Broad high pressure to our north will help to lock the cold air mass
into the region. As a result, the mountains will be predominately
snow through the event, except perhaps during the onset of
precipitation. Further east into the Piedmont it`s more up in the
air. It seems snow will prevail though north of I-40 (although a mix
is possible at times) with more of a split between I-85 and I-40,
with rain prevailing south of I-85 (although rain may mix with snow
at times overnight even here). A slight northward trend in the model
guidance suggests that a weak warm nose may press into the region
sometime Friday night. This will likely act to increase
precipitation rates and possibly lead to a narrow strip of
sleet/freezing rain. Snow accumulations of several inches are
possible across many mountain locations with this event (especially
near the escarpment to southern mountains). Light accumulations are
also in play east of the mountains, mainly from the foothills to I-
40 corridor, although can`t rule out light accumulations south to
the I-85 corridor. That all being said this event is still several
days out and winter storms are notoriously hard to predict, so stay
tuned!
