Chances for a White Christmas are on the Increase!

Included in the video is White Christmas history for Iredell County, model outputs, and potential storm tracks.

Here's the video...

Had mostly cloudy skies with flurries flying and sleet bouncing around last night in some areas. The down side was that the clouds blocked the lunar eclipse.

All eyes are on the Christmas Day Storm. GFS still has the low pressure system too far North to produce significant snow accumulations of snow. UKMET is now too far South to produce significant accumulations of snow. Euro and Canadian are in pretty good agreement that the storm takes a track that is just about the closest to perfect you can get for snow in Western NC. Phasing times is one of the big issues with this storm. If the phasing happens to early then the GFS could be the right solution, but if the phasing occurs later on the Euro/Canadian could play out. I do think that we will see some flakes flying Christmas day, but the amount of snow will be determined by the track.Time will tell. Tomorrow will be the day we can really start to lock onto what this system's going to do. Chilly temps settle in after the storm clears the region.

Continue to check back here for the latest updates on this potential winter storm.

Thanks for viewing, have a Great Day, and God Bless You!
