Just now went above freezing. Got a little over 1/8" of ice and a half inch of sleet. Enough to make the limbs sag on the trees. Raingauge is still froze up but it isn't overflowing the intake so once it thaws I'll have a rain reading but it's dumping at the moment.
Just got home from GA. Not sure how much snow we actually got but had to be at least an inch. Have that much still left in the shade. HRRR has a decent amount of wraparound even into GA tomorrow night.
The line of storms on the 3km NAM looks like it means business Tuesday afternoon. Probably be some sizable gusts with it. Also the wraparound behind it looks fantastic, albeit relatively short lived.
Yeah looks almost on par with last year's Christmas outbreak. Definitely the potential there. I'll be very surprised if we make it to the end of the month without a solid snowstorm. Looks like that SSW event is doing it's job.
Yall really can't win for losing here the past couple years down there. I thought for sure with the amount of moisture coming through it would bust through that dry level. I'm sure I'll hear it on the FB posts from the website over the next couple days LOL
I'm gonna be in Georgia this weekend so y'all can go ahead and pencil this storm in. Got a good dusting in Blowing Rock this morning. Actually saw a faint snow/fog bow. Never seen one with snow falling. Hopefully it shows up in the pic.
The NAM stuck to its guns and if you take into account the GFS/Euros well known issue with northern precipitation shields I think North GA/SW NC have a very good shot at a 1-3" event Wednesday evening/night. Also wouldn't be surprised if border folks wake up to a dusting to kick off the new year.
Yeah. I don't know how this stacks up in strength or anything other than in how it relates to PSCs (which made it to +42N BTW) but thought it was interesting to see it mentioned somewhere not strictly weather related. I will say that spike is still the forecast but a warming event is underway. Just gotta see how warm it gets.
