Weather update 1/27/2014

My first prediction in regards to the upcoming winter weather event is 3-5 inches of snow starting late Tuesday and ending Wednesday morning for the triangle.  Expect less on the NW side of the triangle (Chapel Hill) and more accumulation on the SE side of the triangle (Garner).  The cut off for winter warning criteria snow will be pretty sharp and looks to be near the I85 cooridor and west of 501.  So that would put all of Wake County in the 3-5 inches of snow category.  Another 50 mile jog to the west and we're looking at 6-9 inches.  Another 50 mile jog to the east and we're looking at 1 or 2 inches.

I'll have an update later when the GFS model run becomes available.
