I would keep an eye on the precip field the next couple hours.  Models like the RAP have it really consolidating and tightening up, bringing most of the precip closer to shore and not interior NC much at all.

The precip field is already more expansive to the North especially and somewhat to the west compared to what short term models showed for this time frame.

Now, it could be the virga is so expansive that most are under virga the whole storm and see nothing and the models precip field more accurately depicts where it will actually fall and accumulate.

Will be very interesting to watch for sure.

hey, fellow stallings guy!  Im afraid we're gonna be under virga the entire storm....or atleast the part of the storm that affects us, which is like an hour long, lol.  Too much dry air

Yea I doubt we see anything other than some rogue flurries if a band breaks off and moves through here.  That was more meant for others to the east of here.

Downeastnc, the other crazy part about what you posted is the low placement.  I overlayed the first low with much more precip and it is quite a bit further east than the second image.  Not often we see a low move 100 miles west when we want it to move west, but the precip then moves 100 miles east at the same time...?

The snow has just moved in over my house.  Only 5000 feet to go.  It's a race against the clock!

Atleast we don't have to worry about temps for once.  Don't get to say that often. 

Think the RAP is doing a little better then HRRR...I hope.

Yeah good graphic, all info points to a monster bomb off the SE coast and that's rare hard to imagine it doesn't crush central and eastern NC

Latest HRRRRRRR continues to trend slower and more westward with the low.  No longer dry for Wake.  May look slightly better than the last run, precip-wise, if you can believe that. :bag: :weenie:

Maybe if you let the system develop as it bombs over the afternoon rather than reacting to ever model like it's the end of days you'll feel less of a need to obsess. Models are only telling one story right now, and the jet is making a symphony.

Maybe, but obsessing is more fun.  Thanks for the tip, though. ;)

HRRRRRRR is keying in on a south-north strip of heavy totals from Pamlico Sound into Tidewater. Not complaining, nearly a foot on the ground and some more to come at hr 18. Plus, that's 10:1 ratio.

Very happy after today's runs! AKQ went from 4-6" last night to 8-12" at noon update.
