mackerel_sky Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 44/6 sky has almost totally cleared! If we keep the clear skies for a few hours, might get interesting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should crash as soon as sun goes down, and basically stop and warm a few degrees when clouds come back. But later precip, better chance of problems, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CummingGaSnow Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Probably will be very insignificant down here in the NE Burbs of ATL but figured I'd follow this and give some obs. Currently 44.3/18 here. Much higher dp's compared to you guys in the upstate. I just hope ya'll don't lose power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But later precip, better chance of problems, IMO Temps ALWAYS rise between 3-6 degrees when the clouds come in. So you need to get to mid 20s at least if you want a chance to get anything significant. I don't see that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackerel_sky Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Noticed there is only patchy cloudcover, and it's cirrus! That will allow good cooling! Winds seem to be coming from ENE now, as opposed to S or SE like early! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess your area is prime, and that elevation certainly helps. I think it'll start as sleet here, but I doubt it gets to 32 here. Your area will undoubtedly get a good bit of ice, hell maybe more than a quarter inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to Spinx tonight - honestly, I don't think this will be a *significant* event - however, this winter has been unusual - after the forecast debacle in December (the drive home from work that day was nice and slipperly - thanks CJ!), it's always best to plan for the unexpected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
