Oh I have no doubt, but when people are talking about commuting [in their cars] and someone responds by talking about riding bikes out of the blue, that someone is always you.

[Edited on January 6, 2017 at 6:22 PM. Reason : got some ice coming down with the rain in north raleigh]

1/6/2017 6:22:09 PM

its gonna rain like hell. This storm is a mirror image of the 2015 storm that jogged north and west in the last 12-18 hours of models and took the Raleigh/Charlotte corridor from 8-10 inches to a dusting

1/6/2017 6:47:48 PM

all depends on the cold front and when it dips under 32 if im reading correctly.

6 inches isn't likely.

1/6/2017 7:15:08 PM

Forecast totals just dropped a lot, and all this rain and warm temps mean it will take a lot to accumulate

1/6/2017 7:17:32 PM

Car thermometer reading 45 which confirms my early prediction that my car thermometer has been broken for some time now.

Thunder scorpions still possible.

1/6/2017 7:17:43 PM

Absolutely nothing in Oxford right now

1/6/2017 8:14:39 PM

^Same in Carrboro. Shows over, folks.

1/6/2017 8:16:51 PM

it hasnt even started yet lol

1/6/2017 8:40:36 PM

Hasn't snowed a single flake in the last 24 hours. BUST.

1/6/2017 8:41:28 PM

All of cptinsano's posts make me laugh. Except for this last one. I don't wanna be dramatic, but I'm worried about him, guys.

I think we should find out who he is and where he lives and, you know, what his relationship is like with his wife and stuff.

1/6/2017 8:49:34 PM

Nothing but rain just south of Raleigh. Raleigh weather dome in full effect???

1/6/2017 9:15:17 PM

it will be rain and sleet all night, if there is any snow it will be tomorrow AM, maybe 8:00

1/6/2017 9:20:11 PM

Is there still a block user function on tww?

1/6/2017 9:41:49 PM

that's per the NWS Raleigh

ABC11 has moved Raleigh out of the 4-6" range and into the 2"-4" and the trending is moving the 1-2" lie into Raleigh


Ground temps are still very warm (currently 45 degrees) and wet so accumulation will be difficult

[Edited on January 6, 2017 at 9:53 PM. Reason : .]

1/6/2017 9:43:45 PM

NWS Raleigh hasn't posted an update in 4-5 hours

Just keep hedging your bets, you'll either be right or as dead wrong as you were last storm

[Edited on January 6, 2017 at 9:52 PM. Reason : Asd]

1/6/2017 9:52:00 PM

That is per NWS Raleigh 4:15 update:


maybe snow at 8AM

also, i think i was the only person right about the last storm

1/6/2017 9:54:23 PM

Your roads are fine

1/6/2017 9:55:35 PM

so salty

1/6/2017 9:56:32 PM

Ground temp models are coming in. Not good for scorpions.

1/6/2017 9:59:44 PM

Not going to lie but so far dtownral isn't looking bad

1/6/2017 10:01:23 PM

Previously when I said ground temps would be warm, bbehe said they would be cold and asked what temp i thought they would be 10:00 PM Friday night. I said 40's

actual answer, 10PM soil temps for Raleigh: 44-45 degrees

1/6/2017 10:02:21 PM

dtownral is going to be the grumpy old man who won't let the kids step on his lawn.

1/6/2017 10:02:42 PM

i don't know what a warm nose is, but that's what the wx people are talking about on the twitters

1/6/2017 10:05:33 PM

Where the hell is the snow

1/6/2017 10:25:51 PM

Do you say "bet he misses it" before every field goal?

1/6/2017 10:26:19 PM

Yeah I did this year. I like to be right.

1/6/2017 10:36:31 PM

Has anyone driven recently? How are the roads? Are they still fine?

1/6/2017 10:37:27 PM

Snow in Oxford. Let's do this

1/6/2017 10:37:46 PM

I want thunder snow.

1/6/2017 10:44:27 PM

Just drove home. RDU -> Falls lake

Just rain.

1/6/2017 10:48:11 PM

1/6/2017 11:20:23 PM

Snowing good in Carrboro now. Cars and roads are getting covered. In the grass but not sure how much its accumulating yet.

1/6/2017 11:20:45 PM

downtown raleigh report, just rain with a tiny bit of sleet

air temps still hovering just above freezing, soil temps still mid 40's

womp womp

maybe we will get a dusting tomorrow morning

1/6/2017 11:49:32 PM

Been snowing in Durham for a good hour now

Southpoint area. Maybe .25-.5 in

[Edited on January 6, 2017 at 11:51 PM. Reason : ]

1/6/2017 11:50:07 PM

According to the thermapen, air temperature is 34 degrees (Lake Wheeler & 40). Still rain

1/7/2017 12:08:35 AM

The midnight forecast has shifted the snow/sleet line northwest (entirely expected), forecast now is for Raleigh to be lucky to see 1"

1/7/2017 12:13:54 AM

How much are They paying you!?

1/7/2017 12:23:03 AM

lots of ice in north raleigh, and it's already sticking to the roads

our roads are not fine

1/7/2017 12:23:13 AM

gadamn....anyone with some common sense knew what the fuck was gonna happen when the models started shifting this shit west two days ago. This is the 2015 storm all over again. Same exact snow/rain line....same exact shift to the northwest 24-48 hours before the event. Same exact warm nose that affects every single fucking storm we have.

1/7/2017 12:24:18 AM

I don't know anything about roads in North Raleigh, that's a suburban hell hole where ambitions die so I never venture there. Raleigh is ITB, you need Wake Forest updates

1/7/2017 12:31:44 AM

a mile or 2 from crabtree here, 100% sleet, a decent amount of accumulation on roads. This would be worst-case-scenario driving.

1/7/2017 12:32:56 AM

Nothing but rain off Avent Ferry. I'm fine with that.

1/7/2017 12:33:43 AM

All rain in Garner so far, just barely starting to freeze to the truck outside.

1/7/2017 12:42:39 AM

All surfaces are totally covered in snow in Carrboro. No idea of the depth.

LOL JonHGuth's newest username wants to act like his ITBL life is better than everyone else's.

FOH mane.

1/7/2017 1:17:21 AM

Still just plain cold rain in Wendell guess I'll be going to work Monday fuck you snow!

1/7/2017 1:26:35 AM

1.5" of accumulation near Southpoint

1/7/2017 1:36:33 AM

Looks like about 3" on the ground so far on the edge of Mecklenburg county
