  1. For verification purposes, @Lookout, my Davis Vantage Vue is currently measuring 38.2 over 24 right now IMBY. (I'm less than five miles away from the Hickory airport.) Using your linked calculator, with my current atmospheric pressure reading of 1031.2 mb, I get a wet-bulb temperature of 33 degrees. Unfortunately, that's only good enough for a nice cold rain, despite the Winter Storm Warning hoisted for my county that mentions snow/sleet accumulations up to 2 inches and ice accretion between 0.1 and 0.4 inch. I'm hoping the CAD will kick in stronger this afternoon and evening to lower my wet-bulb temperature, but right now it's a "No go" for ice.
  2. For NWS GSP's service area:
  3. ^^ That's all ice or their snow depth algorithm is all messed up. Look at the total accumulated snow from either Kuchera or non-Kuchera models for the same time.
  4. Interesting secondary snowfall event on Monday...
  5. Ummm...Who are we kidding? We wait with bated breath for every run, not just the 12Z! We would wait for the 11Z GFS with just as much anticipation if it existed. [emoji16] Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  6. Lawrence is a true freshman, not sophomore. He looked ready for NFL last night. BTW, I'm no Clemson fan, but I do like Dabo. I admire his enthusiasm for the game and his unashamed proclamations of his faith in Christ. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  7. 06Z GFS keeps all these same cities in the game and expands the impacrs to Greensboro, Burlington, Roxboro, etc. I'm liking our chances... Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  8. Looked good for Asheville, Marion, Morganton, Hickory, Wilkesboro, Winston, and other points north and west. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  9. Nice write-up from NWS GSP. They acknowledge the potential but remain cautious.

  11. Yeah, but if ND gets a shot because they are undefeated, then so should UCF. ND's schedule was not significantly more difficult than was UCF's. Also, Georgia and Ohio State would have been included. Georgia already showed they can hang with Alabama. I think OSU and all Big Ten teams are rather weak, but let em play it out in a tournament rather than having some dudes sitting around a table decide who gets in and who gets out. We would still debate snubs even with eight teams in, but I am less sympathetic to any school's complaints if they didn't finish undefeated. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  12. Notre Dame was such a farce. Nice work by Clemson. Let's expand this thing to eight teams soon. Give UCF a chance too. I guess we'll see how good they are when they match up against LSU on Tuesday. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  13. I ended up with 2.46 inches storm total IMBY. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  14. Since it's difficult to get negative snow totals, I suppose zero inches will always tie for the worst winter. [emoji16] Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  15. I'm sitting at 1.99 inches of rainfall IMBY so far today. I'm hoping to squeeze out 0.01 inch more before midnight to make it an even two inches.
  16. Since when is Durham not in central NC? I would never consider that city a part of western NC. Sent from my Alcatel 6055U using Tapatalk
  17. We finished off with 14 inches of snowfall/sleet IMBY. There were light snow showers interspersed with drizzle this morning, but nothing that amounted to much. The temp rose above freezing around 5 PM last evening, and it has yet to fall back below. It has made light work for the plows, not having to fight the frozen tundra. The back deck has diminished to 9 inches due to melting and sublimation. Tonight should be a hard freeze, though.
  18. So, I'm sitting at my table looking out at 14 inches of snowfall, and then I just see this updated WSW for my area: We're getting more tonight?! And amounts that would normally be a fantastic storm for this area are just massive icing on the cake! I'm totally geeking out here.
  19. 14 inches now in Hickory! Had to switch to the yardstick! Light snow/sleet mix at the moment. Sent from my Alcatel 6055U using Tapatalk

  23. 11 inches just to your east in Hickory. Pouring down with special weather statement for heavy snow for next hour. Sent from my Alcatel 6055U using Tapatalk
  24. 11 inches in Hickory now! Just got special weather statement for very heavy snow for next hour! Crazy! Sent from my Alcatel 6055U using Tapatalk
