  1. Summer-like afternoon storms today. Isolated downburst possible
  2. Dry as a bone and getting drier. Excited to maybe see a storm or two today and tomorrow.
  3. Looking like an extended dry period. I know those in the western part of the state will welcome it but it’s been pretty dry in the central part of the state. Saw some fire weather discussion from NWS. Thankfully at my farm in Franklin county the last rain overperformed and we got over an inch but my house in Raleigh saw less than half an inch. Nothing inspires confidence in the modeling that we’ll see that in the next 10 days.
  4. About .25" overnight with drizzle/showers continuing. Biggest rainfall in 3 weeks...
  5. Yep. Missed it again today. Going to have to re-plant I worry. Wasted several hundred $$$ of seed. Looks to be very dry too going forward for Central NC. Amazing the impeccable timing to finally stop raining as soon as it becomes beneficial.
  6. So much for the 60-80% rain forecast here today last 2 days. Not a drop looks to have jumped over us. Planted all my spring food plots at the farm in anticipation of the rain. Great!
  7. Got to 33 this morning. Might be the last 30’s we see for awhile, though I’m sure we’ll have at least another frost/freeze before mid April
  8. Brrrr. 28 this morning. Could it be the coldest morning until next fall?
  9. 0.20" in the rain bucket. 42 degrees atm. Waiting on the wind
  10. Going to be interesting to track northers extent of rain this afternoon. About like tracking a snowstorm, but not as fun. Jk. Gotta track something, right??? Don’t know temp but sun has broken out through the clouds here atm was pleasant walking into work
  11. Actually picked up much more rain than was forecast. Just shy of half an inch and it came down hard in 2 quick bouts. Tropical type downpour
  12. Any ground truth to this apparent lake effect snow off Jordan Lake this morning?
  13. Our friends in NE GA really taint the generic terrible winter across the sub forum... Thanks for nothing guys!
  14. Prolonged warmth, only 1 system to track, absolutely no front end thumps or even minimal sleet or freezing rain events, 1 advisory, constant rain and humidity... 2.75" of snow from one system that stayed on the ground for 2 days salvaged a D imo. Technically, I guess we've had worse?
  15. No measurable rain for me yesterday, surprisingly. Down to 37 this AM. Pretty gusty wind last night leaving dinner. 30-35 mph I'd guess. Beautiful winter-like day today
  16. 0.32" here with maybe another shower or two to go this morning. On top of the weekend snow melt and general wetness from last couple weeks, it will be a while before I can put any attention to my yard. It is a mud pit atm
  17. 22 this morning for the low. Coldest morning of the year here too. Probably the last morning my yard will be covered in snow this season
  18. Just did a drive through franklin county and it was absolutely beautiful up there! Definitely more snow than Raleigh. By no means a high end storm for the state but a lot of people saw a couple inches and it stuck to the trees real pretty. And it’s lasting past noon lol. A reprieve from a terrible winter that I didn’t think we’d get so it made me happy. Said I’d be happy with 2 imby and I got more than that so I’ll take that as a win. Now on to work for a half day...
  19. Agreed. Just feels good to see snow on the ground. Been Brutal.
  20. I disagree. Seems to have played out almost exactly as forecast. Lotta 2-3 in reports in the Triangle and 2in reports in Triad. Looks like snow fell all the way into far SE parts of the state. My farm in Louisburg has over 3in on the ground this morning after melting so I bet they had close to 4 in. Looks like a large area of 3-4 in reports East of here, which was right in line with 2-4 in forecast. I saw some 5 in reports sprinkled in. Only thing that didn't happen was a heavy band with 6-8 in lollipops, which I fully expected somewhere east of here, but overall it was well-forecast. Places that didn't do as well as forecast look like SE VA and extreme NE NC. CLT was never forecast to get much and same story with the upstate. I can tell you this, if the BL was a couple degrees cooler, this would have been a widespread 4-6 in storm for much of NC. We hit 2.5" and stayed there for 4 hours of steady snow once the heaviest rates moved out. It was just compensating for melting. We finished with around 2.75" depending on where you measure.
  21. Slippery streets this morning in the triangle. 27 and BEAUTIFUL out. I love overnight snows and waking up as the sun first hits it in the trees. Large area of NC has snow cover which is pretty awesome considering where we were a week ago!
  22. Little over 2.5” here. Oh what could’ve been with better BL temps. Oh well, salvaged the season, got to watch it snow for 8 hours and had a great time tracking it! It’s absolutely beautiful out. Still snowing atm but not going to amount to anything more. Congrats to all who scored today!
  23. That's what I have (not 2 but 1-1.5"), depending on where you measure. Moderate snow 32/32. Ice has formed on what had been water on my truck's windshield. We are below freezing
