Winterhawk Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Looks like we're getting the grand finale; back edge at least according to radar is on the doorstep.. Close to 2"; was hoping/wishing for more but in reality more than most forecast for the north side of Atl.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is snowing harder than at any other time all day, right now. 19.0 degrees. That looks like a nice band out your way sliding east. If radar can be believed, it's going to start hammering here soon... right at Rush Hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing compares to GSP calling for 4 - 6 inches of snow, being under a heavy snow warning and then ending up with not one flake and heavy rain. Now that is a huge bust. This could end right now and still not be in the top 5 for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bevo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 In contrast, I am extremely pleased with the snow falling here in the northern SC upstate. It was never supposed to involve us. Looks like I'll get at least a couple more hours. Nothing huge and fancy - but good. I may scrape out 1 1/2" by tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kinda makes me feel bad for the people who have to make those decisions. Yeap some worried parents here in North Georgia. Kids stranded at schools when buses couldn't run, and some kids are currently stranded on buses that are having trouble on the routes. Our school district sent out an email apology/explanation already this afternoon, basically saying they weren't notified by the NWS in time to do anything more. GA gov just declared a state of emergency, state-wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm going on a Jeb Walk later when that heavier band to our west rolls through. I encourage you all to perform your own Jeb Walks during this storm. It makes it so much better! I'm also kind of thrilled with the prospect of sweeping snow off the driveway later. It's not often you can do that in the South! Dry snow FTW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chattownsnow Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm noticing some 20-25dbz returns working there way in from the NW towards Chattanooga now. any chance that holds together and makes its way here? already snowing pretty good again in the area. BTW, awesome storm and congrats on everyone in the area seeing snow! I was really thinking we were going to miss this one but boy did we luck out!

The latest HRRR which I always think has done well has 2" for western Wake, 3" for RDU and 4" for eastern Wake, that is snow with 10:1 ratio's, so maybe with ratios you can add an 1/2". Kind of what I was thinking will happen. Still not a flake here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No model is even showing that. Our NWS just says all rain with a slight chance of sleet. Then throughout the day tomorrow we have a 20% chance of freezing rain, sleet, and snow.
