Tacoma Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 these snow totals have to be under done WNC surely will get 8 + on everything I've seen. First Call Maps for Snow/Sleet and Ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil882 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 these snow totals have to be under done WNC surely will get 8 + on everything I've seen. Never say "surely" about anything. Most of the global models are not showing 8"+ for WNC. I agree that my totals for NC might be a little conservative, but there is still plenty of time to raise these totals tomorrow if need be.

Marion_NC_WX Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I pulled out the crayons for this storm...this is my first ever map for Western North Carolina (West of Charlotte) and most of South Carolina...we'll see how it goes. BTW, here is the Color Legend for these maps... Sky Blue: 3-5 inches of snow Royal Blue: 5-8 inches of snow Yellow: 3-6 inches of snow, mixed with sleet and some glaze Purple: 2-4 inches of snow, then transition to sleet and some glaze Light Green: 1-3 inches of snow, then transition to .25 frz rain Pine Green: 1 inch or less of snow, .25 to .50 ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAWGNKITTEN Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Eyewall, if we extrapolate that south into NE GA would the same totals apply? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HatcheryHooligan Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 It's interesting to see these totals bouncing around as much as they are from map to map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Stream Rider Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Nice map eyewall. That would be a significant icing event for the areas in and around your red tint zones. Certainly would warrant Winter Storm Warning criteria for much of the state as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 WGHP: I would take that. I'm not terribly optimistic at this point, but I couldn't complain after 3" or 4" of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Jeremy wins IMO. Good maps everyone. Sad some are doing maps with NC in them but leaving out central to east NC...I guess that's a "non-event" for us per yalls maps? Just checking. 0-20" widespread is my call lol! Can't wait for the nowcast guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for the nowcast guys. I think its more of a "no one knows what is going to happen in Central NC" at this point. Three days ago I heard people saying we could get 8 inches up here, then it completely dried out on the model runs, now its beginning to look wetter up this way. They don't know, and don't want to look stupid because to be honest I don't think WRAL, WTVD, NBC17, Accu, TWC, NWS, or anyone on here has a good grasp on this situation. I sure as heck don't, I just come on here to try and learn from other folks' posts. Whatever happened to this storm being easier to forecast compared to the Xmas storm?

burgertime Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Good to know those of us in NC on the VA border will receive zero haha just kidding. Nice map! Too much bust potential either way! I was going to put a dusting to 2 inches but I figured someone with more expertise could focus on you guys like Allan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking we will have less issues with mixing, but we've just gotta get that precip up this way. It's looking better and better, but its gotta keep going!

Marion_NC_WX Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Here's the color legend for the North Carolina Map...of course with a little Tobacco Road humor Tarheels: 3-6 inches Dukies: 6-9, with mix especially south of I-40 Wolfpack Red: The big winners with 10 or more...I'm thinking someone over around Highlands or Rosman are gonna get the jackpot. South Carolina Color Legend: Red: 10 or more Royal Blue: 5-8 with mixing especially 85 and south Purple: 3-5 inch burst followed by sleet/frz rain Light Green 1-3 inches, .25 or more ice Dark Green: 1 inch or less snow, .25 or more ice inland, changes to a cold rain along the immediate coastline (Georgetown County and south) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
