Wintry 2/11-2/12 ULL Magic or More Cold Rain

[J.C.]

So if the short range models are correct, that massive backend precip is going to basically die out and be light showers when it rolls through here? Based on the current radar, I shouldn't see that much more rain at all.

Someone just posted that it's snowing in South Catawba NC??

Possibly seeing sleet and reporting it incorrectly.

As in southern Catawba? I could’ve swore I saw some flakes my parents near Cherryville. Their house sits at 1010 ft so maybe?

That 37 in S MS is pretty impressive.

Maybe it’s one of those deals where there’s some kind of energy transfer to a new LP off the Atlantic coast, thus it essentially eroding the back end of the precipitation.

 

[Darklordsuperstorm]

Snow or no snow. This is a hell of a system. The wind has been wild all day. Very dynamic upper level low.

Sure enough cold core.

40.5/38.7 had a brief period of heavy rain/wind mixed with some sleet a few mins ago. I could hear it pelting against my bedroom window, but I stepped outside for a moment to verify it. It’s tapering off now.

sleet/ice sticking on cars and grounds

Where is this at? Location??

Maggie valley

 

[Oconeexman]

Some areas were in the mid 50's at the onset in Miss. Now nearly a 20 degree drop. Thats pretty impressive

 

[SnowQueen]

Have fallen to 46/40 DP sux!

 

[Drizzle Snizzle]

Surprised I don't see any pinks or whites on radar in Southern Mississippi. I figured with temps around 36 there may be some mixing.

 

[Parker]

Let’s see some pics Accu ? , for those of us looking at rain and 43.

Still dropping... 38.6/36.4 ENE 16G31

Looking at a cam of Waynesville which is close to where Accu is, looks like just wet conditions.

what part of Atlanta are you in. I'm not seeing any reporting stations below 40.

I know, right? And gusts well over 50??

 

[SnowwxAtl]

Where is the low now?

He might be on top of Stone Mountain.

My family and I spend a lot of time in that area and I can tell you, I’ve seen a number of times that Waynesville will have rain while Maggie Valley has frozen precip.

Yeah it looks like Maggie Valley is a few hundred feet higher.

Kind of what I was thinking. Ive searched all over and haven't found any reports of sleet or mixing.

 

[strongwxnc]

[Wildboutsnow]

I hear thunder and see lightning southish of me. Probably Athens.

 

[Showmeyourtds]

He might be on top of Stone Mountain.

…that ain’t Atlanta…

Even then, I doubt you get that much of a temperature variance there with it being only an additional 700 ft or so higher than most of the surrounding areas

 

[HugeSnowStick]

The air port had a gust to 47 ronnie and I am in a location that is usually colder,,Capice???

Temp ranges from weather stations around northern Georgia.

800-1500' - 39-43F
1500-3000' - 35-38F
3000'+ - 33-34F

 

[SD]

Just started as snow!







Is what I would be saying if it were colder instead 50 and rain

Thunder here also

Looks like flakes are falling on the Waynesville, NC cam.

Its always interesting to see how much elevation is affecting temperatures in given weather situations, it definitely varies. With the kind of wind we are having, temperatures at similar elevations should be within .5 degrees of each other or less. Anything outside that range is certainly incorrect. There are two home weather stations on Sweat Mountain, 2.8 miles north of me, at around 1500-1600', both are 38.1F, 2.5F colder then me at 1135'.

 

[DixieBlizzard]

What part of Atlanta are you in?

His fridge because I have elevation and its still 39f here and 70 miles north,

 

[Ron Burgundy]

being North does not always cut it sister, look at southern MS???

Then tell us where you are at 36F with 50+ mph wind gusts. We are dying to know.
