Wintry 1/20 - 1/23 Winter Storm

WRAL discussion. They sound bullish. I honestly don't know...


I think several reasons....one is these systems almost always end up a little colder and have more QPF than modeled....they are hedging their bets they would rather knock totals down a bit tomorrow than have to really ramp it up late in the game. As alluded to by several there is a very fine line between next to nothing and a fairly significant storm.....if the storm was tomorrow night and trends were like today that would be a much bigger deal but the prime time is Friday night still 48 hrs out.. This could still very much be a big hit for the Triangle.....climo kinda suggest that its even almost likely to overperform the modeling since overrunning type events tend to do that....
