During the lull, I just want to say how epic the 18z suite was.

Snow in Cary

35 degrees, 0.8 BAC

No, I believe it is ISW criteria PLUS the presence of snow and sleet that upgrades that to a WSW. I could be wrong tho.

I think they did the WSW instead of an ISW because of the presence of snow and sleet at onset.

JMA gives the Triangle to the NW 1.5-1.8" qpf it's quiet in here
