I'm a little surprised they wouldn't include Forsyth/Guilford in the warning.

Me too (but not really knowing RAH). I already have close to 0.2" of ice here.

Interesting, did you send in this updated report to NWS RAH? (I don't see it in their NWS LSRs database). Might actually be a good idea to do so lol I'm sure if they saw parts of Guilford nearing 0.2" already they'd strongly reconsider WSWs

Yeah, we've been drizzling all afternoon with temps around 30-31, adding to what we had this morning. Some of the evergreens are starting to sag already.

yes I did. with pics. They responded "nice pictures!"

It'll be interesting to see how dew points go this evening that'll be the primary driver. If we see 32 down at the nc/sc border with 29/30 down to RDU and GSO that's going to be problematic

During the *Heavy* rates of rain here, it was *White Rain*.. so much so I thought it was "snowing".. seriously..

I noticed Stokes was left out of the WSWs from Blacksburg. Stokes is immediately N of Forsyth.

My gut tells me more counties will be included soon. Thinking Durham to Forsyth, but sometimes predicting them ain't easy. (I didn't think they'd only include the 3 current counties for example)

You don't have the clout a "metwannabe" has with them ?

Yeah I'm also a little surprised by that one too, saw many 0.15-0.2" reports in Stokes

In Western Forsyth, we are up to .15 accrual with light zr or drizzle still. Temp 30.1 and dp of 29.6

I am sure you are correct haha

I'm j/k.... I've sent them tweets many times, some times they will acknowledge, some times they ignore it, some times you even get a "shout out" haha.

 

[Metwannabe]

You guys and gals in the NW Piedmont might be in for a nice ice storm, hopefully y'all can keep your lights on

Here is the Weatherbell NAM 3k map for total zr

Temps still slowly inching down about .1/hr now. I'll be at freezing Monday. Still looks like the better dry push is yet to come

Here's a quick map I've put together for this event. I chose to go w/ total ice accumulations since that will have a more direct effect on overall impacts than additional accums tonight. Up to 0.5" total ice possible near the VA border, two tenths to a third of an inch of ice possible in the Triad area. Perhaps a light glaze or so in Raleigh.

Crippling ice storm potentially on the way NE of Greensboro
