superjames1992 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Just got in from another Jeb Walk... 18 degrees with the snow coming down good. It might be moderate, but I'm not positive. It's a picturesque winter wonderland. You can't do it much better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkman Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Just measured 1.25" on my deck. Looks like the end is almost here but it has been a very nice pretty snow day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 34/slowly falling and moderate rain that commenced about 15 minutes ago here in Savannah. Lots of rain on the radar to the W and WSW of here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowGoose69 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I know what you mean, we went out in it this afternoon and it was incredibly dry and powdery. I'm not the Georgia statistician or anything, but I can't remember the last time we had a (somewhat) major snow around Atlanta with temps at 21 to 24 degrees. It's usually in the lower 30's and maybe down into the upper 20's. On that note, the local news here is unreal. All the interstates are a total disaster. I'm afraid some of the people out there could possibly be stuck all night. Temps are already close to dropping into the teens! I went through a similar event in OKC back in 09...of course that was a 14 inch storm but the impacts were similar to what ATL is having today....the remarkable thing which you'll see is the carryover effect is massive, stuff will be closed for days, I mean literally you'll go to a restaurant or store Friday and it will be closed because their employees are just burned out, sick, have worked 30 hours straight or people still have not retrieved abandoned cars and what not.

27596WXNUT Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I am right off US1 at the Wake and Franklin line. I am off of HWY 96 at the Wake/Franklin line. Very curious to see what this light stuff measures up to in the morning. Seems to have picked up somewhat in the last few minutes. Hopefully this trend continues.

NoDa-wx Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Snow is light, pushing moderate in noda Charlotte. Seems like the base under the sand-snow is basically a sheet of ice.

seasonsoflove Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Augusta here! We're entering hour 5 of the excruciating slide from 37 to 32 degrees -- closest wunderground has me at 33.3. Freezing rain for the past 2.5 hours. Really hoping we'll make the switch soon, some rain bands have been heavy. Less ice more snow please. A friend in Grovetown tells me it's snowing, so hopefully that's coming my way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 nice big flakes now with this band... about 1.5 inches on ground .. still 17 deg Yeah, flake size is increasing some now and rates are picking up again. This has turned out to be such a nice surprise for our area. I really didn't think we were going to get anything. Indeed! I thought we would get something, but this is overperforming, even for my typically overdone expectations. Then again, we live in the Triad and we tend to do well in these fringe events, haha. We fringe our way to good winter totals at the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Stream Rider Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 OK - 8pm report from Chapel Hill; Snow. Intensity has picked up a bit. Its steady, I'm temped to call it moderate.

sctvman Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Freezing rain and ice starting in my backyard. Started accumulating on the plants. Temp shows 34.7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griteater Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 0.5 to 1 inch and winding down here north of Charlotte. Temperatures were impressively cold, precip rates were not. A warm ground would have laughed at these rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
featherwx Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Enjoying the dusting here in West Durham so far-we'll probably get at least an inch, but it's painful watching the heaver precip stay just east. Would anyone be able to comment on the chance of that precip shield moving a bit more westward so that us Durham/Orange county folk get into more of the fun?

kvegas-wx Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 nice big flakes now with this band... about 1.5 inches on ground .. still 17 degJust got in and couldnt agree more. Back edge getting ready to swing through and these are the biggest flakes we have had all day. Snowed an inch or so since 6pm here in Kernersville. Agree with your 1.5" total.Cant believe how much accums were wasted with powder earlier today. Only served to make the roads treacherous but the sledding is great! It packs tight. Edit- I would think the larger flakage bodes well for overnight accums for our triangle and sandhills friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreensboroWx Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 What about that line of snow just now moving into the mountains out tn. You think it holds together coming off the mountains? Prob not, but it could enhance what is already showing....good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovingGulfLows Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Still snowing here in Conyers. Incredible...the snow is somewhat deep. About 2.5 inches, 3 in some isolated spots around the yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billypg Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 1.5 to 2 inches here in Taylors SC Thats NE of GVL in Greenville County right next to Greer ! The lightest finest flakes I seen started around 1pm and ended around 7:45 The bad thing is that because the snow was so fine it melted on the road for an hour and a half or two hours with temps in the mid 20's ! Now its low 20's and the road is a sheet of ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Prob not, but it could enhance what is already showing....good luck! How much snow do you think we have left? The back edge is a little too close for comfort, but it's not moving too fast. I want to eclipse 2"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
