Regan Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 @EarlGrey I can’t answer that specifically other than the models aren’t perfect. They often contradict themselves between real time precip type vs soundings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwlee7 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 So, things are pretty much over for DFW (near the airport) now. I ended up getting another 1/2 inch or so of snow over night and there are a very few flakes mixed with light “frizzle” falling right now. Total for my house (8.3 miles NNE of the DFW) is we’ll call it 1.75” of accumulation. This is slightly under the NWS forecast of 2 to 5 inches. It will be interesting to see if the “what happens in Dallas happens in Raleigh” hypothesis holds true. I needed to be about 30 miles north of here to have really cashed in so that part sounds familiar. There’s definitely enough to play in so your kids can still have fun though. Thanks for letting me hang back out with you for the event and I will be reading to see how it all shakes out for the SE. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a5ehren Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Dusting here in north ATL already. Still some sleet mixed in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDawg Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 That band SW of Atlanta is putting down accumulating snow in places that haven't seen it in a long time. Have seen reports of heavy snow covered roads as far as 50+ miles south of Atlanta. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherfide Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 28.9, snowing and sleeting, about .75" so far. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! Just woke up and looked out window. Can see a tiny accumulation on roofs, grass, and vehicles of what I assume is sleet here 40 miles NE of Atlanta in N Gwinnett county (2 miles S of I-85 and 6 miles N of Lawrenceville). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUNYGRAD Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 quick glance----NAM 3K maybe a little too warm at mid-levels---temperature. But also, a little drier on actual sounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still a possibility, but at least Atlanta will have its first meaurable snowfall in just over two years. Charlotte's record 1,076-day streak without measurable snowfall should also end later today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wake4est Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 At my location, NWS point 'n' click has less than 0.5" of snow and between 0.1" - 0.3" of freezing rain. Has it changing to all zr after midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The heavy bands keep setting up south of ATL this morning, seems like heavier precip by me. That should start to head up your way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
