Interesting discussions from CHS and GSP tonight.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

PUBLIC...
ANOTHER CLASSIC DUAL BETWEEN A WELL ESTABLISHED SFC WEDGE AND LOW
PRES NOSING EWD INTO SRN ALABAMA HEADED TOWARD SRN GEORGIA EARLY
THU. WITH THE WEDGE CURRENTLY S OF JACKSONVILLE THIS EVENING...THE
SYNOPTIC PATTERN IS SHOWING SIGNS THAT IT WILL BE HARD TO BUDGE THU
AND LOW PRES IS LIKELY TO REDEVELOP ALONG THE COASTAL TROF OFF THE
COAST WHICH IS WHAT BOTH THE 18Z GFS AND ETA SHOW HAPPENING. THE
DIFFICULT PART OF OUR FCST IS HOW FAR N CAN THE WARM FRONT GET
BEFORE LOW SCOOTS ENE OF THE REGION THU AFTN. MODEL CONSENSUS HAS
IT REACHING SAVANNAH.
FOR THE UPDATE...WILL REMOVE EVENING WORDING AND GO WITH CATEGORICAL
POPS OVERNIGHT. WILL LIKELY GO WITH STEADY TEMPERATURES FOR THE MOST
PART. MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO WINDS. WITH DYNAMICS AND IMPRESSIVE
PACIFIC SUBTROPICAL CONNECTION SEEN ON WATER IMAGERY IMAGERY...
EXPECTING SOME 1.0 TO 1.5 INCH QPF TOTALS. WILL ADD MENTION OF RAIN
HEAVY AT TIMES LATE TONIGHT ALL ZONES.
MARINE...
PREFER THE LATEST RUC AND 18Z ETA SOLUTIONS THRU EARLY THU. WILL
SLOW DOWN WSHFT TO SW OVER THE GEORGIA WATERS UNTIL MID MORNING THU
AND KEEP FLAGS STATUS QUO NOW THAT A SCA IS UP FOR THE NEAR SHORE
GEORGIA WATERS. LATEST REPORT FROM THE CHARLESTON PILOT BOAT HAD
SEAS 6 FT AT BUOY 6. MOST OTHER CHANGES ON THE UPDATE WILL BE FOR
INITIAL CONDITIONS.
.CHS...
GA...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY AMZ354-374.
SC...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY AMZ350-352.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
1003 PM EST WED FEB 26 2003
IN SHORT...WILL LEAVE WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES AS IS.
PRECIPITATION HAS BECOME SPOTTY AS FIRST SHORT WAVE AND AREA OF
ISENTROPIC LIFT MOVE EAST. HOWEVER EXPECT PATCHY RAIN AND
DRIZZLE...WITH THE FREEZING VARIETY WHERE TEMPS ALLOW...UNTIL NEXT
SHORT WAVE AND AREA OF ISENTROPIC LIFT MOVE IN ABOUT 09Z. ICE
ACCUMULATIONS OCCURRING ACROSS I-40 CORRIDOR OUTSIDE OF MTNS. OVER
1/4 INCH ALREADY IN DAVIE COUNTY. TEMPS WILL REMAIN BELOW FREEZING
SO ANY ADDITIONAL PRECIP WILL FREEZE. TEMPS AND WET BULBS HAVE
FALLEN LOWER THAN FCST AND EXPECT LITTLE MOVEMENT OVERNIGHT.
TEMPS/WET BULBS CLOSE ENOUGH TO FREEZING IN ADVISORY COUNTIES TO
CONTINUE AS ANY MOVEMENT LOWER WILL RESULT IN ICING...BUT STILL DO
NOT EXPECT WARNING LEVEL ACCUMULATIONS IN THESE AREAS.
HAD TO LOWER TONIGHTS LOWS TO ACCOUNT FOR CURRENT TEMPS.

Only had ice on the windshield of the truck, not the car. truck is parked under a tree. Icy conditions on bridges and overpasses of course caused traffic accidents. Radio station has been flakey this morning, folks up north (Durham, etc.) have much more ice than we do. Kid was cranky cause he had to go to school - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA - I TOLD him he'd have to go..

I live on a tree lined street in Cary!
I just may stay late at work today...at least until the thaw is well under way
I work in Raleigh near the Art Museum off Blue Ridge Road. The pine trees are bending over from ice accumulation and we have started a pool here at the office as to when the powerlines will go from a falling tree!
