Wintry 1/9-12 Winter Potential Great Dane or Yorkie

We are stuck at 29. Might hit 30 later. If it decides it wants to ZR later if might be lights out
 
Atleast from what I can tell this doesn’t look to be a widespread power outage storm
Not yet. Wait until after dark in NC and SC. That map will a lot like it did on Sept. 27, just in a different and bigger area. The stuff back in GA and AL will fall here as freezing rain.
 
The upstate is finally gonna get heavy consistent rates here in a few hours... the problem is we probably stay sleet at that point, but it's not a given, could go back to snow. I wouldn't give up hope yet.
Rates have dropped off here but i'm still lighting snowing after a brief period of mixing with sleet.
No way that's happening
 
Ice accrual update? Seems to be doing a decent amount of freezing rain but little accrual currently…does that change as we go into the late afternoon evening-will we start to see issues, or will we remain at status quo? Interested in current thoughts…?
 
Light Freezing Rain in Jasper. Temp at 30. Hoping lights stay on! Had enough snow to cover roads and grass, but less than an inch. That part is disappointing. Still pretty to see and it has been a long time coming. Maybe we will switch back later … I can always hope!

It is great to see so much of the board scoring and in many places over performing expectations!

It is amazing how much more snow ATL got, not rubbing it in,,, just bizarre modeling.

We're getting the same here. Everything is glazing over rapidly and I'm seeing some weight on trees/leaves now. Not much, but it's a noticeable difference.

My location has been rain and drizzle, elevated surfaces are melting as well. Driveways and sidewalks are clearing up. Not cold enough I believe for ice to form. I have fluctuated between 30 and 32 the past two hours with only melting as a result. Once the sun gets lower in the sky and heavier precip comes in things might change, as of now, no ice accrual.
 
All short term models show a crippling ice storm for Northeast GA and the upstate of SC...
Not gonna happen... anything that's not snow will be sleet in these's area... 825mb to the surface is way too cold and the warm nose is way too thin for freezing rain. (imo)

Could briefly see some freezing rain before the 850's crash here in an hour or two though.
 

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that surface low is south of what pretty much every model had 24-48 hours ago. I recall even the furthest south models had the surface low right on the coast, but this is a good few miles offshore. I may be making a mountain out of a molehill, though.

Same here...heavy rates about to show up at the wrong time I'm afraid. Maybe not
