This was a serious question....can anyone tell me? closer to the mountains I’m assuming, so cold air piles up quicker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much rain anymore in it, mostly sleet. Bet we start flipping to snow west to east around 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precip got there sooner, cooling the column quicker. And the CAD normally pushes down that way going much further south as you go west of Charlotte. Though for now the CAD has more to go as the models showed the big push tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m less than a mile from Union Meck border near 74. Ran to store earlier and there was a lot of wet snowflakes hitting windshield. Much harder to tell standing outside though. Heavier precip brings more mixing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So weird, was out and about in Southpark all afternoon, and saw no sleet. Don’t even think we have that now. Went outside to check the smoker and sounded a little ‘pingy’ But didn’t really see any sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah yea not pretty snow for sure. 925’s have retreated some but the wind direction and speed looks to be picking up some so I anticipate those crashing soon. HRRR earlier didn’t have us really in the mix until about 11 pm so things look good still. If we were supposed to be getting snow right now I’d be worried.

Had a couple brief times when there was enough to get some sitting on back porch table, but nothing to talk about. I ran to the store around 6:00 and it looked like rain but you could tell they were really wet snow flakes hitting the windshield and had a few bouncy sleet pellets. Sloppy mess as of now and has been. Shouldn’t be too far from more of a change though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait until it transitions from fascinating to completely psycho! It directly ties to seeing "fatties" ripping down sideways during something called a crushjob. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burrel2 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Left my inlaws house at 3000 feet on the nc/sc border at hwy 178. They live on the west facing side of the mountain and had only gotten about an inch of snow with a temp of 33. Drove 1/4 mile down the road to the east side of the slope and there was 4 inches on the ground at 31 degree's and it was absolutely ripping,(at a lower elevation). I guarantee you that location is at 7 or 8 inches by now and still ripping. At 2700' on hwy 178 at the divide there was about 2 inches on the ground and ripping when we came through an hour and half ago. When we dropped below 2000' it switched to a white rain with no snow on the ground. Continued like that all the way back to Clemson where it's currently 37 and miserable.
