Sad, and sick times for our nation that depends on weather experts that help to keep us safe.

There is an extremely heavy band of rain over the Upstate of S.C. that is not moving. We have gotten almost 1.5" in just the last hour. I am shocked there are not flood warnings issued for central Greenville County. Update at 10:37 Flood Advisory for Greenville County Issued by National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg, SC 10:12 AM EDT Mon, Apr 7, 2025 ...FLOOD ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 1 PM EDT THIS AFTERNOON... * WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is expected. * WHERE...A portion of upstate South Carolina, including the following county, Greenville. * WHEN...Until 100 PM EDT. * IMPACTS...Minor flooding in low-lying and poor drainage areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - At 1009 AM EDT, Doppler radar indicated heavy rain due to training heavy showers across the city of Greenville.

This system over performed, giving me 2.3” at my house.

It is not down. Looking at it right now.

Greenville, SC, at the foot of Paris Mountain.

Moderate snow here. Temp dropped to 28. Ground is covered and the snow is beginning to stick to the streets. It will not last long, but it is beautiful!

So, the reason Charlotte has missed out on the snow is because the NWS is located at GSP?

At this point, models mean nothing. Just watch the radar and you will see the moisture drying up at the SC/GA line. Looks like nothing but light rain and sprinkles for the Upstate, with the same spreading into Piedmont NC.

Live just north of Greenville, S.C. Enough snow coming down to turn roofs white. Beginning to stick to driveways too. I don’t expect this to last long, but it’s a nice surprise.

Why do so many live and die by praising or blaming computer models? The weather is going to do what it does, right? What did our weather experts of yesterday use to follow storms? Having so many computer models just adds confusion and bad information for the public. Am I wrong?

The snow underperformed in Greenville County. There was a dry slot over most of middle Greenville most of the afternoon. The inch we got was beautiful. For the first snow in three years, I’ll take it and be happy. Hoping for another one this year.

Nonsense, but carry on.

Greenville/Spartanburg an obscure location?

Good breakdown from our friend Chris Justus. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/15WD28xj9u/?mibextid=wwXIfr

WeatherUnderground has increased the snow totals for me from 4” to 5”. They have not wavered at all with snow totals in the last few days. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. We will know in the morning when we can look at the radar instead of computer models.
