Must be the snow cover in Atlanta. ??‍

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

RGEM looks like it’s on an island. WRF may be the nail in the coffin for North Georgia.

Even if I don't see snow for Christmas I'm just glad to feel the "Christmas Chill". I hope you guys north of me have a nice white Christmas

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?

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.

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.

i want a flurry ?
