Did they forecast the 'blizzard' conditions at the Outer Banks today? I am wondering what they are calling for in Central NC and the coast for Tues/Wed now. These storms seems to slow down and do alot of difference from what they call?
Anyone have an idea of what we are looking at for Tues/Wed in Central/Sandhills, NC? From reading American Weather they are a little unsure as well?

I'm expecting a dusting to an inch here to the south of Columbia, but from what I'm seeing in other states, I wouldn't be surprised if we possibly ended up with 2-3 here.

Just read an update on NOAA and they sound a little apprehensive as well. They have advisories and warnings and watches all over NC, but where I live - just west of Fayetteville - we have no warnings at all - kinda splits the state. Very hard to read what will happen, just have to wait and see. Also sounds like they have raiaed the qpf rate. Take a look at what it dropped in ARK and we may have a very sneeky storm.

Winter Weather Advisories extended to most of the Midlands of SC. I agree with you hcaeb with the potential for this storm to be a sneaky one for the Carolinas.

Statesville NC which is North of Charlotte they are only calling on 1/2 an inch. I would love to wake up to 5 inches.
