Wintry Jan 23-27 Winter Storm Obs

[BullCityWx]

Id wonder if the saturation is under the dgz right now.

That was my theory but I’ll ride with the professional on this

 

[WxBlue]

Question, why am I not snowing? The map SD posted it's well below freezing @850, @925, and 19 degrees??

UNCA soundings have been showing a massive warm nose being between 700 mb and 800 mb. Here's 6 pm sounding.

Anybody have trees near their house?

Tons around my neighborhood. Live near Bob Jones

 

[jackendrickwx]

Upstate friends, I know it’s spotty and dry out there right now, but still expecting it to fill in around midnight or so.

 

[broken025]

28 and cloudy

There is genuinely an insane amount of mping reports around Charlotte. It’s almost hard to keep on

 

[EV/WS]

A bit concerned that I decided to wait until tomorrow to leave my home to my brothers family. Whole home gen. And my 2 rescue dogs. Granted it’s only about 8 minutes. Ice would make this extremely difficult.

Anybody else having trouble getting it to load?

I sure hope the HRRR is wrong, because this would be a historic ice storm for NC.

Unfortunately, thus far it has been right on the money.

 

[iGRXY]

I’m getting freezing drizzle

 

[tractor girl]

Athens GA, 8:25pm
36 and falling, currently no precip

 

[FallsLake]

Sleeting pretty good. Still have a few flakes mixed in but that shouldn't last too long. 20.4 degrees.

I hope those totals are overstated too. That would be 2002 deja vu.

Even worse in parts of Virginia.

 

[jackendrickwx]

I’m getting freezing drizzle

Here as well. Light

 

[Snowflowxxl]

38/27. More light rain has arrived

If the HRRR verifies it would honestly be worse than Dec 2002. Larger area of 0.5-0.75"+ ZR totals followed up by a squall line at the end with some breezy to gusty winds, just enough to knock down trees and power lines.

 

[CraggyRider]

Light mix of sleet and freezing just started here in Avl.

 

[LongRanger]

Upstate friends, I know it’s spotty and dry out there right now, but still expecting it to fill in around midnight or so.

But as strong as this CAD is if Rates are Lighter, It's just gonna eat away at it

 

[BullCityWx]

We lost the neighborhood roads in 15 minutes tonight

 

[tractor girl]

Reports of flurries on the far east side of Athens/Clarke county. Hydro classification supports that

700-800mb massive warm nose being served up piping hot.

 

[BIG FROSTY]

I don't know what is going on. It's above my pay grade. But I've always looked at 850s and 925, and I thought I was good for maybe several hours of snow, but. Obviously not.

 

[YetAnotherRDUGuy]

23 degrees/ DP 2 around Lake Lynn. Light to moderate IP. Occasional flake if I squint hard enough.

 

[hky1894]

22 degrees here in Lenoir with an IP/ZR mix. This might get ugly!

 

[BIG FROSTY]

Very heavy sleet now, almost looks like some snow mixed in it. 18/11

 

[Mr Freeze]

Another round of sleet falling with a slight mix of freezing rain, driveway is slick already. 21/7 Mooresville, NC

 

[iGRXY]

Guys .. this much WAA over a continuing colder CAD wedge? The dry slots the HRRR is having are very unlikely to happen.

 

[BourbonLumberjack]

Moderate sleet here now, 20/12

HRRR still drops 1.11 QPF over my area and I’m already mixing with ZR

 

[SSGa]

38/28, with a wet bulb of 33. Very light patchy rain.

 

[CltNative90]

Currently Ip/ZR mix in south Charlotte. Seems to be accumulating more like sleet. Picture is of a patio table cover.

 

[jjwxman]

IP/ZR mix in Randleman. 20/4 8:55PM

 

[NCwx1992]

We have snow in north durham

I bet I’ve got snow right now at my house and am missing it But I brought myself and my cats to my partner’s house in southern Chapel Hill because he’s got a better setup for if the power goes out. And we are 100% sleet here right now

 

[GoDuke]

I’d like to report that road conditions in my locale do not support ford ranger donuts… yet. Currently light mix ip/zr. There is a glaze on most things. Also radar looks anemic as hell.

What part of south charlotte? I’ve still got nothing over the border in Union County

 

[Packsox03]

Not looking great for the Carolinas with the early ZR reports in the western portions of those states and soundings
