Enjoy it Tony. You have waited too long.

[olafminesaw]

HRRR has the sleet line push north quite early but then gets pushed back south when  the heavier rates arrive

 

[NorthHillsWx]

Pretty much all of N Ga is sleet, not snow 

[Regan]

Thought this was helpful

Tunica, MS, and Memphis went from light sleet/mix last hour to light snow currently.
 Skies have become mostly cloudy in last hour here 40 miles NE of ATL. I’m excited about the possibilities! Temps near 32 but dewpoints are well down into the teens.

So you did go ! Good for you!! May you get crushed with heavy sleet and snow . You definitely deserve it!

Already light sleet on the border of central GA and northern midlands of SC.

What radar sites is best for snow tracking? NWS?

Yeah it is and it looks like a monster.

Sleet has turned to snow in Atlanta.

[AppalachianWedge]

Precip downstream may be helping to saturate the column. 70% humidity already in Advance, NC and still several hours from onset.

Yeah web cams look like its all snow I-20 N and PLSN south of there.  If you extrapolate the obs in AL and radar I think I-20 N might see a 2 hour period of decent snow.  S of there probably no

[WXNewton]

A good friend of mine just posted this from Northwest Arkansas Bentonville area. He estimate 6 to 7 in and still snowing.

[donsutherland1]

Atlanta has gone over to light snow.

[Flum]

Definitely snow in Atlanta at this point. What are the chances that temps stay low enough for it to stick around for a while?

I love when you pop in here  Enjoy!!

[lilj4425]

What’s that blue stuff on the radar headed this way? Should I be concerned? 

[BooneWX]

Today is the day. Good or bad, I enjoyed the ride, folks. 

[olafminesaw]

Snow being reported well south of Atlanta. Meanwhile the NAM...(Which had onset a few hours later)

Big Don popping in! Don when was the last snow for Atlanta that was measurable?

[EarlGrey]

Is there a correlation with snowing in GA to how much it can snow in NC?

[wake4est]

I am truly expecting here in southern Wake a brief burst of snow that quickly changes to sleet, then freezing rain. I would not be surprised to see over .25" zr here with almost no ground coverage of snow.

That being said, I could see something like the RGEM is showing. If it stays all snow, its gonna total 4". RGEM keeps the transition line down in Harnett
