Wintry More SE Snow ? (1/16-1/18)
- Thread starter GeorgiaGirl
- Start date
The 11am to 3pm time period looks amazing for us to really get into some fairly heavy stuffI can't find where I said it, but I said no more than one hour of mix at RDU. Even though no measurable precipitation has been reported, they have reported rain/snow for two hours. I was wrong, and I will eat my two dozen bags of crow - with 10" of snow
The main reason for this is because of the system slowing down, which is going to work out very, very well for many of us in central NC. I'll take being wrong in order to get more snow. I can even become the official wrong prediction guy if this will work every time! The latest HRRR is mind-boggling.

Yes. A few of the interstates and major roads are holding out.
This band is very nice. Good sized flakes

There getting micro precipitation. It can mix all day at those rates. Good thing is, like you said, as soon as intensity picks up, big snow!

Sorry for the imby question but what about areas further west like CLT/GSO?

2.3 fluffy snow, and 8 degrees in my part of Atlanta, quite impressive...Definitely a winter this year, I have some blowing and drifting as well...
Waiting on snow might be the equivalent of sitting in the waiting room at the dentist

FWIW to the people downstream who are usually on the line in southeastern events, temps have been a little bit of an issue so far upstream. Procede with caution
31 degrees with 1/2" and snowing good. Temp just got below freezing. 2" should be attainable. Good luck, guys and girls

Sunny and dry in SE Wake.
Ok, just dry. But still.

Drove through the transition zone on the way to Durham which was straight from drizzle to moderate snow.

Getting close to an inch here in Jones County
I think we can pull off 2". Took a while to get below freezing but looks like it's about time for these road conditions to kiss the baby

Up to 1.5 inches and snowing coming down moderately currently.
You'll pay for it dearly in the coming years. Congratulations though!
Sunny and dry in Halifax County, okay partly cloudy and dry but still

Shouldn't these bands start backing up against The escarpment at some point?

Already sticking incredibly well here, Pittsboro/Eastern Chatham County. With that new sounding and the MSD for the area I can't wait to see these heavier rates start coming through!

It's absolutely pouring snow here right now, but roof tops are the only things to which it is sticking as of now.

It’s almost closed off at 6. Banding over RDU looks great on this run

My driveway and sidewalk that was salted last night now is beginning to get a coating of snow on it.
