Wouldn't be surprised , with these DB's, to start seeing some light snow in this area in the next hour.

The EURO came in low compared to the rest of the latest global and high resolution model runs I've seen this afternoon Hopefully King EURO isn't sniffing another last minute trend in the wrong direction for snow lovers. I told my stepdaughter when she called from Willow Springs last night to expect between two to three inches of snow in her location. It might be a bit conservative but I think it is a pretty safe bet. My family knows I'm a weather weenie and I get plenty of calls when something dramatic is in the air weather wise.
Clouds had really thinned this morning but in the last couple of hours thickened up nicely, seem to be lowering too. With the images Ross just posted this thing looks primed and it's almost go time.

Got a feeling areas are going to see snow flying quite a bit earlier than models indicated or when the real plumes of moisture start.

Going to take a lot of moisture to saturate the column over much of NC....very dry aloft.

DT really upped his totals this morning after completely giving up last night, still am confused as to why he’s saying ice won’t be a significant problem along the coast
Not his problem maybe
Really confused by that being the high end potential? 2” in Durham, 3” in Raleigh? Really, as the high end??
There have already been plenty of reports of snow in NC. Don't really think it's going to be that big of an issue.

28.8/11.7 here and it will very hard for W-S westward to saturate the column. So I will go with W-S to 77-coating to an inch, Greensboro to Burlington-2" in G'boro 3" in Burlington. East to Raleigh- 3-5", over to NE coast 5-7" coating to Sl/Zr changeover, SE Va 7-9". SC GSP/Anderson up to 1", KCAE- coating to 1" and then zr. Northern coast SC to SE NC 1 inch with ice and sleet.
WWA just to my east now....hmmmm

Folks up north have no idea how hard it is to chase & conquer .10-.20 of frozen precip
I’m squinting as hard as I can .. also temp has stayed way below 30 still 27 here .. don’t think we’re going much higher

It's too bad we don't have a stronger system here, the temp profile is fantastic. Heck, even a repeat of the .22 I got last night would yeild 2-3 inches. You might be in a slightly better spot than I am but this one just isn't ours. Gonna be fun for the Midland to Triangle folks though; CAE definitely due.
Steady snow in Wilkes now this is coming to Winston-Greensboro-Asheboro-Cary in the coming hours!
Mostly virga around the Triangle although small line setting up just southeast that could eventually fall to the ground
You can see the jet streak returns now on radar from north east Georgia to Wilkesboro nc 
Column moistening up now quickly seen from tilt one here we go

It's 27 and breezy with dark clouds to my southwest.

Already filling in at 2pm.
18z sounding from MHX. Warm nose just as forecast. Hopefully the marginal surface temps save us from a potential bad ice storm. Not seeing much accumulation from the rain we have had so far today. Temps 31-33 depending on the station but a cold northerly wind.
Curious if some of that in the S Piedmont/Sandhills might start hitting the ground. Looks somewhat robust there on radar. Will help to moisten the column in any case, which is good.

HRRR shows bay effect snow showers tomorrow after the storm for coastal VA/NC, would be neat and not out of the question due to strong, cold north wind over relatively warm water
Watching like a hawk other then a few hallucinations nothing yet

Based on the COD, moisture is getting thrown through northern Alabama and on the other side of the apps. I think we are going to over perform. That is a massive west push of moisture that is being picked up enough by radar already.

Receiving sleet right now
Let the games begin
How do you switch to Clear Air Mode in RadarScope?

officially snowing in rocky mount!!
Snow report in southwest raleigh, not sure I buy it. Nothing here
Looks like GSP extended advisories westward, now to Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Rowan, Gaston.

Is this earlier than what was predicted? If so that might be a good sign of extra accums.
First and last call, best area for 3-6” SW to NE
Yeah that streaking showing up on radar along with the mPING report around Nashville is interesting for sure
