Wintry January 8-9 Wintery Weather Potential!

[Logan Is An Idiot 02]

The HRRR shows a very grim picture for most of western NC...and radar trends are confirming it.

Okay whatever you say.

 

[Spurs up]

Not going to lie The CAE radar looks way more impressive than expected right now and if that stuff keeps coming north we will have something here by midnight

The 0Z HRRR looks very good for majority of WNC. Extreme SW NC maybe not so much but there wasn’t much forecasted there to begin with.

45 / Light rain. Building puddle pack for tomorrow

 

[NCHighCountryWX]

High concern over the 925s

Returns starting to build again to the south and west. Just wet so far at 36F. @EmersonGA , Bartow is starting to look better!

36.5/33.8 here in N. Franklin County.

I've had more heavy cold rains here so far this winter than I can ever remember

Maybe check the forecasts before making that statement. Where I’m at was forecast 2-4 tonight with an additional 4-8 tomm.

Dry as a bone where we are suppose to have 8+ in Haywood County

Dry as a bone where we are suppose to have 8+ in Haywood County

Well before the event has started

 

[Avalanche]

Me and @metwannabe sitting pretty and dry ! At least from the maps y’all posted today . That really blows . I always wondered if there is some sort of downsloping affect due to the Uwharries and Carraway ranges in central NC.

Ive always wondered that too. However, in the summer if storms form down in the Troy-Albemarle region they survive well into Chatham Co.

 

[avlsnow]

Let’s all calm down. Last time I checked this onset snow wasn’t even supposed to happen and the main event was later.

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Accounting for low ratios, this is a solid 1-2 with a isolated 3 under that band

 

[KyloG]

I’m not feeling too optimistic. Even though I’m under a winter storm warning, I can see a path to end up with almost nothing to show for it. Too much warm nose on the initial feed with maybe a burst of snow that doesn’t accumulate, dry slot/ drizzle in the middle, and the deform band fizzles so that I see light snow for a couple of hours that doesn’t accumulate much. Maybe get a heavy dusting to a 1/2” a couple of times. I really hope this doesn’t happen, but I’d give it a 50% chance of happening.

You probably are in the best spot outside of the mountains. I think you atleast see 2-3” of snow/sleet.

 

[Myfrotho704_]

That’ll get the job done for areas around Charlotte

Can you back that up to show the max on the NC TN border? Maybe I am missing something...since everyone seems to think I’m a clown.

 

[RVD]

This is pain for Raleigh.

 

[Logan Is An Idiot 02]

Honest question. Which model is more reliable. HRRR or RAP?

Thanks for the vote of confidence. It makes me feel better. I know if the rates are heavy it will pile up quickly. Little bit of luck involved. My area is always significantly worse than Greensboro and Winston. Mixing issues with every storm. I’m keeping my fingers crossed. It’s going to be tough teaching from my computer tomorrow...

Me and my buddy @metwannabe are going to climb up to the top of Medoc mountain for some elevation and a better chance . It’s only like 350 feet up but perhaps that will do . It’s better than my 270 and his probably 150 feet of elevation . Actually not a bad idea ! Hmmm. Maybe some orographic lift?

[Fountainguy97]

Anyone happen to see the 18z euro? Curious to what it shows. It’s been pretty steady.

For sure, if it verifies. These bands are tricky things to forecast, but damn that looks good!!

38 here. Hopefully some of the heavier returns can bring some more flakes.

The best part for me and the rest of us on the Hwy 74 corridor east of Charlotte is that this band looks to arrive within about an hour of sunset. So for the most part this should be after daylight which will be good with temps where they’re at.

Yea...that’s what I was thinking. Not good at all from Asheville west.

If the nam is good, I might have to change my map, thing has went from a GSO-RDU to a CLT-FAY type thing
