HKY_WX Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Pretty wild to see FRAM numbers that high. You can assume if we're getting 1.5ish QPF, that 1 inch is in the form of ZR and the rest sleet. Which means maybe an inch to 2 of sleet and an inch of ice on top. Pretty wild and devastating. If that were to happen, would likely be up there on the top 5 Icestorms of all time around northern Ga/N SC/NC. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrasher Fan Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Below is hour 90 of the 0z GFS and EURO. Both still not connected on the strength of the HPs to the north thus the difference in strengths of the CADs. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
85snowline Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Why is everyone sold on no snow for NC? and I don’t care about trends or what the models say. With so many pieces to this puzzle there’s no reason to throw in the towel. Maybe that’s my inner child speaking, but have a little hope. Come tomorrow night, if things are as sh”::! as they are right now model wise then I’ll concede with the rest of you.! :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don’t know what we were thinking. We’re not in Pensacola where they get 8”-10” of all snow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddy1987 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Hope to God those ZR totals do not verify. I mean even half of that is absolutely devastating with surface temps that low. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeDeeWx Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Newbie. Am I correct in that if this latest Euro verifies this will be a very light and undisruptive ice event for most of SC? Upstate notwithstanding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have seen this morning both the Euro and the GFS do smash the upstate. An inch or 2 of snow, 2 or 3 inches of sleet (the combo of these 2 equates to approx just over an inch of liquid equivalent) with the balance being freezing rain (anywhere from 3/4 of an inch up to well over an inch). 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I assume he is looking at the ZR totals for that region. on that particular map it's not all that bad. However, there is plenty of time for that to change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question is this was showing an 1"+ of freezing rain for the top half of the state up until 12-18 hours ago and now it appears it's just the upstate forecast to get significant ice. I said "most" of SC in my initial question regarding drastic change in accumulation for the better (less). Just wanted to make sure I'm looking at the map correctly and it's nothing egregious outside of upstate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDawg Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Feels like a good time to share this with the type of ice accumulation being talked about. Unfortunately winds look to get quite gusty during the height of the freezing rain as well. I'm praying for as much sleet as possible now, or for this thing to just cut all the way to Memphis. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
