WeatherExperiment Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 SPC issues MCD for Central and Eastern N.C.. http://www.spc.noaa..../md/md2134.html That's a pretty strong and definitive statement by the NWS! Obviously, with Union County NC falling into that area, I want to buy into it. But I'd like to hear some opinions about this statement from our resident message board mets. Thoughts? Opinions?

NegativeTilt Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 SPC issues MCD for Central and Eastern N.C.. http://www.spc.noaa..../md/md2134.html I approve of that message. So this is looking like it may still hug the coast and not as far out to sea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapelhillwx Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Nice of them to put the pink squiggle for heavy snow a few counties west of me, instead of through Orange. That makes me feel like it might actually happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augustagaweather Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I just finally started getting some wet flurries mixing in 10 miles north of Augusta, GA. Temp down .5 degrees in last 30 minutes. If I can get a full change over in the next hour or two I'll be well ahead of CAE's forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyredog28 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Is it me or does the northern line look to be building just as much N possibly NNW as much as it's moving NE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil882 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 37 deg and light rain I don't think all hope is lost for you... precip is streaming back int Columbia quite rapidly and as the coastal low gets cranking, 925mb temps should start to crash southward. I think you are not too far away from some snowfall. Looks to be winding down on the N. side of Greenville, SC. Smaller flakes and the wind is picking up. I can't wait to see what the coastal has in store for those downeast! How much are you with total now... snow is tappering off here as well, but still have some light snow coming down at a decent rate. Looks like the band really doesn't want to quite quit here yet, as there are a couple more pulses of higher dbz heading towards the SE part of Greenville, SC. its a shame though we won't be able to get in on the coastal precipitation associated with the surface low... its starting to really pivot back almost due north, but after this extra band moves through, we lose the upper level moisture in this area. I still think Charlotte might be able to get under this next lobe of precipitation as it continues to stream northward from Columbia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I approve of that message. So this is looking like it may still hug the coast and not as far out to sea? The low looks to miss Cape Hatteras by about 50 miles or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCSNOW Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 moisture in SC looks to really be picking up as it heads my way. http://radar.weather...theast_loop.php Thats what Im waiting up for. Hopefully it will reward us with 1+ inch per hour rates. Wish the trough would go negative right when those echoes get over us and pivot a while. (wishful thinking). I have a little over an inch out this way, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think Charlotte might be able to get under this next lobe of precipitation as it continues to stream northward from Columbia. The deck and the grass has a solid 3-4". The roads go from slushy to about an inch maybe. I wish it would have gotten a little colder. We would have had a lot more sticking that's for sure. I may call it a night. Have a good night all! Maybe I'll sneak a peak at the radar tonight to see what's up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgertime Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Yep looks like CLT and point east will get the rewards from the precip blowing up over SC. I think I'm just a little too far west, but it appears I have a decent band settling over me. Closing in on 2 inches now. Hopefully so if we luck out this will be a very interesting storm as far as who won and who lost. Light to moderate snow right now with a temp of 31.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeronicaCorningstone Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Very, very light snow at the moment (first of the night). Last obs @ RWI, temperature 34 with DP of 31 (about 9 miles north of Wilson). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWY316wx Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Looking at the radar, you boys up in North Carolina are about to score as long as you don't have temp issues. LP is moving right across JAX and is about to hit the ocean and make the coastal track. Best of luck guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNCCmetgrad Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Coming down at a really good clip now, the heaviest it has been. Nice quarter sized flakes. Surprised as it is still not really accumulating on the streets yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilotwx Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Alright folk time to go to bed it's about done here and I don't expect but maybe an inch more. Those to the south and east good luck and it looks like you guys are going to have some fun really soon. Ya'll waited long enough for it! Have about 6 to 7 inches on the ground, so I'm good with that. Like I said earlier these were the tiniest flakes but it added up to a lot. I think we all need a break from the board, maybe we will get a couple of days of warm weather and we can recharge for the next one? If anyone gets thunder snow please tell us about it and get some Pics. or Video of the intense snowfall rates if ya can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
