ATL_Militarypolice Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Got woken up by wind and rain last night. It was blowing so hard the window beside the bed was cracked and rain was hitting my face. Kind of fun to wake up to. Same thing happened to me last night too lol.

ryan1234 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I really hope we can get some active storms going this weekend across the I-85 corridor. Hopefully the wedge wont stick along to long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I really hope we can get some active storms going this weekend across the I-85 corridor. Hopefully the wedge wont stick along to long. I think we'll stay dammed up for the weekend in the western Carolinas, esp. CLT north and west. I see GSP is going for upper 50's here Saturday, which looks very high imo, both the GFS and NAM have a cold , northeast surface flow and stratiform rain, and we begin with low dewpoints, so considering how the models usually don't handle CAD too well, I won't be surprised to see some areas of the damming lee region stay close to 40 or low 40's, even around GSP to CLT. RAH is going a little colder for their zones but probably still a little too high, imo. If the rain doesn't materialize, it would be a different story. The models verbatim are highs 42 to 50 in the CAD areas of the upstate to NC., and that looks reasonable, probably closer to the lower range.

That's one thing I don't like about living here. In the winter the wedge is great for winter weather. But I hate cold rains. I either like winter weather or severe weather. LOL.

It seems lately you can't get these wedges in winter but are gauranteed to get them in the spring when you dont want them. I'd love to have some storms this weekend but it does looks like it'll be too cool for them this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacoma Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 snowshowers right now in West Asheville, just went out and couldn't believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoJoe Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 snowshowers right now in West Asheville, just went out and couldn't believe it. I hear ya'. Light Snow Temp - 29.2 Degrees Wind - 12 to 15 / gust to 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoothillsNC Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I hear ya'. Light Snow Temp - 29.2 Degrees Wind - 12 to 15 / gust to 22 The NAM gets you extremely close to snow midway and end of the event Saturday. I think the very end will changeover there. If everything were shifted just a tad south, say 75 miles, the northern Mountains of NC would be looking at a major snowfall. As it stands, the mtns of Wva,Va are in line, but will have less moisture most likely. Interesting system. And thats not the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx4life Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Low of 35 this morning...BRRRRRR...it's a little chilly.Between flip flopping wardobes and trying not to let Spring Fever hit me too hard right now (I really want to plant some flowers) I am so ready for a consistent temperature pattern.Although, I am really excited about the rain this weekend to knock out this ridiculous pollen!!

SnoJoe Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Currently 32 degrees. That will keep the bugs in check just a little. Never cleared off here so didn't go real low, only 28.4. Breezy, of course. My oldest son, a senior in high school, has a field trip to Mt. Mitchell today and he left here in shorts and a hoodie. Idiot.

Lookout Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 33 here this morning. Wanted to mention the 0z euro shows the potential for snow in the mountains day 7.5. It has a rather significant low moving through the southeast with a rather impressive area of deformation snow over the southern appalachians. Some could even reach into the high elevations of far north ga. For you nc folks, I want to call your attention to my post in robert's thread too. Freezing precip might be possible for parts of nc with major snow/ice just to the north per the 12z nam for sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowless in Carrollton Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 What the heck is going on the last few years ? This could be the 3rd straight year where Atlanta's last freeze is at least a month earlier than normal, and this year it would be nearly TWO months earlier than normal. Since 1948, the earliest "last freeze" for Atlanta was on Feb 16, 1985. The last freeze this year was Feb 12. Unbelievable. If there is a late freeze next fall, it's possible Atlanta could go almost an entire year without a freeze !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
