18Z GFS: generous sleet N GA/NW SC with heaviest 0.7-0.9” Lawrenceville, GA, to Greenwood, SC: @dsaurincluded in sleet area again…May the sleet be with you!

 Would be heaviest and most widespread sleet for at least N GA since at the very least 2/12-13/2014:

Personally, I'm a big fan of sleet.  It's like vintage snow.  And never lost power during a sleet storm.  ❄

Pretty much noise there.

Wowzers!  The "noise" is in here!  I stepped away for a day and catching up on 15 pages of model waffling and wailing was painful.  But hey, nobody suffers like the SE forum.  So I'm proud of all of you.  Well done.  

On another note, I'm riding the GFS to the end.  Bring me my 3-5 inches of fluff please!

I think everything (screw you NAM) is coming into agreement on a minor-moderate system for most on the forum

That might be the best GFS runs all day.

Definitely extends further southeast.

Vintage snow! I like that.

GFS was colder but very minimal track changes. Maybe a tick south

Thanks to those wishing me a good sleet storm.  I have the moles in a sleet thrum, I'm doing a sleet dance...not something anyone wants to see, and I'm pulling this one in big time, lol.  To those that don't know, my first big thrill storm was pure sleet back in 60, I think Larry and I worked out.  The clouds lowered to the roof tops as I wait by the car to ride to school....never saw clouds that low except when crossing Mont Eagle,  and then whoof, a ton of sleet just  fell all at once.  It was roaring and at least an inch..surely more.. fell in a few minutes.  I was a crossing guard at the bottom of a huge hill, at Inman school, for those in Atl, and I was walking the kiddies across the street while cars came down it like bumper cars, lol.  We hide behind a wall until the latest fool slid into the curb and I'd run them across, then wait for the next chance.  It was fabulous....beyond amazing.. I was in paradise and ever since, going on 65 years I guess, it's been my favorite ever.  Way better than snow.  Sleet is pure joy to me, and I'd trade 8 inches of pretty but worthless snow, for an inch of sleety concrete every time.  So, yeah, I'm a sicko, but we all have our little proclivities...

Dat gradient tho, lawd. Still I’ll take it. 

[WiseWeather]

Can someone remind me if this system is similar to the christmas 2010 storm? If my memory serves me correctly there was indications that there was a storm early but in the days leading up to it it was barely showing no precipitation and 24hrs out it started slowly rising again.

I think the Christmas storm had a clean phase and went up the coast bombing out somewhat.

I think you are thinking about the Feb 2010 storm that gave mby (at the time)in the midlands 9" of snow that had melted by brunch the next morning. It was only about .40ish in liquid but it was cold and that was the only time I knew for 2 weeks that it was going to snow, it was just a matter of how much moisture we would have. There were a lot of meltdowns then too

[Brick Tamland]

Good run from the Euro finally. Hope this is the start of good trends.

A classic Carolina look! We’ve missed it! Oh we (south of 85 folk) hate it, but we haven’t tracked in so long it looks beautiful 

[BooneWX]

Somewhere along that I-85 corridor west of Charlotte is going to get smacked. Almost every model is showing a stout deform band setting up in that area. Shelby might end up being a sweet spot for more than just high school football.
