  1. Got a 7am flight out of Greensboro Friday morning. Might need to start hedging that bet…?
  2. Wondering the over/under for snow falling before sleet in Triad. Not accumulation but time. Would take the under 2.5 hours
  3. Already gusty NE winds here. Does not feel like before a snow…hard to explain…
  4. If watching the CC mode on a radar app tomorrow, will the sleet line be coming S-N or more from SE-NW for NC Piedmont?
  5. Man if you’re getting .5 ZR or even half that, then we’re partying like 1822 here.
  6. I just moved from DC area to Winston in 2017...
  7. I have only seen sleet accumulate more than a coating once, that was in mid-90s in northern Virginia. Surface air temps were in low 20's entire time, got about 4" sleet. I don't think we'll see quite that much here, but could come close.
  8. You know something has gone sideways when storm thread SILENT less than 72 hours from GO-time. Cant wait to lose power and skate down my driveway Sunday afternoon.
  9. Are the surface temps as important with this one? I mean they always are I know...but more about the warm nose and temps aloft?
  10. I asked this question in SE forum...but is this the type of setup where Winston/Greensboro, NC would do about same as DC snow-wise? Trading latitude for elevation and distance from water... Where would have the better chance of let's say 6-8" SN before mixing?
  11. If it’s snow you’re rooting for, would you rather be in Triad or DC for this storm? My hunch is Triad based on elevation and particular storm track?
  12. Feeling now 50/50 or better to lose power (ice) here in Winston. Would be second time in two weeks after the wind/rain/snow extravaganza. Fun times. Also feels like pure snowstorm will be well west of 77 and ++ elevation. ~800 to 1,200 feet maybe WAA thump but quickly sleet/ice fest. Nothing like 25 degrees and pingers.
  13. If that means cold rain in Triad sign me up. Versus ZR.
  14. Any chance sleet could over-perform in Winston? I know soundings are trash. Even if for first thump.
  15. I’ve only seen significant sleet accumulation once before, around 4 inches. Was in Prince William Co. VA along I-95 in late 90s. Temps were mid 20s. Would vote this 10/10 instead of ZR.
  16. I’m in Winston just NW of downtown near Wake Forest campus. Still just rain so far no mixing.
  17. Nothing falling here in Winston. 48 degrees.
  18. More of the same here in Triad. White rain couple hours.
  19. Was at friends in Clemmons, drove back home to 27106 NW Winston. Just a little dusting here but more than last two “events”. Sad.
  20. If that gradient near us panned out, how cool would a chase be from Winston to like Mount Airy? Wild.
  21. Seeing as we only had a trace here in Winston last night, sign me up for a half inch with initial WAA band Sat night if it manifests. Don’t care if all rain Sunday.
  22. Model mayhem inside 36-48 hours. Fun times.
  23. Moved from DC to Winston 3 years ago. Had many solid busts up there. This is first nice busto here. NW Winston near Wake campus and nothing. Couple bouts of moderate flakes no accumulation. Appreciate all the Mets I follow, no ones fault.
