Gonna be some insane rates Yeah easily in my opinion especially if this ramps up real fast. Someone is going to see 2 inches an hour somewhere.

Tacoma Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Winter Storm Warning URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg SC 423 AM EST Sun Jan 2 2022 NCZ053-021730- /O.NEW.KGSP.WS.W.0001.220103T0300Z-220103T1700Z/ Buncombe- Including the city of Asheville 423 AM EST Sun Jan 2 2022 ...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM THIS EVENING TO NOON EST MONDAY... * WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 2 to 3 inches across Asheville and vicinity, with amounts up to 5 inches at the highest elevations. Winds gusting as high as 40 mph. * WHERE...Buncombe County. * WHEN...From 10 PM this evening to noon EST Monday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditions could impact the morning commute. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Rain is expected to change over to snow at high elevations late this evening, and then down to the valleys after midnight. A few pockets of brief freezing rain are possible during the transition, but all the precipitation should change to snow by the early morning hours. Although the ground is relatively warm because of the recent warm temperatures, the snow is expected to fall hard enough to accumulate even on roads. The snow may linger into the middle part of the morning along the Tennessee border, but slippery roads may persist through the remainder of the morning hours, with temperatures below freezing through noon.

Woke me up a little before 3. Fair amount of lightning and weather station says I ended up with 3/4” of rain. It was coming down hard for about 5-10 minutes at one point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should see some 2 to 3 inch an hour snows in the mountains. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phelps Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Just looking at how this plays out on the hi-res models it looks like all this snow has to fall in about 4 hours. I guess that's the entire point with a system like this. I may need to set an alarm to catch the most impressive rates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
