DixieBlizzard Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Nice pics Ben. Wow, that was fast! Did you know: If you look under a friggin spotlight long enough, you can actually spot small fibers of "something" floating through through the air? Lord, I need a new hobby!!

EmersonGA Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Half inch already. Havent seen it this heavy in years. I guess this is the precip finger that everyone talked about. I hope so cause this would make a good appetizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATkeL Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Heavy band finished moving through, back to light to moderate snow here about 1.5mi S of KPDK. Whoever gets under that band the longest is going to be a very happy weenie. Hi neighbor! I'm just south of you, off Druid Hills and Roxboro. So far, so good, eh? I'm loving how the band is widening as it moves over us. Still moderate snow here and the temp continues to drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generelz Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Hi neighbor! I'm just south of you, off Druid Hills and Roxboro. So far, so good, eh? I'm loving how the band is widening as it moves over us. Still moderate snow here and the temp continues to drop. Howdy neighbor, indeed! I'm loving the current trends. Hope that band can sit over us a little longer, maybe there is a chance we'll bust on the high side for once here. As the tail end of that heavy band moved through the wind picked up and temp dropped a little bit.

Itunis Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Flurries have started up here, very anemic looking flakes thanks to the dry air. Just measured 1" on the back deck. 33 minutes from first flakes to an inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWY316wx Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Almost 2" I would say here on my grill. I see a red cell crossing the Alabama - Georgia line just north of I-20. I bet there is some thunder snow there. Saw on t.v. they reported thunder snow in Vinings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Weather Monger Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Gotta love how this I-20 band keeps expanding northward while the southern edge is only creeping north. 27 2+ in the bank sn+ still. Dry fluffy snow with no sign of the dreaded sleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookout Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 How quickly the conditions went down here has been pretty remarkable. Heavy snow with low visibilities and a lot of wind. A surprising amount of wind in fact. Just took a walk in the field and winds are probably gusting to 25 to 30mph out of the southeast. (no obstruction in the field for nearly a half mile) Obviously caused by this band but it's remarkable. Reminds me of the blizzard of 93 to be honest...although that happened in the daytime here.
