    The icon looks good for a long duration moderate event for the climo favored regions of the central NC Piedmont (the Icon is trash I know, but better than discussing, well... not weather)

    Considering how the GFS ensembles have a tendency not to vary too much from the op, it's encouraging to see a bunch of members with decent hits
  3. olafminesaw
    Yeah, probably just a light glaze once we get into the dry slot
  4. olafminesaw
    What a sounding. Classic sleet storm in the Triad. Going to take ages to melt this glacier
  5. olafminesaw
    A bit of a dry slot for western NC. Somewhat expected given the eastward progression of the low, but a rather stark cutoff
  6. olafminesaw
    It's crazy how big some of the pellets are too. Nearly pea sized
  7. olafminesaw
    As expected, p-type maps are not to be trusted. The majority of the freezing rain zone is falling as sleet
  8. olafminesaw
    Wow, that's the most bullish I've ever seen them at this range
  9. olafminesaw
    Yeah...it seems kgso hasn't been reporting sleet. It's like their ip key is broken or something, lol

    I appreciate your insight. Definitely just kidding around here. Hard to get excited about something 6 days away when it's currently snowing outside, but wow, who thought we'd get such a stellar pattern out of this winter
  11. olafminesaw
    Is this the new banter thread?
  12. olafminesaw
    Changeover cometh
  13. olafminesaw
    Definitely seems to be trending towards more sleet
  14. olafminesaw
    Hard to believe it will flip to sleet in a couple hours after the dewpoint dropped to 8 before onset
  15. olafminesaw
    Yeah, we've seen this play out on the models. A shift to the south initially has sometimes resulted in a more inland track. Just depends on how our pesky vortex to the North behaves
  16. olafminesaw
    If I were a betting man, I'd bet on higher sleet totals and lower qpf, leading to only .1-.2" acreation in the triad
  17. olafminesaw
    Hate to see the depth of the wedge become shallower, I think as the storm track has trended somewhat more inland. I'm starting to doubt that many will see more sleet than ZR, but it's kinda a coin flip at this point

    The air that eventually will be bleeding down into NC is pretty stout:
  19. olafminesaw
    Storm summed up in one sounding. If this ain't sleet, it sure is close
  20. olafminesaw
    More or less from S to N.
  21. olafminesaw
    Still a nice front end thump on the HRRR, FWIW for central NC
  22. olafminesaw
    A lot of that qpf falls as sleet, so Greensboro might be 2" (.2 qpf) of snow followed by 2" sleet (.6 qpf) followed by .16 zr (.3 qpf-accounting for run-off). But snow/sleet depth after compaction would only be around 3"
  23. olafminesaw
    Good rates. One can dream the long range HRRR had any validity
  24. olafminesaw
    Can you spot the wedge?
  25. olafminesaw
    Activity will pick up. We're in the in between, where models are pretty locked in, but we're not yet now casting (radar hallucinations and hyperventilating over every HRRR run). I do think the prospect of 2" of sleet is pretty exciting TBH
