The avatar is illustrative of Carolinians being snow fans. So I thought...this fits.

Try being a snow lover in Columbia SC.

I'm just playing with Brick there. He's in the 1-2" zone...probably closer to an inch, though.

Correct, the 0" snow hole will be over ITB Raleigh.

SREF Plumes will make you feel bullish as this sun sets this afternoon.

I go back to the 12z runs loving Pitt, Edgecombe, Rocky Mount area....gotta love the cluster between 4-6.5 there

I try to temper expectations but the 18Z GFS shows that NE to SW banding setup over the interior coastal plains that we see whenever we get good events here.....that low strength and placement is textbook perfect for us down here if this pans out.....to bad we cant slow the damn thing down a bit....

Ffs, we're trying to hand this off to VA at the last second.

NW trend? How about NE trend?! We keep inventing new ways to try & screw it up

That takes out southern half of wake for accums. Ooof.

Been there...takes floodlight hallucinations to a whole new level.

Nice break in the clouds for a good chunk of NC, should allow for a bit of cooling before the cloud deck moves in later tonight. May not have any impact but worth noting.

It's not a surprise, sadly. Every hour we lose is 2" off the totals lol

See those low clouds in northeast NC kept temps in the mid 40's here now if it'll clear out I could do some rapid cooling before those clouds move in.

The HRRR has been slowly reducing totals for the Triad from around 4" down to 1-3" now.

It really is a perfect fit. Bravo. I guess on the bright side there is no need to stay up late tonight. So, I should be able to get a solid 8 hours.

The HRRR giveth and it will also taketh away. However, 1-3" is still better than nothing.

Mid upper 50s all darn day here. I like your spot.

Im drinking some IPA's and then some Tom Collins, then 8 hours.

You hate to lose the potential of a system like this to surface temps. Really is frustrating.

Looks like a sharp cutoff it’s painting from east to west. Interestingly enough, the opposite of what we normally see. Could easily see Gibsonville getting 2-4” while Winston-Salem gets nearly shutout. NE NC from Henderson to Roanoke Rapids is looking pretty good, IMO. Buckle up, @metwannabe!!!
