Snow shower coverage progressively dropping off over successive HRRR runs early tomorrow in NC corroborating what I'm seeing on verifiable soundings from tonight. Even still, just because the model doesn't explicitly depict anything in its forecast fields &/or there are no radar returns doesn't mean it may not be snowing especially with a DGZ so low like this.

Like @ForsythSnow said it was coming down kinda hard here for a second with no radar returns. Hopefully what’s coming from the west delivers the goods.
How about for SC?
HRRR still shows snow showers tommorow morning in GA.
Absolutely not. We would have had a half inch to an inch had it stuck. I’ve got some crust on the deck, that’s it.
If you got as much water everywhere as we do here, it's gonna take a true miracle to get any accums. Gotta flash freeze the mini lakes first lol
Seeing a couple of mPing reports of snow near Huntsville, AL.
That looks like February of last year.
Why is it backing off lol it had the right idea before

Lol I also noticed this. They say a broken clock is right twice a day, apparently this broken clock found a way to be wrong all the time!
Pretty good flizzard at the in laws place in acworth.

Back to a light flizzard here not much of anything on radar
mPing report of snow in Dalton, Georgia.
Looks good still, HRRR has a band of on and off flurries going right through the middle of the state. Its all available on tropical tidbits
Looking at that, I’m honestly not to worried about tomorrow, it seems to be handling the snow out west very poorly given how low those DGZs are, i just want some flurries to fall, while those big convective bursts were nice and all on previous runs, low expectations are needed in a setup like this

Nearly 20 degree drop in less than 30 minutes in the NRV. The wind is quite fierce

Currently slogging my way through torrential downpours near the fringe of the warm sector, hoping that this gives me some of that sweet white gold tomorrow morning.

My apologies but what is NRV ?
Thanks for the replies. My first impression was that it was fake news and was why I said "supposed" snow in Marietta, but wanted to make sure from those in Atlanta. Did it snow and stick anywhere near that much anywhere in GA outside of the mountains?
Hilarious, I thought it was upgraded

Yeah, I think the HRRR may pan out best tomorrow for NC if radar returns and mPing reports out west are any indication, but not necessarily for the right reasons. Pretty clear that there's been a bias in the model that doesn't get corrected until hour 0, which to me screams a problem with the model's physics/boundary layer than with any data it's ingested: (check out over Mississippi)
But it's pretty obvious looking west that even the CAMs are clearly missing some of the forcing for ascent in the low levels, so I suspect that we'll still see flurries across the area, even if the HRRR had its dewpoints too warm.

The snow has arrived
Thanks for the report and congrats, but near as much as what that pic has? That looks like it could be an inch or even more!

mPing report of snow near Oneonta, AL.
mPing report of snow in Atlanta.
It almost looks like the cold air spilling in from the west-southwest. This takes a little bit of the down sloping away. The wind just shifted here and is now coming from the west. I actually wonder if we can crash temps quick enough here over the next hour if there might be a few flakes here this evening
mPing report of snow near Johns Creek.
