Wintry Dec 8-10th Winter Storm

You leaning more sleet or frzn towards Triangle?

I'm leaning that way over rain/snow. It wouldn't take a whole lot to put a good part of that column on the GFS above freezing and I certainly don't trust the GFS to sniff out the warm nose (if at all) due to its coarse vertical resolution and poor handling of the low-level CAD dome.
 
Yeah this taken at face value on the GFS (which is rarely a good idea when it comes to these kinds of setups) is a snow sounding at RDU but I don't feel comfortable with this much veering in the profile and winds screaming at 60 KT from the SSW near 700 hPa. Classic recipe for a very strong, over performing warm nose.

I've seen this movie before...

But but but the DGZ is fully super saturated. Lol. God I hope not man.

Btw Eric, I'm guessing you are in the University City area of CLT right? Just wondering
 
Here's the last panel of the 18z RGEM. I like that 1038 HP. I'll be interested to see how it looks tomorrow.

The globals are not backing down. Looks like RAH is calling for 3 to 5 inches of snow for me. I would gladly take that for the first storm of the season.
