Whether it's 3 hours or 6 it doesn't look like much but maybe a dusting to an inch. We need a good 50 to 75 MI bump to the northwest to get snow in through interior Northeast North Carolina and up the peninsula. Now if I were in Nags Head or Manteo I'd be pretty satisfied with the prospect of getting a solid inch or two. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is as far north and west as it gets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precip was 70 to 100 miles offshore this time yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted Monday at 06:10 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:10 PM Another subtle move NW over eastern North Carolina and Southeast VA. Little further expansive with the precept shield. Who knows how much of that would be eaten up by the dry air but at least it's not going the other way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted Monday at 08:22 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:22 PM 3k is almost a snow storm in southeast Virginia, Northeast North Carolina. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted Monday at 08:38 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:38 PM Per 18Z NAMs looks like the general 1.5 to 4 inches from Norfolk down to Kitty Hawk. Yes it's the NAM but it's something at least. Digital snow is almost as good as the real thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted Monday at 08:58 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:58 PM Now that would be one heck of an event down here. Almost 3 years to the date January 21/22 of 2022 we had just about 8 in my neighborhood. Totals ranged from 6 in Moyock to 7-9 just south of there and north of Grandy. Stark difference just south of Grandy where it mixed with rain and there was basically nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormpc Posted Monday at 10:16 PM Share Posted Monday at 10:16 PM Things are trending better for everyone without a doubt. Would love to see another 75 mile push Northwest to get the entire region. OBX almost looks like a lock to get at least a few inches out of this. Imagine 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to do some research. Here is one case of it. https://www.weather.gov/akq/25Dec1999 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpc Posted yesterday at 01:45 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:45 AM I don't pay much attention to Wakefield but they issued a WS watch for the counties along the coast south of Virginia Beach in NC in collaboration with Morehead City which covers the Dare County Outer Banks. 1-3 Currituck...2-5 inland Dare and all OBX beaches S of Corolla. I think that's really bullish. And they issued those after the 12 Z Suite. I see they are calling for up to 1 inch everywhere south of the peninsula and east of Suffolk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I did see the watches earlier and meant to mention it here, they may need to consider expanding them north of the border. The 00z 3K NAM had a notable increase in QPF, now 0.30-0.40" as far north as Hampton Roads and even 0.10" as far west as Williamsburg. With air temps in the low 20s, such ratios can easily get you a few inches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris624wx Posted yesterday at 07:48 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:48 AM 06z HRRR definitely more NW than it was at 00z. An event for the entire Southside and edging up to the Peninsula 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
