Installed some garden lights this afternoon and even though the temperature shot up to 41, it was difficult to get the stakes all the way down. Hopefully that’s a good sign for accumulation. I’d like to make the most out of the initial burst of snow that I can.
-
My wet bulb is 34. Not optimal.
-
Made it up to around 39 and clouds are rolling in thick in Burke. Filtered sunshine through high clouds for now but I can see a lower deck in the distance.
-
Were going to torch without some cloud cover soon
-
5” in Mt Airy is bullish. I’d think more sleet would cut that down but then again, maybe it stays on the colder trend.
-
In-situ cads seem to always underperform but I also can’t recall the last time I saw an ice storm signal like this.

Thread launched

Canadian sticking to its guns. Verbatim it would be an inch of frz rain on the i40 corridor from Asheville to the triad and just north of the triangle. Sleet fest just north of there.
-
Weird. Looks a little warmer at the surface but way more ice this run on the 3K. Would love to see it trend towards sleet and a touch of snow, but if my only option is 31 and rain, I’ll pass and take 33 and rain.
-
A dry slot could be deadly for the escarpment. It rarely works out to be completely dry. With the upslope flow, that’s a recipe for drizzle/light frz rain in 30-31 temps.
-
inch of snow, inch of sleet and a quarter inch of ice. Snow miser sandwich.
-
Disappointing honestly. I’d gladly trade in these paltry chances and seasonal temps for temps pushing 80 and golf.
-
Cash me out for winter! Hope we have some severe weather to track soon.
-
If it’s only a shot at ice, I’d rather it be a cold rain.
-
I literally thought the same thing yesterday watching the model runs come in. We were too fortunate with that storm! It’s almost as if we used up all of our good-will with Mother Nature for the foreseeable future when she decided to gift us with 1-2 ft. I still look back at that event thread and reminisce .
-
Kinda surprised the CAD didn’t have a stronger signal given the dewpoints below zero in the NE.
-
Euro says not so fast! Still would like to see that high a further south, but I’m not going to let global thermals for CAD sway me 100+ hours out.
-
Euro and GFS both show CAD but are wildly different on placement of the high. Going to be interesting to see which caves.
-
Really hope Sunday’s storm pulls through. Being in the one small gap of the state that’s missing out on tonight’s potential (Burke) is a tough pill to swallow after the debacle a few weeks with the last big storm. Granted...I think there are going to be some broken hearts down east, based on the NAM. It was the only model to raise the red flag on the last storm.
-
Should’ve clarified. For my back yard it is.
-
Almost glad I’m in the foothills snow hole on the model runs. I was burnt a few weeks ago miserably in a similar setup.
-
Not to mention that the globals may be on the warm side for the CAD
-
Sunday is a really nice system for those in the western half of NC on the overnight run of the euro.... temps below freezing for the duration as well.
-
On the bright side, the pattern isn’t looking quite as bad as advertised coming up.
