Yep that is correct!

Last few days in Australia. Getting sent to Anchorage Alaska next. Lol. Well I guess that historic snowstorm in GA last month was just the warm-up for Alaska.
-
Haha yeah! Fortunately it looks like it may stay to our east.

Wild going from historic snow event in Southern Georgia to nearly a Category 5 hurricane just chilling off the coast of Australia. We will see where this comes ashore but I've never experienced anything over a Category 1.

We are sitting here on the edge of our seats trying to figure out where this beast is gonna go. I've never seen so much disagreement and divergence between models and ensembles in this short of a timeframe. If this ends up tracking further west than expected as some of the ensembles suggest, we are gonna be in serious trouble here in Exmouth.

It was indeed a very fun month. Glad to have experienced a historic winter storm in my hometown before returning back to this weather in Australia.

23 degrees here and clear skies. Still got snow on the ground even after temps in the 50s yesterday. Heading to the airport to go back to Australia. Glad I got to be in my hometown for this historic snow event.

Agreed CMC did a great job. Initially when we started out as snow and it had already started accumulating hours ahead of when we were supposed to transition over I thought "holy crap HRRR might be right" then we switched over to sleet the moment temps went below freezing. Very fun event though. I still have about 1.5 inches in the yard. The roads are drivable today somewhat but yesterday didn't leave the house at all. Some locations on north side of town I've seen measurements of 4-5 inches of snow/sleet.

1/21-1/22 Winter Storm OBS Thread

Currently 28F with sleet. After that brief period of heavy snow, we switched back over to sleet. We were pretty much sleet for 90% of the storm. 3 inches of sleet and snow in backyard at the moment. CMC/RGEM were the only models that showed a pure sleetfest here. Still an incredible storm though. I am curious to see what KAYS reports for totals and if we beat the 1973 record. -

It's 28F here and heavy snow now. Finally switched over. I love how many people are outside right now at 1am. -

We've been sleet down here in SE GA for past 4 hours lol. Got an inch on the ground so far but definitely ate into our snow potential here. Looking at Correlation Coefficient on radar, looks like we'll remain sleet for the next couple of hours. -

36F with snow and sleet. Just started snowing about 5 mins ago. The HRRR model might be right. -

43F and sleet rn lol. -
18Z NAM is now starting to show those colder 850s. Cuts freezing rain totals in half and significantly higher snow totals across the region. Our winter storm warning is now saying up to 3 inches of snow and 0.10 of ice. Slowly trending into being potentially biggest snowstorm on record here lol. It's 44F outside rn, but I'm not concerned about that. DP is in mid 20s and we should be below at or below freezing about a couple of hours after the onset of precipitation.

I'm back in Georgia briefly visiting the family before I go back to Australia this weekend. I just happen to be here during this snow event lol.
-
These high-resolution models are very interesting on our snowfall amounts now. Even the GFS ensemble mean doubled snowfall compared to previous run and is a lot wetter. If the freezing rain does happen to be limited as these models are starting to suggest, we might be in for a lot more than 2 inches of snow/sleet if temps cooperate as well.

Nah haha. I'm back home visiting in S GA for a little bit. I return to Australia this weekend. -
How did the HRRR do? That 12Z run is trying to give us nearly 10 inches of snow. Most likely overdone but it also has no freezing rain. Just straight to sleet and then all moderate to heavy snow. Euro also has barely any freezing rain. It just has half the QPF that the high-res models are showing. Our winter storm warning amount has increased from 1 inch of snow to 2 inches with 0.10 of ice on top of that.

Had some surprise sleet earlier on south side of town. Interestingly enough on the north side of town people were seeing snow.
