Tell me what you think, but I actually think this could shift a little south and east. Over GA, SC and in NC. Got to watch trends but could super put RDU in the “sweet spot”

Looks like that hole around the Bham area is slowing filling in.
Check this out. Looks like our energy is about to swing neutral and negatively tilted much sooner Here is the link for the loop and the static shot https://atmos.washington.edu/~ovens/wxloop.cgi?wv_east_common+12

He won’t list it. That’s his thing.

I would probably draw a 5-9 right up the US-1 corridor from Moore County and points N to the VA state line and then push it as far west possibly as Greensboro or Burlington and obviously there's going to be higher isolated amounts. The models currently support this idea in general (even though the 10:1 SLR maps are meh (and rightfully so) and if they trend any wetter we're going to be sitting right in the middle of that ballpark

Yes to all of that. I'm super excited! We're overdue.CongratsI know how frustrating it must be to live in that area during the winter time. I used to live in west central ga and always felt bad for Montgomery area during winter. I knew your area was looking good based off radar trends. Hope you guys get some more.
It's still coming down hard here.

Took a little walk and let me tell you, it is cold!! Snow blowing in face and temps below 20! Starting to stick to road as well!
How about Columbia SC? What makes you think it will be an increase.
Yall are getting slammed in Montgomery and on east. You guys missed the one in December.

I feel like Atlanta is right on the border of getting some good snowfall tonight. Radar trends are looking so good. Gonna be interesting to see how this all plays out.
I would agree
I think it’s about to try and go negatively tilted quicker

After this storm i believe nearly everyone on this board will have seen snow this year. Amazing winter. We may not see another winter like this in our lifetimes.

Is it good that the neg tilt is gonna happen quicker?

Steady, light to moderate snow in north ATL, inside the perimeter. Really hasn’t ever stopped, but never gotten too heavy either. About a 1/2” so far, but flakes are a little bigger and roads getting coated. Streets are a ghost town now so that is good!
Better

Yep I agree. And the Euro is wetter this run too w/ 0.5" QPF in Raleigh. The HRRR is even more bullish w/ 0.6-0.7" and it's still coming down.
The Euro amped up the totals yet again...

Euro upped precip totals. Has an 11” lollipop just west of RDU

Is that because the precip kinda goes stationary as the system rotates around? Kinda like when you get under a deformation band?

Trying to tamper expectations here in Cary but this is looking really darn exciting

Awesome. Hopefully we can see a little more here in Athens...light snow is falling now.
Showing similar for my neck of the woods, as well.

I 10 west bound over the bay way pin mobile is closed due to accident and icy road conditions. Met on fox 10 out of mobile says cars are icing up with freezing rain and sleet. Could be a big problem tomorrow as it is only going to get above freezing for a couple hours tomorrow towards mid day.
Light snow again in Jacksonville Al.

If the Euro totals are true for Atlanta and my area, it's going to have to average about 3/8" an hour for the next 6.5 hours. I have 3/8" total now after 4 hours of snowfall. I don't see it. Maybe we double or get close to one inch.
I agree. I also wouldn’t be surprised if the heavier band is a bit further south near CSG to MCN either

Good Luck Chris if you get a heavier band your way.

I'm really hoping you score out of this, you certainly deserve a good snow in Macon!
Ty I hope so. We shall see

I am just hoping a heavier band sets up to reach those totals.
NWS GSP: "
As of 1230 AM EST Wednesday: Still trying to hit the moving
target. Once again, the new model guidance comes in with more precip
than previously thought, continuing the upward trend in snowfall
potential. Have not made any changes to temps, precip prob, or
snow amount with this update. What I find most interesting is how
the models develop the precip across the Piedmont in the pre-dawn
hours and around daybreak. Pay no attention to the precip upstream
moving from Alabama into Georgia, because that`s not what is going
to get us. Instead, the models show the precip blossoming across
the Piedmont, right over the top of us, in the 09Z to 12Z time
frame. Most impressive if it actually happens that way."
