Radar upstream in AL looks to go to my south and everything to my west is diminishing as it moves east. I'm thinking my current sprinkling of snow is all I will get. Maybe I'm wrong though. BTW what does the Hrrr have for low temps in my area? yeah...you are sort of in between where the band falls apart and reenergizes. Who knows where that back edge really is but i think you will be fine. hrrr has a sharp temp contrast you area. mid 20s in hall county with mid teens in atlanta. might be a bit high/ lanier influenced though. 3km nam shows mid to upper teens it looks like.

frazdaddy Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I don't think surface temps will be an issue. This is my asphalt driveway measured with a Fluke laser temp sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQPublic Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Can't believe how cold it is in N. Mississippi. Per the Wundermap, single digits this early in the evening has to be unprecedented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toxictwister00 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 What I would consider Blowing Snow has started here in Atlanta. Temp dropped from 41 to 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burrel2 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 down to 42.3/33 on my work weather station next to lake Hartwell. Honestly, the temps have dropped a lot faster than I expected. Hrrr keeps me at 42 from 9pm until 3 am... but my temp is still steadily dropping at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CummingGaSnow Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Down to 28.7 here. Snow has stopped, it keeps diminishing as it moves east into NE GA. Kinda dissapointing, but maybe I will wake to a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW what does the Hrrr have for low temps in my area? The SW flow has definitemy helped this event. The radar echoes are moving WSW-ENE and although I think your area when I checked the map may be on the NW fringe of things I wouldn’t be surprised if you had over one inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lookout Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 i know this isn't our area but since i mentioned western tn temps...how about this. Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Memphis TN 638 PM CST Tue Jan 16 2018 .UPDATE... Update to add light snow showers along and downwind of Kentucky Lake and Tennessee River. && .DISCUSSION... A another very cold night is in store for the Mid South as an upper level shortwave rotates across the region and surface high pressure builds in from the west. It appears that conditions will again be favorable for lake/river effect snow along and downwind of Kentucky Lake/Tennessee River. It appears that as winds shift north-northeast later this evening will set up a favorable fetch along the lake/river. Latest high resolution HRRR soundings suggest a moist layer will develop between 1.5-2.0kft beneath an inversion. This moisture layer is well within the prime dendritic snow growth zone. In addition, the temperature difference between the water temperature and air temperature should create near dry adiabatic lapse rates through this moisture profile. Light accumulations will be possible along and downwind of the best fetch along the lake/river system. This may also occur along smaller lakes across eastern sections of the forecast area. Further west, there is a smaller potential for this set up along the Mississippi River. Although winds and lift are not as impressive, therefore will leave it out of the forecast for now. Increased low level clouds will be possible and a few snow flurries cannot be completely ruled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Weather Monger Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 First flurries. 37.5 Would love to pick up some accumulation this evening so the AM enhancement is bonus snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
