Anyone wanna bet that after this dry, cold spell we'll start to get some moisture moving through...and then it won't be cold enough?! A classic NC frustrating winter.
Man this forum is pretty dead considering we have a chance at a little wintry mix early in the season...I know the Triangle isn't looking at much potential, hoping I can squeeze a little something out of this system here in Hillsborough. I'm a little less than an hour south of Danville.
Humberto looks to be trending stronger than expected so far, and track is trending more towards Bermuda...if the trends continue, how will this impact the track of the other storm? Interesting to watch it play out...
I never like to hear the word "stall" when talking about a hurricane approaching the NC/SC coast. That's always the most catastrophic scenario. Rain, rain, more rain.
My worry for the NC/SC coast is that this could creep up on them quickly. It's not even a tropical storm yet and might not become a hurricane until getting really close to NC/SC. If it moves fast and has a round of rapid intensification, this could happen just before landfall. This is not gonna be some long tracker we're following for a week.. situations are gonna develop in real time.
My “zone area forecast” from NWS for Hillsborough had been the same for about 24 hours, but just now changed to 2-4 inches for Wednesday night overnight.
No expert but with all the runs and met forecasts (tv and nwc) combined, I feel like we’re gradually coming to consensus of a 1-3 event almost statewide with a small portion 4-6, most likely the NE quadrant of NC.
I’ve been thinking about this too. Was thinking of driving to the coast to try to see some decent snow. Fortunately wiggle room time is dwindling. I think we get snow at the coast.
I’m not mad at all about any weather models. In fact I feel like the most trusted (Euro) has called this a coastal storm the whole way. I’m just more frustrated with central NC getting nothing out of all this cold air. Unbelievable.
