AirNelson39 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 About 90/10 sn/rn here in Hudson NC. Huge huge wet flakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirNelson39 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Also temp is supposed to reach 31 tonight, roads are soaked. This could be bad and I'm hearing no one say anything about it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Heavy, huge wet flakes for about 30 minutes, but it was 37F or so at the time, so not much stuck. What has stuck is mostly on grassy areas, and we've probably got .5" at most. Roads are very, very wet, though. Could be interesting in the morning. Moderate snow, for now, with those huge flakes mixing in suggesting the temps are still borderline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCSNOW Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Rn/Sn mix 34 Had a few drips of something. It aint pinging and it aint white, so it can only be one thing. Actually I almost am willing to classify it as undefined, my floodlight is about shot along with my eyesight from straining. 36/29 EDIT: All snow now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirNelson39 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 It's 30 degrees here in Hudson and there has just been a school bus flip in Caldwell county due to black ice. Roads were soaked last night and the forecast low was 31, I can't believe something wasn't said or done last night! Here at 710AM Caldwell County schools announce a 2-hour delay. After buses have started at 530 and many kids already on there way to school. This is about the latest I've ever seen a call be made. I just hope any kids on that bus are ok.

phil882 Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 We ended up with a dusting here last night, with a couple of stronger bands of snow around 1am... all in all my map call from the day before was a total bust, who knew the snowfall maximum would actually be further north into NE Tennessee.

phil882 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Full bore on snow has started here, 31.1F and it's coming down at a decent clip. These type of westerly setups normally are not very good for us in Asheville, as the mountain chain is oriented more north to south than east to west. I'm not expecting more than 1" in the greater Asheville area from the event. However folks to the east and west should be on guard, as both the nam and gfs are showing a mesolow formation just on the lee of the Appalachians tomorrow late morning, very similar to January 2003. This round likely won't be as strong (we don't have the perfect jet orientation that the 2003 event did) but expect a significant area of light to moderate snowfall moving across NC tomorrow.
