Down to 37.6 at 11pm. I don't expect to see anything here but it would be nice. Last time I remember any April flurries was 2007. Most April snow I ever remember was about a 45 minute shower around lunch time in the middle of April 2003. Was just barely starting to stick on the cars but that was the best could do. Honestly it's just nice to see some cool temps and frost in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDowell_Weather Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Looks like a lil snow trying to develop south of chesterfield s.c any posters in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallsLake Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Very hard to get April snow outside the mountains. (usually) You need the perfect setup with precip falling at night or early morning. But (like in our case) you need the night to be clear to cool the air down towards freezing. So early morning precip is the key. RAH states we have until ~10 to see any mix. For RDU folks, precip will overspread southern Wake County first and this may be the prim place to see a few flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As precipitation moves into central North Carolina from the south early this morning, the presence of cold dry air at the surface will lead to a wintry mix of rain and snow. During instances of heavier precipitation, the mixture may temporarily change to heavy wet snow. While little if any impacts are expected from the wintry mix, where the bursts of heavy wet snow occurs, the snow may briefly stick to grassy surfaces before melting.

tazaroo Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 It looks like the moisture is just a little too late for the NC triad and triangle areas. I may luck out being in the SE triad but I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our problem is we're too far north (sometimes it bites both ways). The sun is strong this time of year, even through the clouds. Southern Wake, Chatham, and maybe right into Raleigh have a shot. I guess we do to but it'll be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of york and the lancaster panhandle are a lock for a coating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
