    Last little burst of the evening for CLT it looks like. What a fun band this was.
  2. SnowDeac
    Still ripping fatties near South Park. Have a solid half inch from this backside band. Radar looks to be breaking up some unfortunately, but this might be my favorite little snow since 2014.
  3. SnowDeac
    This is a legit moderate snow now. Chicken feathers. And radar looks pretty good SW… check in other CLT folks!!!

    An incredibly peaceful light snow. Made a fire pit back. Getting heavier now in CLT. Enjoying a Yellowstone bourbon.
  5. SnowDeac
    And just like that it’s snowing lightly again near South Park.
  6. SnowDeac
    Looks like they should, though the northern part of the metro should do better (as always).

    Snowing in Rock Hill and Chester again. Hope it gets to CLT proper.

    All freezing rain/rain now near South Park. Good amount of run off so we’re very close to 32 if not above it. Point/click says 1-2 inches more of snow before the storm is done, but I’m not seeing it.

    Just checked the rain gauge. 2.25 of mostly compacted sleet just south of South Park. Mostly ZR now with some icing occurring. A few limbs creaking with the wind. Do we think a deform band will form and swing through? Or will dry air take over soon?

    Brad P honking about a switchover to snow this afternoon/evening as well despite models not showing much in the way of organized precip or deform bands. Good to hear.

    Congrats to those getting the goods. Mostly all sleet here just south of South Park in Charlotte. Decent covering and windy but disappointing as usual to be so close to a better storm. Back to bed.
  12. SnowDeac
    Very light snow, but all snow just started in South Park, CLT. Good to see some flakes. Not sure I'll be able to sleep now though!

    Solid looking returns coming through both Greenville and Spartanburg at the moment. Ground truth?
  14. SnowDeac
    Low deepening and starting a much more northerly jog, as expected. The mountains are just going to get hammered with this amount of moisture. Wouldn't be surprised if someone ended up with 20 inches. Really wish we headed up to Beech, as we considered.

    Couple things to note on the short range models for CLT proper. 1) The HRRR shows a solid 2-3 hour initial burst of snow. I’m guessing that’s overdone and much will fall as sleet, but something to note. 2) Pretty much all the meso models show an eventual changeover to plain rain. Better than freezing rain. 3) The 3K Nam shows a fun little burst of snow (possibly a deform band?) rolling through fairly late tomorrow evening for an hour or two. Also continues through the state and affects the triangle.

    Based on recent trends (and the GSP forecast), I'm thinking CLT flips to plain rain well before the precip ends. Will help significantly with ice issues, though a lot may have already fallen. The WAA almost always scours out the cold air quicker than progged around the metro, even at the surface.
  17. SnowDeac
    Trending towards almost all ZR. I'm guessing about a half inch, which will be pretty devastating. Though, honestly, I also won't be surprised to turn over to plain rain eventually which will limit our issues big time. Might get a quick inch or two of snow/sleet before the changeover. Going to be depressing as always watching the correlation coefficient radar FLY up from SC through NC.
  18. SnowDeac
    Yep, I was in the same boat. GSP had Charlotte proper getting 9-11 inches. We got like 2.1 inches of pure slop. There was a similar mid-December bust with almost the exact same setup/output around that time as well.
  19. SnowDeac
    Surprising. Feel like we got a ton of sleet storms in Raleigh growing up. I remember one in particular in February of 2006, I believe, that was 2.5-3 inches of solid concrete in N. Raleigh.
  20. SnowDeac
    Good lord the NAM is awful. Misses almost everyone with any decent backend snow as well.
  21. SnowDeac
    Unless the high is weaker than projected and/or retreating, I think it would be very surprising to see the low plow into the wedge. Not that it couldn't happen, just surprising.
  22. SnowDeac
    Checking for the first time this winter. Always great to have something to track and see so many familiar (and incredibly insightful) names. Now I'm just kicking myself for moving just south and east of South Park in CLT vs up towards my in-laws on the NW side of Lake Norman. This is a classic storm where they'll probably get double the snow, just 23 miles away!
  23. SnowDeac
    Yeah, looks like now more extreme N/NE NC and SE VA, but rates look pretty damn impressive.
  24. SnowDeac
    Sounds like an awesome chase. I happened to be in SLC for work and then up in Snowbird/Alta to ski in late February when they got 98 inches in 7 days. Definitely the most snow I've ever seen. The road up the canyon was closed for almost three days and the resorts in full "interlodge" mode, where you're not allowed to go outside due to avalanche risk. Needless to say, the skiing was pretty decent after that.
  25. SnowDeac
    Yep. Completely agree. Typically, the more I watch/follow a certain TV met, the less I end up liking them. We'll just say that has happened with two of the more prominent mets in Raleigh and now Charlotte over the years. East is the man, though. He needs to be bumped up to the big leagues so us non-Spectrum customers can tune in.
