sarcean Posted January 9, 2025 Share Posted January 9, 2025 Or should i say snow -> lots of sleet -> freezing rain/ice that is going to a mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted January 9, 2025 Share Posted January 9, 2025 We’re 24 hours out and I have no idea what we will end up with. Snow streak ends likely but I just want enough to take my daughter sledding Saturday morning. NWS doesn’t think that’s likely 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamblinRed Posted January 9, 2025 Share Posted January 9, 2025 FWIW, here is a snowmap from NWS. Some pretty good totals just north of Dallas.

Regan Posted January 9, 2025 Share Posted January 9, 2025 RAH can say what they want and ride the ride but the mets on tv etc are still saying up to 2 with localized 3. Also Wake County chose a 3hr early release. I heard most of the board opposed it and wanted to close. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m at a loss to understand the sudden change. How long until the b word gets used? Or am I wrong? You posted this two different times. Please don’t do that. If someone is going to reply they will see the one post. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWY316wx Posted January 9, 2025 Share Posted January 9, 2025 30 minutes ago, purduewx80 said: Temps aloft aren't going to verify cold with the strong LLJ, but surface winds probably will with the damming setup. Northern Gwinnett is likely to be front and center for the worst impacts from the ice storm. Yes, there will be snow longer there, but it will almost certainly switch over to FZRA for the duration. I am 15 miles East of North Gwinnett and expecting the CAD / ICE to be banging on us pretty good. That MOG / Hamilton Mill area seems to get really iced up good in Wedge events. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they call for three inches and get six, people go outside and make snowmen. Yep, they lean conservative. After getting blasted a few times so would you. 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regan Posted January 9, 2025 Share Posted January 9, 2025 Yeah and we all should be used to seeing the sliding of totals from release to release anyway. Nothing new. They can still up it too in theory. They did already yesterday. Heck, WRAL have several inch maps floating now and it’s purposeful. Like he just said, people get mad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping the fingers crossed (all we can do at this point). https://www.weather.gov/source/crh/snowmap.html We have continued to be more wintery mix and I am @ 30 miles South or so from most of those spots (sound familiar?). That said, there is still a lot more moisture and the TX forum folks think the heaviest is still yet to come. We shall see since the event is expected to last till midday tomorrow. will report in again in a few hours. will check back in the early evening 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
