1234snow Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Lt. rain snow mix here now as the back edge of the solid area of precip has drifted back west some. Heavy snow falling in eastern Lee and throughout Wise county now. here's a cam from Wise showing it beginning to stick : http://www.mcs.uvawise.edu/webcam/ Yeah it was snowing up in Big Stone Gap and on the way back to Gate City it turned to rain.

EmersonGA Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 FFC is on drugs, as usual. Nobody south of the mountains or maybe Rome will see snow....and "black ice" in ATL- LOL. Definate fail. It's funny how they jump the gun on situations like this but other times they wait until there's 3" of snow on the ground. BTW I have a black ice story in ATL. In December of 2005 I was taking my last final at Georgia Tech before graduating. I reckon this was after the ice storm. Anyways, it took me over 2 hours to get to Atlanta from Acworth because of the black ice. Once I got there I had to shuffle across the parking lots. It was scaring me to death since I was almost failing the class and needed a C (Advanced Micro-economics - big mistake) However, that is the only time in my years of driving that I've encountered something that bad.

SnoJoe Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Temps are just now starting to drop. Down to just 39.2. I'm afraid the cold air isn't going make in soon enough. Plus, the precip is drying up on radar quicker than a bird turd on a hot tin roof. I still say, if the cold air gets here, the bigger story will be the black ice in the morning.

CAD Addict Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Just talked to my buddy who lives on Beech...it is snowing. Still at 40 degrees here in Boone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LithiaWx Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 It's been a pretty steady light rain for the past 20 minutes here in Marietta. Temp down to 42, not a flake mixed in. The radar shows nothing yet it is raining pretty good right now. I guess Dacula is right when he said yesterday that the surrounding sites are not picking up on everything. edit : just tapered to a drizzle.

Joe, we have crashed to 39.9 & we just started getting moderate rain. Would def. be a good snow right now if it was just a bit colder. Hope it makes it up your way!

superjames1992 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 We are about to get hit by a decent line of storms that are just beginning to make it into Wake County, NC. It is 66 degrees right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Ridge Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 35F at home with rain/snow mix, 37F in town with moderate rain. Drove to Beauty Spot on the state line and witnessed the changeover from rain to snow. While I was on the trail, the temperature dropped four degrees (15-20 minutes). I'll post pictures later. The story here may be minor flooding from swollen creeks and streams. The Main St bridge over Rock Creek is about a foot from being overtaken. More when I get home.

NCSNOW Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 The beat goes on for MBY. Had another in what seems like endless streams this fall of heavy rain events. Front came through with about a 10 minute wind wept monsoon. I know some are not faring to well in the rain department, but this is the wettest last 4 month of a calendar year I can ever remember.
