suzook Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Been sitting at 32 for a couple hours, and the rain has started again. I'm amazed at how quickly whatever snow/sleet we had has melted on paved surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte snow hole. 16 minutes ago, sarcean said: I am over in north end of Lake Wylie and yes small flakes / very little so far At some point soon, the hole will fill in. It's like a dry slot boundary has set up over the core part of the Metro Charlotte area and it's precipitating in Rowan, Cabarrus, Iredell, Gaston, Lincoln, and Catawba to the north and York, Lancaster, and Chester to the south. However, dry with flurries and a handful of flakes on the CLT Terminal Radar returns since 12. I've looked at the NEXRAD radars out of GSP, CAE, RAH, MRX, FCX and all have this weird shadow over the Metro Charlotte area with the precipitation returns.

kayman Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 1 hour ago, a5ehren said: The answer to these kinds of things is always politics. At some point Greer, SC probably had a rep that had oversight over Commerce. HUN still has an office because the rep threatened to nuke NEXRAD funding if they shut it down. Yes, it does have everything to do with the parlor-tricking of the US Congress. Yet, those shall remain nameless individuals at this time, who are all from the state of South Carolina, all love to eat off the explosively rapid expanding economic plate of CLT. Their disrespect for Charlotte shows but begs for York, Lancaster, and Chester counties to be in alignment with the CLT is very obvious. I know the full backstory, but it is not for this subforum thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a shadow on the regional radar reflectivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayman Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 The funny irony is because of the dry slot over Metro Charlotte it is causing more radiational cooling in the entire column of the atmosphere. The air temperature has dropped here 3 degrees in the past 4 hours from 33 to 29 degrees at my location. Especially when the air and surface temperatures are gradually lowering while the dewpoint is raising to cause 100% humidity for the precipitation come to the ground. Orographic lifting to the west and southwest might also play a role in this dry slot situation as well too. I still have a hard time believing it will be anything other than snow with sleet mixed in when it does come down to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
