Potential Significant Winter Storm Feb. 10-12

Yes! Another snowstorm! This time I expect for central North Carolina to receive 3-6 inches of snow Monday night through Wednesday night, with the heaviest snow falling on Wednesday. There is a general consensus with models in accumulations, stretching from about 4-10+ inches of snow. The reason my totals are not that high is because the temperatures should hover around the freezing mark throughout the storm so not all of the precipitation will be snow. Also, the track of the storm is still not entirely certain, with some models sending the storm out to sea and others riding it up the coast. I don't think that dry air will be as much of a problem in this storm as it was in the last one, but similar wild card factors could still be present in this storm. I will make multiple short updates on this storm from Monday through Wednesday as it arrives and warnings/advisories are issued.
