mrdaddyman Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I don't care what the HRRR or Greg's in-house model says. Looking at the radar that has precip that is quickly dissipating from West to East tells me something totally different. Don't see how it can build back West enough to give my area 5 hours of snow.

WinstonSalemArlington Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 NWS RAH: 7:15 PM update: It appears that our worst-case scenario forecast from briefings earlier today & yesterday has materialized as we are getting 3+ inch snow reports from areas southwest of Raleigh. As such we have expanded our winter storm warning & increased snowfall totals #ncwx https://t.co/JddvmYLKJt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know better than to question RAH. I just wonder what they are seeing here to come up with those totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's total snow 4PM to 7AM tomorrow. The snow hole created the lower amounts depicted above. BTW... the snow hole is now a butterfly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The band sw of us has already produced 3-5", we will not get 2-3". We won't see an inch in the majority of Wake Co. Maybe the far SE part and maybe the far NW part once the coastal get's cranking.

You're looking good where you're at. I got a feeling Greenville will remember this for a long time. 3 minutes ago, Solak said: That's total snow 4PM to 7AM tomorrow.

I should have known that could be a factor. Now we just need to get rid of that stupid butterfly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno man that snow hole fills in and that SW band merges with this influx of moisture from the coastal working in....I think you guys are good for 2-3" probably easily....this radar loop should be encouraging you guys.. https://radar.weather.gov/ridge/radar.php?rid=RAX&product=N0R&overlay=11101111&loop=yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Well didnt get the dusting I wanted in Danville.. even though Reidsville and GSO managed one..

packbacker Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Looks like far western Wake may get an inch but eastern Wake looks hosed. Unfortunately that probably means no school tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Going to get completely blanked here. It doesn’t look like the first real snowflake will fall here. Radar falling apart upstream. I mean the band to the west will rotate through around midnight, but it will be falling apart when it does. It’s very sad and disappointing. Just a little bit of snow falling from the sky is apparently too much to ask for anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
