beanskip Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Robert -- I'm at 31.5, but the snowfall rate really isn't very heavy, despite decent looking returns. At this rate, it's going to take me all night to see an inch. congrats on seeing it on the ground today. I'm not going to now, for sure. Its about dark, and still all rain. What a tight gradient! I was expecting to see good snow falling during the daylight hours here, but thats not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Freaking crazy man!!!! damn The radar really looking to be blowing up and starting to pivot around this area. Man I hope it continues all night.... Nice Mark. This has been a frustrating one so far here. For the last hour theres been a few flakes mixed in, but it never goes even halfway over to snow, still all again. Just proves snow totals around here are risky for sure. I'm still hoping to get 3" or so out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysum Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I'm all rain still at darkfall. I thought a few minutes ago I was changing over. This was totally unexpected by me. I'm lowering my expectations for my immediate area. That is pretty amazing considering ground is almost covered here in Spartanburg and we still have a steady snow. Saw your last post. Fantastic news about the snow. Hopefully we are just getting started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beanskip Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 That's great to hear -- hopefully your snowrate is higher than mine -- I've fallen back to a very light snow shower -- doubt it's enough to do more than keep up with the melting -- still don't have the ground covered yet. just switched to pure snow at 5:20 pm.

Marion_NC_WX Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 The Greer doppler really isn't doing much justice IMBY, it's still coming down at a decent clip. 5 inches on the ground and 33 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowcrazy Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 That's wonderful, Robert! After about 15 minutes of snow earlier today, I've had rain ever since. Hope I'm next for the changeover... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoothillsNC Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 congrats Robert........so you're only thinking a few inches for you? What's your take on the latest RUC and radar trends? never really looked at in a few hours. I'm just happy to see it finally snow. I think what I'm going to do from this point on tonight is just enjoy whats falling, and never even look at the radar or RUC runs. It will be hard to do, but after sucha frustrating day (week !) I'm ready to just accept what ever comes and be happy with it. If its 1" total, so be it. If 4 or 6" even better, but radar can be misleading anyway in a situation like this.

strongwxnc Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I hear ya dan. I feel the same way. I assume our rates are high right now and should continue,. Look at the 850's The Greer doppler really isn't doing much justice IMBY, it's still coming down at a decent clip. 5 inches on the ground and 33 degrees.

phil882 Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 just switched to pure snow at 5:20 pm. Nice big flakes.

DaculaWeather Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I agree. If I can get 2-4" I'd be thrilled. We just hit 32 at my house here, moderate snow and it's sticking finally. You can see the webcam here but not sure how many it will stream to at once, 10 I think. You can see the 320x240 version at the bottom of my main page.

The Dude Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 It's been snowing since about 1:00 here in Stoneville, NC (1 hour north of Greensboro on the VA border). We look to have about an inch on the grass, with just a bit starting to stick on paved surfaces. No rain at all here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
