Wintry Potential Dec 13-14 Ice Threat

[Tagat]

I know I don't have a dog in this fight but it has been a cold drizzly day down here.

Probably the most realistic map I've seen all-day

Surface wet bulb map as of 1z. The northern & far western piedmont of NC certainly seems primed for a light glaze w/ wet bulbs in the upper 20s-near 30F, probably going to be too warm near the NC-SC border & points south.

Ofc the 32 degree line is over the Northern Mecklenburg area.

Up to 40 degrees now lol, failwedge

It’s the same system, not ice, but instead severe weather, long range hrrr went boom with it, shows a meso low, with supercells along the cold front, meso low is likely enhancing low level shear, only limiting thing is low level instability, cold air aloft to would support hail

Let the ice begin! Temp is running about 3 degrees below guidance thus GSP upping totals. Better late than never GSP!

Still 30/18 with a slight NE breeze and thin veil of high level clouds.

Now down to 28 /18. Wind has gone calm. I think I'm primed for a little sparkle in the trees.

My final call for this event in NC. Temps look like they're gonna be too warm in Charlotte for any significant ZR accrual, same can not be said for the northwestern piedmont. With light winds and ice accumulations near or up to 0.25", may see some widely scattered power outages in the far NW piedmont.

 

[BIG FROSTY]

31.4/23 WB= 28.5

 

[Webberweather53]

31.4/23 WB= 28.5

Yikes, you're already below freezing before any precip has moved in.

My final call map aswell, which was the same map I posted yesterday, still looks good, maybe more ice into those areas near SW NC since cold air can get trapped in those areas, same for areas more west of this axis of ice into the mountains

 

[Scooter]

Just outside of High Point in northern Davidson County

 

[Myfrotho704_]

38/21 here = 32 WB

 

[RainlessSnowless & Grumpy]

40/25= wet bulb of 35. Fail! Next!

 

[Myfrotho704_]

Here comes the moisture

 

[MichaelJ]

Uh oh, now 31/23 here and clear skies with 6% cloud cover

 

[drfranklin]

39.1/28

 

[BirdManDoomW]

28 over 22. I see those to my west have dew points in the teens up in the mtns.

 

[BirdManDoomW]

Jefferson is 27 over 19.

Reports of some sleet mixing in around Clemson. It’s heading your way soon, Mack and Jimmy.
