With temps crashing into 20s I have a feeling this gets an advisory for a decent chunk of NC due to travel issues Thursday morning even if accumulations are light
This is accurate lol. This will be one I’d consider a bonus event- if you get snow great, if not oh well. Not gonna make up for the wake county miss even if we got the best band but at same point this could have a few surprises and maybe someone gets a significant localized snowfall
First true “thaw” day in well over a week. 50 degrees, all snow is gone from sun, working on the last of it in shaded areas now. My strategically reinforced and shade placed snow piles have some staying power though
February snow generally sucks unless it’s a coastal with heavy rates or at night. Even last years storm didn’t stick on roads until sunset even though it was in the mid 20s
This should be a fun one to radar watch tomorrow evening. Someone could get a pretty decent band out of this and some decent accumulation, but probably won’t where know until it sets up. Think anyone in northern half of NC has a chance
It’s going to be extremely band-dependent with isolated accumulation but whoever gets a band can probably do 2 maybe 3”. Agreed, think border counties/Southern Va best shot. Will not be widespread accumulation anywhere
Lumberton below zero?!? WOW
We bottomed out at 24.2 last night. I’m assuming clouds moved in early and cleared out before moving back in, some pretty wild spikes and dips from 7 pm through 5 am
Happy for you! That band was great but we only had it for 1 hour. Eastern side of county did better. Actually made it worse for those of us who got shafted by it
Im f*ing exhausted but lets run this back. Thought we had a break from model watching, this winter has been nuts. Raleigh needs the 18z euro like peanut butter needs jelly
This is a little different than the cold chasing moisture event a couple weeks ago. In this case the front has already passed through and there’s a secondary LP developing in the colder air. The airmass isn’t nearly as cold as the last couple we’ve used and it’s always delayed over the mountains but I wouldn’t call this a “classic” case of cold chasing moisture
