transformer blowing in the neighborhood but I still have power. went to my 24hr storage unit to get sleeping bags, ski clothes,. Entered my access code, gate goes up, I drive though. Immediately after I drove through, the gate stopped 3/4 of the way up, just enough for me to drive through, then started dropping. Dropped and stopped about 1/4 of the way down. Houston, I might have a,problem trying to get back out. Went ahead and got my stuff. Drove back to the gate and it was still stuck and didn’t lift when I drove up. Got out, heard the motor working but gate wasn’t moving. I tried knocking off as much ice as possible, all the while avoiding the 7,000 volt electric wires. Wouldn’t move. Used my ice scraper to physically push the huge gate up. Got it up high enough to drive through and zipped out. Not sure if it ever came back down.... of course I forgot to get some stuff I will need if power goes out...not sure if I’ll try and go back. Sorry if this is inappropriate for this thread...delete if needed. just relaying what a mess we’ve got on our hands here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolBreeze Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 For the Winston-Salem / G'boro people: Sleeting here now, not a lot of snow mixed in. I hope it doesn't reach up to you! Is this the warm nose pushing through, or is the CAD eroding? Edit: I hoping it's just that the rates have dropped and it'll switch back to snow...

You are obviously in the sweet spot even though I know we can’t be too far from each other. We are at little over 7” now but we have a sleet and snow mix unfortunately. If you could get a foot with us staying at 7” that would be amazing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see what the airport ends up reporting (close to where I used to live). I’d expect INT to do better than GSO, as well. It seems that the forecasted QPF has turned out to be fairly accurate. My OBS: 64/OV. James- hate you’re missing this one brother. This is going to go down as an all timer for the Triad. Incredibly heavy snow, has to be 1.5-2” per hour rates right now. Temp still holding at 26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvegas-wx Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Here come the school cancellations....obviously. Forsyth is closed tomorrow. My guess would be Friday at the earliest.

WeatherHawk Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Heavy snow here...vis about 1000 feet...haven't gone outside but from my window looks like about a foot here...as my gas can is almost completely covered and it's about 15 inches tall. I'll send some pics later when we get out into this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oconeexman Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Roughly 2" of snow and a pile of sleet and zr and rain here. Big totals in the mtn rest area from what I'm hearing. Salem and walhalla had around 5" of snow but have been told close to 10" up the mountain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheapdad00 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 7" in western wake county at the Chatham county line. Light precip now, hear some pingers. Just got back from a drive and Town of Cary has plowed all the non-neighborhood roads around here. McDonalds was open. Almost got backed into by a snowplow in the Harris Teeter parking lot.

We have a mix that is mostly sleet right now. I have a feeling the snow is gone for good. I just hope the rain isn’t bad enough to wash this away.

Ander Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 All our rulers have apparently been turned into ninja swords or reinforcing pieces to box forts lol. Guesstimate of 8 inches in Durham NC by the Southpoint Mall. Freezing rain now - pinging off the house non stop. Few loud sounding gusts of wind rolling in.
