It has limited moisture and would be novelty flakes to a dusting for my area if anything. But flakes are flakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDawg Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Wish the GFS and Euro weren't so far apart though. For here in North GA that looks good if it can just get any moisture far enough north. Would be happy with just a tenth of an inch or two liquid from a small finger of precip sliding west to east. But Euro is just a standard frontal passage with a warmup ahead of it.

PackGrad05 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Interesting map, but I wish it was more specific. Shows portions of Wake County at 5 feet, and I really don't think that's true... Most of Wake would be 1-3 feet over that time frame I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably pretty close and shows the gradient there well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noway we have been anywhere close to 5 feet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool to look at but I seriously question the accuracy. I’d like to see a closer look at the mountains, hard to map out ridge tops and higher elevations that far zoomed out and smoothed out. Puts me at around 2’ a year which seems to be correct lately from what I’ve gathered but also less than there used to be from what I’ve heard from residents too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Looking forward to getting past the half-way point in Jan. Should see some signs of life showing up pretty soon. Somewhere near the beginning of H2 January, we'll be tracking our first legitimate threat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The below image is for the 15th. It shows the cold (2m temps) pouring in; but what I like is it also shows the effects of the mountains (always slows our low level cold). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tar Heel Snow Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Well we haven't had a chance to see a clown map in awhile, so here you go from today's morning CFS one month out.
