magpiemaniac Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 My power went off, the generator kicked on, and two minutes later, Duke turned back on. It’s really wanting to go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gritsnc Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Forsyth definitely got more accumulated ice than up here in Stokes County. Thankfully we've lost no trees or limbs and our power only flicked off and on a few times. All of my friends in Kernersville are posting pictures of multiple trees down.

magpiemaniac Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 My power and internet have been out for a couple of hours now. Barely able to post with cellular internet. (Don’t get me started about AT&T.) Generac is running, but the fuel costs are adding up in the head. RAH staff really need to revisit how they handled this event. They completely blew off the RHHH and NAM. Kudos to Tim Buckley for talking about this early and warning people. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 My neighbor’s backyard looks like he’s starting a sawmill. Huge limbs down everywhere. My yard isn’t as bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tullioz Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 The temperature at my location just west of Eden went above freezing at 6:20am and currently sits at 32.9. I ended up with right at .10" ice accumulation on trees and elevated surfaces. Driving around Rockingham County and into the Ridgeway area of Henry County VA earlier I found ice accumulations that varied from only a trace in the center of Eden, to as much as .30" in the Wentworth and Western Reidsville areas. Ridgeway had what appeared to be between .25 and .30". The only place I took the time to get out of the car and measure was in Reidsville. The picture below shows Eden at the intersection of NC Hwy 14 and Stadium Drive on the left where little if any ice accumulation can be seen, and a picture from Reidsville near the intersection of Business Hwy 29 and US Hwy 158 on the right where I measured .30". I have seen this scenario play many times over the years where inside the city limits of Eden only marginal accumulations of ice occur while areas immediately surrounding the city have significant amounts. I have found that the HRRR and the 3k NAM usually do well with the topography in this area, especially in situations involving freezing rain. For example, below is an image from the HRRR where the Dan River Basin shows up quite well. It's easy to identify where the Dan River flows out of Patrick County Virginia into Stokes County, and the Mayo and Smith Rivers flow out of Henry County Virginia and feed into the Dan in Rockingham County. Driving around today I was able to confirm that both the HRRR and the 3K NAM did very well in identifying what locations would see the highest accumulations of ice from this event. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KChuck Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I'm curious about an observation I made coming home into Kville yesterday from Thomasville. Not much ice had accrued in the trees except where I was passing highways 311 and both 40s coming back 66 into Kville from the south. The trees at those ramps and along the interstates were pretty white with ice, where once you got away from the highways there was little. Curious as to thoughts as to why. Is it because of the air movement from the traffic, the topography where they cut into the land for the highways, or some other nefarious contribution? Just curious.

jtgus Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I drove interstate from Gibsonville to Hwy 29N to Brown Summit and thru the country back to Gibsonville. More trees and limbs down in Brown Summit than here. We lost power for about two hours this morning. Car said 32 degrees for the entire trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
