  1. I will agree with another poster the other day that this pattern is not helping many of us in NC and SC. All we can do is wait a few weeks and hope February and maybe the first week of March will save us. We still have plenty of time so I have faith that February will deliver the goods. So let’s hope for a repeat of February 2004 [emoji846] if you know you know [emoji1303] .
  2. I was living in Highpoint at the time. First and last time I experienced thunder snow. It was a night to remember! .
  3. Flurries currently flying in the air in Brown Summit, NC. Not much, but at least it’s something. .
  4. The town of Perry (6,800) is going to have a rough day ahead. I feel sorry for those people. Looks like their going to get the worst side of it.
  5. It’s a large prison directly in the path. I wonder what there procedures are for something like this. I know those buildings are built well, but does make you wonder. .
  6. Something I will add… over the years the southeast forum has had an exodus of users to other weather forums. The landscape today is a lot different than what it looked like 3-4 years ago. I’m not sure what happened, but a lot left. .
  7. Does it look good right now for snow chances in the southeast….. no, but it’s no reason to throw in the towel yet. Remember in March of 1960 it snowed 3 Wednesdays in a row. Also the 1993 Superstorm was in March. I would At least wait until March 1st before throwing in the towel. If it’s March 1st and the models are showing nothing in the future then I agree it’s over. .
  8. WWA issued for a lot of counties in the Piedmont.
  9. 15 miles NE of Greensboro 32 degrees and moderate snow. Actually coming down at a nice rate!! Currently 3/4 inch accumulation
  10. 15 miles NE of Greensboro 34 degrees and light snow. Maybe an 1/8 inch on the ground. I saw on NWS Raleighs Facebook page that snow is falling in a lot of areas where the radar looks empty. Says the radar is not catching stuff under 10,000 feet.
  11. Local Mets in the Piedmont Triad are calling for around .25inch of ice. That’s not great, but not severe. some of these models are spitting out crazy numbers. What is y’all’s honest opinion? If you live in the triad should you be prepared to lose power?
  12. could be a little stormy this afternoon for the central/eastern Carolina peeps. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH OUTLINE UPDATE FOR WS 58 NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 200 PM EDT SAT MAR 27 2021 SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 58 IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 800 PM EDT FOR THE FOLLOWING LOCATIONS NCC001-003-005-023-025-027-033-035-037-057-059-063-065-067-069- 077-081-083-085-097-101-105-109-123-125-127-135-145-151-157-159- 167-169-171-181-183-185-191-193-195-197-280000- /O.NEW.KWNS.SV.A.0058.210327T1800Z-210328T0000Z/ NC .

  13. An amazing storm! I was living in High Point at the time. Heavy snow with thunder. A magical night I will never forget.
  14. 31.5/31.2 wind has picked up a little in the past 15 minutes. NE 7mph. Light freezing rain currently. 15 miles NE of Greensboro. Here comes round 2 let’s see what happens tonight.
  15. I think going forward it’s going to be how much Ice is left in the trees when round 2 comes in. The HRRR has precip moving in tonight all the way until daybreak. The next 4 hours is crucial for how much melting occurs in the northern counties. currently 33 degrees 15 miles NE of Greensboro
  16. I understand what everybody is saying, but Raleigh is still saying a second wave is coming later today and could be .15-.25 additional accumulation. I still think it’s to early to call a bust for the border counties. They posted the latest graphics on Facebook. I hope it’s a bust, but still should proceed with caution in some areas.
  17. 36/27 Winds NE 5mph Cloudy. 15 miles NE of Greensboro.
  18. If we were to compare this to past events what are we looking at? I know each event is different, but I’m curious. For example if you live in the Piedmont Triad could this be as bad as 2002? I consider 2002 to be the benchmark for ice storms.
  19. 15 miles NE of Greensboro. 31.8 degrees close to 1/3 inch ice accrual still have power amazingly. Everyone around me has no power according to Duke energy. Fingers crossed! update power is flicking
  20. 3:00am update 15 miles NE of Greensboro 30.9 current temp. Walked outside measured almost 1/4 inch of ice. Starting to hear limbs break in the distance. Good luck fellow Triad peeps we got a long day ahead. Still no WSW from Raleigh
  21. Current observation from Brown Summit. 30 degrees light freezing rain. Radar looks like it’s filling in nicely to the southwest. I have a feeling it’s gonna be dark torrommow in the Triad.
  22. 15 miles NE of Greensboro. Currently sitting at 31.5 with ice still in the trees from this morning. I just came back from Burlington and it was no ice in the trees from what I saw.
  23. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I just looked at the 12z 12k Nam on tropical tidbits and it showed just rain for most of NC for the Saturday morning event.
