The coldest high temp on Christmas in Atlanta was in 1983 with a high of 17, which is pretty remarkable. The warmest Christmas was 75 in 2015 !

In 2015 Columbia was 79! My home in Irmo actually hit 81 if I remember correctly. I'm really looking forward to the chance for Columbia not to get out of the 30's for once
 
12z NAM interesting for Bama. Let’s see if things translate East.

Can someone explain to me why the Icon has been consistently showing this moisture feature in the gulf? Looks like it would cross over me but with no moisture than blossom on the northern gulf coast.

thats an odd look. do you know if those streamers are caused by geography, or is that just an estimation and we just know there will be streamers in the general area. i think you mentioned convection earlier, so maybe its just wherever the convection sets up and then goes downstream?

Little bit of both, favorable areas of convergence favor here, but this stuff could pop up unexpectedly, and yes
I’m honestly wondering if some folks get accumulating snow from those Convective streamers IF the HRRR is right (D-0.5) not bad 0-3km cape with this setup, and it’s not even during peak heating during the day

cool. i was out of town, but several years ago i remember people telling me about a day where it would be sunny, clouds would come up and snow would cover the ground, then sun come back out and it would melt, then it would repeat like that several times, and this was in north ATL metro area. So hoping something like that can happen with this.

Yeah... this is certainly the type of set up that it could happen due to all the energy over the region. I can remember it happening several instances back in the 90s.

Me too. Latest run looks like the GFS with backside changover, however brief it might be.

RGEM really is a best case scenario especially on Christmas Day. It has snow showers diving south from TN into N. GA then moving east into SC. (12z run that is) I’m dubious because right now it seems to be the only model doing this for Christmas Day itself.
 
Seeing these models this is reminding me of exactly how the white Christmas of 2010 played out. Rain then cold crashed in and changed it over. Not saying anyone sees another White Christmas but I think WNC NE GA, and Upstate sees some snow showers out of this Christmas Morning.

Is the image itself considered banter since it’s so ridiculous?

Do you not believe in a Macon bullseye and snow in Mexico Beach, FL? @deltadog03 is licking his chops, I'm sure. ?
