We deserve this. Even if it’s just 3in in NC. We have a lot of cans of soup left.

Raleigh crazy sleet and fr

And many other mets disagree…. So we wait and keep our guards up. I don’t think anyone knows. It’ll be interesting.

I think because a lot of us live here. Yeah. West of here will probably see worse and has.

I think there’s really unrealistic expectations of mets. I’ll say it again. Weather is always changing and lately it’s wonky. The mets do there best to keep us informed based on the models the best they can. They allllll did so. Daily. Heck, hourly. They let us know about the changes. It changes. Just be glad it’s not .5 or more here. Some people are messed up out west and again, this isn’t over. If we get .25 or close it we could still lose power. All we can do is chill. The whole “bust” thing irritates me.

That’s subjective too. People in the triangle could lose power for a number of reasons. Thankfully it won’t be because of .5-.8 inches of ice. But it won’t stop trees that are weak from being a problem. Some people will suffer from this even if you don’t. I don’t see this as a forecasting bust. Weather is always changing and thy have kept us informed. Chill.

Precisely. This isn’t over. Watch temps stay low. All we can do is wait it out and stay as safe as possible.

https://youtu.be/3AzE-zsWY0I link to Brad P’s post. It was informative. This ain’t over. From the triangle, n and w, it could and likely will stay below freezing til it’s over and past. Today has always been predicted to be the dicey day. Heavier stuff coming. He breaks it down so it’s easily digested.

Who knows. I’ve been watching what Allan has been posting this morning and replying to other about concerning this and he said it may stay freezing til after heavy precip is out of here in Raleigh.

Yes and at the same time I’m seeing a lot of mets saying that from the triangle n and w it could stay below freezing until after this is done. I keep saying… words matter. Plus, thy got the temps wrong last night. We weren’t supposed to get below 24 and it was 18 here in nw Raleigh. Thy need to say this is possible and this is possible and we honestly don’t know be prepared for anytime. They can think all they want, but maybe don’t say it all. Same for the mets on tv.

Raleigh 18-19 degrees sure has been colder than predicted. Mets just said the moisture is building up where it was less and to expect heavier rates soon

Heavy sleet a rain for a long while now. Glazing. White roads. All that. Raleigh near Angus Barn. 20 degrees

The Fish.

Yep. Sleet and freezing rain mix near Angus Barn in Raleigh. There’s a thin glaze on everything.
