Yeah, at 120 hours the surface boundary layer just isn't cold enough. This won't work. everything must be perfect these days. Cold rain for most. I'm throwing in the towel. It's easy since I saw light snow on 12/24/2020. Looking for a chance to chase in the Chattanooga area.
You would need some dynamic cooling, lower dew points, a source of low level cold (wedge), but none of those are showing up. The dynamic cooling would create a warm nose over me (stronger low pressure), so I don't want that...it's just not going to work.

Yeah, that's going back to Siberia. Early spring is on the horizon. I'm ready, frankly.

He said you can go sleep at home tonight if you can get up and walk away. True story of Pete Townsend passed out outside of a bar. The Who rocks!!!

Just you all wait until February 18th and 25th and I will be here to brag about my ice!
TBH, though, the mean surface low track for a major winter storm in the Triangle is quite a bit offshore, so this is far from an optimal track for us.
Those highs in the 60s make it believable

I’ve always thought temperatures in the mid 60s were optimal for sleet. ?
My favorite! 68 And ice!
I think the southern slider comes through Monday. Going to be tough to see major accumulations with temperatures in the upper 40s, though. ?
Give us January 10, 2011 WITHOUT RDU getting the shaft and the whole board can be happy
Just give me January 2000. It’s every man for himself these days, the situation is dire.
