Wintry More SE Snow ? (1/16-1/18)

[Sandbar]

What a unique winter so far. An early December surprise in the deep south, a coastal bomb from Georgia up the coast and now a super clipper hybrid that was another WOW storm. Can't imagine what's left with February and you never know about early March!

 

[Cary_Snow95]

Nice man. You guys did great over that way. I’m happy with my 4ish.

Thanks man. I hate y’all had issues accumulating in the beginning but 4 is still a huge win! This winter will be one I think we will reference in future years between the cold arctic outbreaks and the last two storms. Much more than I expected going into this season. I hope you squeeze out another inch as this back builds a bit and this band to our west looks to be gaining some steam

 

[ColaSnow]

Well, Western Midlands should be seeing accumulating snow through the next few hours. Things slowly getting white here in Lexington and heavier returns on the way.

Temperatures not a problem.

See! You may make something out of this afterall. Unfortunately, that band doesn't look to extend out towards my way.

Yeah the band to the west over Chatham and Orange counties is intensifying can certainly drop another 0.5" or so and push cold rain closer to 5"

 

[RBR71]

And the radar is back-building. Could pick up another .25-.5”.

Yeah man radar is definitely improving and I believe it's going to fill in back up this way.... precip is increasing not decreasing

 

[Webberweather53]

This band over Pittsboro-Hillsborough looks better w/ every frame, and another band of snow is evident over the Triad. I'm ready for a little dessert.

 

[Rain Cold]

Yeah, this system was a lot of fun. Growing up, I remember watching the weathermen scrambling to increase totals as the event was imminent or underway. This happened frequently but has been largely absent of late. It was a lot of fun this time. Kind of nostalgic.

 

[SimeonNC]

It's still snowing where I'm at, wow.

 

[RBR71]

snowing again.... and those bands just keep on expanding.

 

[Alex]

I'm waking up from a nap, but the METARS is showing mid-20s and light snow just west of Pittsboro. Also, there are numerous power outages already reported around town, and the power here at my folks place is trying to quit too. Gonna be an interesting night if this keeps up!

6" in my neighborhood. All the heart breaks, super late nights, and model analyzing is worth it just to get one of these every once in a while. I've been living the dream tonight. These are my happiest days

This is one to remember for a while.

 

[Storm5]

No more complaining for another oh, two or three years lol.

Doubt that. Maybe from you but I know some that will 100 percent ----- starting next month lol

I saw a couple on Facebook that love a good ole fashion Heat ridge with blazing temps having fun in the snow . They are a perfect match. I know what southernwx is sending them for their wedding gift ....

Congrats to everyone that got snow today

Those milk sandwiches get old after the first big snow.

 

[Psalm 148:8]

Winner winner chicken dinner! Here in Troup County GA!!! Bullseye!!! Heaviest snow in Ga!!! 2 days off from school ... at least! I shall not complain the rest of the winter!!! Unless a storm system screws up my Saturday nite Jan 27th!!! First time in years... bought a ball gown, shoes.... Going to a fundraiser ball! So bank the next system to come in as a score... that’s typically my luck. :/

 

[NCSNOW]

Been snowing here for 16 hours now . Started 5:40 am and probably had a couple hours of flurries mixed with nothing late this afternoon .

 

[deltadog03]

I wanna say thank you too all the amazing people on this site. Made for an awesome system to track. Got nearly 1". No complaints from me. My forecast map did ok from what I can tell as well. Great job everyone

Weren't you the first met down there to mention snow?

 

[Cary_Snow95]

This one will rank very high on my all-time list for a number of reasons. Such an interesting storm.

I love the look on people’s face when you tell them a high forecast and they respond with “but the news said”

 

[EastAtlwx]

Ended up with 1.2 inches here in conyers which made it on FFC official snowfall map so that was cool.

 

[RBR71]

Took one last measurement before calling it a day.... just shy of 4, right at 3.75. Still snowing would love to get .25, would be 2nd 4" snow this season.

Excellent job Deltadog, 1300, and Webber with your forecasts! Impressive!

 

[SD]

Still a little light snow falling average measurement 3.75 probably had 6+ fall today. Awesome radar out of morehead city right now. Sounds and obx are going to get a good one tonight

from Brad P's facebook... shows the snow hole in all its ugly glory:

 

[Jon]

Got 7” as of 10pm. Verified with my call of 6-10” in the area. This is one for the record books and will live on in SE lore for a long time. Congrats everyone and it’s been fun!

damn, I was a little disappointed with their last tour... hopefully they're back up and rocking this year.

 

[SoutheastRidge]

Mesoscale discussion from SPC saying over 1 inch per hour between 11pm and 4am in NE NC.

 

[stormcentral]

This storm will be remembered in SE TN for closing school for 3 days. Lol

nothing the kids like more than going sledding on supercold gravel roads.. lol

 

[NCSNOW]

Ended up 7.5 to 8. Awesome storm and felt good tracking an overperformer with nothing but posotive trends all the way in for a change. Great job by alot guys on here. Some tv mets would do a better job reading from here instead of lock stepping with nws. Best part is seeing alot others cash in. Hopefully we can rack up 1 or 2 more before the mosquitoes and weeds return

 

[Brett]

NWS busted big time here over 4” and pouring snow still at 23 degrees

 

[campamy]

But if you're in Bradley on a side road like I am it's still a mess. My kids were sledding on a snow covered road at 4 pm today.

 

[setxwx]

since the storm is almost over, I figured a little more jest, frivolity can be thrown back into comments, instead of straightforward analysis and cold observation.. (get it, 'cold' observation?)...

 

[RollTide18]

Ended up with a 3 inch total in Montgomery, which along with 2/12/10 is the most since '93. We've seen two 3"+ snow events this decade, that's crazy and I'm not even counting the 1" events such as 1/28/14 and 12/08/17.

Personally this is right up there with 2/12/10 and I actually may put this at #1 because of the conditions, the fact that it was freezing combined with the wind and the snow sticking to the roads. Also, it was my first time being in the sweet spot of a snowstorm in Alabama.

yeah, there's nothing like snow, and sub 28 temps... personally I live for teens and heavy snow conditions.. only met here in CHA a very few times in my lifetime. Once, I'd like to have single digits and heavy snow, but probably have to go above 5000 ft in the Smokies for that.
