I give another win to the models! They said at day 7 Tuesday night wouldn't be a non event.

They've done a fine job of telling us at day 7 its not gonna snow instead of day 3 this year. And the only storm we got inside 6 days panned out. I'm speaking for our part of the country only. Haven't paid attention to the overall verification of them.

12z NAM-3km showing a period of snow Tuesday morning in interior SE NC. I dont expect any accumulation outside of MAYBE a dusting on elevated surface/grassy areas.D00n-9-XQAAuf64.jpg

I'm watching this for my self to see if i can get a handful of flakes if i'm lucky as the trend has been for the precip to be a little further north here in ga. But knowing the way this winter has gone, the more painful runs that keep the band of precip just a county or two to the south will probably be the ones that verify. (euro) Icon has come a little further north this morning though, as well as the wrf suite.  Probably my last shot at seeing anything this year unless something strange happens. If i manage to get more than a few minutes of rain/snow mix at 36 then this will be the highlight of the winter here. :lol:

NE parts of NE SC and SE NC just might see a surprise event. Even a dusting would be a win.  

yep, also think the same could happen here in ga..especially between columbus to  macon north/south of atlanta/athens. Models have consistently shown it cold enough on the northern fridge/back edge for snow. Surface temps are initially an issue the further east you go but temps fall to near freezing early  south of atlanta so a light dusting isn't out of the question in these areas. It's the long range hrrr so take it with a grain of salt but latest  says maybe a little more than just a dusting in a tiny area..several hours of light snow between atlanta and macon with temps at or below freezing and a narrow band of more than 0.10 liquid. Temps start out already near freezing when it begins too. 

Would be nice if the models have been underestimating precip all along. The other day where we had a long line of showers/rain training over the same area for quite a distance (across the entire state) and not a single model  picked up on it, including all the high resolution ones (didn't even show up on the simulated  composite radar).   Was thinking at the time, why can't this ever happen when it's cold. Would be nice if they missed this one by that much.

If a single flake falls here in SW Wake County it will be the most snow have had all season.

this would keep the winter for being a total shutout for a lot of folks.

Yes, this is called for in My Local Forecast, hope to see some "Token Flakes"..

RAH late morning update.

At 
the same time, a low amplitude perturbation -- and saturation/ 
precipitation aloft-- will migrate through the base of an ern CONUS 
trough, and into the Carolinas overnight-early Tue. The foregoing 
lower level cloudiness may allow for more of that precipitation 
aloft, related to the upr perturbation, to reach the surface over SC 
and srn/sern NC; and we have introduced a larger area of light 
measurable precipitation from the srn Piedmont to the Sandhills and 
srn and cntl Coastal Plain for late tonight-early Tue to account for 
that increasing probability. A marginally above freezing boundary 
layer will likely cause any snow to melt as it falls, though if 
rates are high enough for 2-3 hrs, that shallow above freezing could 
be melted out and allow for a very light dusting to occur primarily 
along and southeast of a line from Fayetteville to Goldsboro (ie. 
mainly Sampson Co.). More on this potential this afternoon...
