packbacker Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 80% snow here and laying on car tops. coming down at a mod pace. Where in Cary are you? By Harrison? Still rain here in Apex, due west of RDU about 10 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wx4life Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm so HAPPY you guys are finally getting some much needed "white gold". Temps have dropped to 45 after being in the mid 50's today. The wind is howling out there. Can't wait to see pics!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Snowing in Knightdale now.. Just Started. I know the Brickster is happy to see some flakes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm not sure what they're seeing at WRAL. Maybe an in house model...don't know. I do know the RAP and other short term models have been highlighting a band across the Triad all day. It does make me nervous being right on the edge, but it does look like a new band is taking shape further to the northwest (or am I radar hallucinating?).

HKY_WX Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Where in Cary are you? By Harrison? Still rain here in Apex, due west of RDU about 10 miles. I'm near harrison exit on I40. Looks like it's pretty much all snow here now, just light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OpAck Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Amazing how the temps plumetted. It was 48.6 degrees on my home (NE Raleigh) thermometer at 3pm...it's now 34.9 and it's slowly changing over to snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaleighWx Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 21z 15 hour total precip. Notice the 0.5 to 0.75 qpf band near Triad. Maybe that is what Greg was referring to, Dont think it is accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It does make me nervous being right on the edge, but it does look like a new band is taking shape further to the northwest (or am I radar hallucinating?). Still all rain here just south of you. Amazing how sharp the cutoff is. Congrats to all who are seeing snow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 RAH just updated all counties NE of Wake to 2", possible as much as 3". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherNC Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 curiously, I was just looking at the Regional NEXRAD Radar,, Seems the rn/sn line has just crossed the I-95 South & eastwards by about 2 counties... Lots of good tools on the SPC meso page, you can see the area of 700mb fronto working through the triangle currently. Also, critical thickness is kinda lagging, but should crash quickly here in the next hour as the surface low is exiting around Cape Lookout. Also see a slug of 850mb moisture convergence working into the Sandhills. Best guess is NE NC, Ahoskie area, for more than an inch or two. Based on radar, my optimism for 1-2" at PGV is decreasing. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/viewsector.php?sector=17# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC_WX10 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Depends. What's it showing? its showing 4in-6in for me and I don't think 2in is plausible based on the radar. But what do I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreensboroWx Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 It does make me nervous being right on the edge, but it does look like a new band is taking shape further to the northwest (or am I radar hallucinating?).

wakegrrl Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Mix of snow and rain in western Apex, WeatherBug showing 32. Looks like about 2/3 snow 1/3 rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Thanks for the post, RaleighWx. That is interesting. Yeah, the radar is really lighting up between GSO and ROA...we shall see Indeed. You and I are on the western side of Greensboro (I'm a few miles east of the airport). I just hope it doesn't miss us a few miles to the east and we get flurries while downtown gets pounded. The cutoff is brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherNC Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Happy for everyone starting to see a coating, nothing has been able to stick in Durham though, not even on cars. A bit surprised honestly. I just spoke to my brother in law who is near Duke, mixing, but nothing was sticking as it was mostly rain prior to. Durham appears to have gotten the shaft as the back edge is working through. NAM did a pretty good job picking up on this band which is currently setting up ivo 95.
