TARHEELPROGRAMMER88 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Raleigh is likely going to bust. Congratulations to those who got good snows. I am really happy for Mitch, they deserve it down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you got under a good band, you have solid accums. If you haven't...you're not looking at much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastonwxman Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Been getting light to moderate snow here in Gastonia and it's still going! Everything's covered in white here! 26° for current temperature and dewpoint. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forecast looks pretty spot on to me so far. There are still several hours at least of snow to go and we already have about an inch in southern Wake. Most predictions I saw for this area were in the 1-3" range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I missing from the panic??? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StantonParkHoya Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Maybe my KPIs don’t align with most. I use inches more so as a guide for duration. Duration = time of enjoyment. Time of enjoyment = period of snow falling. Do people really derive enjoyment out of pulling a ruler out of their back pocket and measuring? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop staring at the radar and worrying about what could go wrong or busting and go enjoy it. This is Rocky Mountain powder and snowing steady with plenty to go 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Ridge Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 It’s powder city in the Triangle and we’ve got dudes crying bust because we might not hit warning criteria.

SnowDeac Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 About to go for a walk. We’ve got a little over a half inch it appears near South Park and still coming down nicely. Back end starting to creep East a bit on radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullCityWx Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 The heaviest bands don’t even arrive until 10PMish but yes, it’ll bust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxSynopsisDavid Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Pretty negligent to be saying this is a bust when we aren’t even through 50% of the storm yet. Someone needs to learn how to look at radar and satellite imagery and calm down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshWeather Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 the guy that said its going to bust has been one of the two most pessimistic people on this board i've seen over the last few weeks.

Still beautiful but no accumulation. Is it the same where you are? I’m in North Hills, near Douglas Elementary. It’s very light atm, but we’re probably close to 1”. Rates and ratios should increase soon. Would guess we’ll land around 3”. Couldn’t be happier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

85snowline Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Most beautiful snow I've seen in a good 10yrs over the past 2hrs.

If he doesn’t know how to interpret radar and satellite imagery there’s enough of us in here that can teach him. But to scream bust with every storm, every setup, it gets old. Just stop looking at the model data and move on. Honestly that’s probably the issue, looking at model data in the present which conflicts with radar/satellite imagery.

CaryWx Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I've only have tiny grit like snow coming down. But there's nothing minor at all about this event and a solid 24 F. Temps is going nowhere but down. edit: Powder is almost blinding too and will only increase 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been in snows ranging from 30” to white rain and some of my favorites occurred when it snowed for 18 hours and amounted to a couple inches. I think most people down here see snow so little and it melts so fast they want totals over duration. For me, there’s nothing better than watching it snow from sunrise to sunset. But in the end I’d prefer higher totals over duration in hopes it sticks around for more than 1 or 2 days to enjoy with the kids. For reference, the storm last week was Charlotte’s first 1” or more snow in 1,133 days. Pretty dismal. Every snow could be the last one we see for years so emotions run high with every one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like another Delta/Endeavor (JFK to RDU) was re-routed to CHO. edit: you mentioned the redirect in a separate comment. My bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
