The Weather Thread

[Carolina Fever]

I love how WRAL mets are always in CYA mode when it comes to potential winter storms here. They always go with the models that looks the worst and then make sure to say everything that could go wrong to reduce their already conservative totals.

I mean I read it for events like this but good lord the "well the 3z OH QPCP model had a dry intake zone..." just makes me like "ummm why you not on the news?"

Things are looking pretty good for the Triangle. Already reports of snow in Raleigh.

Winter storm warning out now for Wake and areas east and north. Calling for 3 to 5 inches of snow.

What is up with this winter where the NC coast gets all the best snow?

Radar showing snow here in Triad, but air is too dry to make it to ground yet. My Weather and Climate Professor Dodd taught us, that is called sublimation. Sublimation is when a solid goes directly from solid to a gas, skipping a transformation to liquid first. Same thing occurs when snow disappears from ground below freezing.

Snowing good here in Charlotte but it’s 35 so not much is lasting.

Warm weather yesterday did it's job for the roads today for the most part.
