We have a favorite pattern for sure. We just need the energy not to miss north and south. I didn’t mean OR I meant AND because if this one misses, it’s going to be south haha.
I don’t have access to it but apparently NextWeather 2.0 also shows storm potential. Doing this an hour after the huge snowstorm that turned into some sleet just got finished with is extra sick, which is why I love it
It’s been said already, but the cold air is so cold at the surface that it wreaked havoc on forecasts. I wouldn’t be surprised if Winston-Salem gets some of the squall line as some pouring sleet
Latest HRRR is similar to previous runs, but these models are mostly sticking to this idea of some sort of freezing rain squall line coming through at least western North Carolina tomorrow evening. It looks weird and not right. Would be interesting to see if it verifies.
This freezing rain squall line that has become kind of model consensus is really weird looking, if it verifies, it will be high rates at least which is actually better with ice than just the drizzle
It is currently 41° in Winston-Salem and as warm as it’s gonna be for at least a week. Enjoy these last few hours of the 40s if you live in the Triad because you’re not gonna see them again for a while
WFMY 2 in house model has a very brief period of snow for the Triad with around a 6 PM onset and then changeover to freezing rain at 7 AM Sunday morning. Tim Buckley sounded very sober in his 8 o’clock update. Not a tone I’ve heard a lot from him. Definitely sobers me up too thinking about the storm.
Feels like not so much the calm before the storm but the deep breath before the storm because I’m old enough to remember 2002 pretty well and it sucked. And I think that’s the best analog here. I also think some posters here have not emotionally recovered from the rug pull this week lol
I’m in Winston-Salem. I fully expect to never make it above freezing even though Raleigh might briefly and that the sleet will hold on longer than most people are forecasting. Although I do think WFMY 2 probably has a good handle on it
