Yep has warmed to 61 here

 

[Thor]

Drops quick when it pushes back through.

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

2014 vibes if this verifies here ?

 

[Weatherlover92]

These wind chills are far more impressive than the actual cold itself. Subzero wind chills taking over half the country.

 

[WeatherNC]

Drops quick when it pushes back through.

Same here, at a good clip but starting to level off. For once, not jelly for areas west of me with the cold that’s inbound. Absent a fresh snowpack, enjoy the single digits ++wind.

 

[Tarheel1]

Currently. -10
Coldest real temp I’ve experienced is -17 twice in 3 winters here. Hopefully we can beat that !

Hourly forecast says you’re leveling off right here but that feels like temp is in the -30’s ?

 

[JLL1973]

Front about to roll through here in next few minutes. Let’s see how gas the temps drop. 46 now

 

[Fountainguy97]

Just got the crawlspace sealed up. Battened down for nearly a 36hr period at or below 0! Strange because it's a balmy 43 right now. doesnt feel like an impending snowstorm is on the way.

 

[RBR71]

Yeah this first little front pushing back through was more impressive than I thought it was gonna be, down to 47 just like that.

 

[NCSNOW]

It’s going to be a pretty high RH night and it is very damp outside. Beginning to wonder about a flash freeze, which is absurd to even consider in most of NC but is applicable here.

Fridays High will be at 12:01 am here tonight. Sitting in upper 30s all day at best with wind wept showers. Fog is entrenching itself now. Finally lost showers and breeze past hour or so.

Interesting rain band about to come through Chattanooga… Might be a sign of a little more precip than modeled.

This is a huge area of ridiculously low wind chills and its only goingto get bigger by tomorrow morning

 

[WSW]

...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM THIS EVENING TO 6 AM CST FRIDAY... ...WIND CHILL WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM THIS EVENING TO NOON CST FRIDAY...

* WHAT...For the Winter Storm Warning, heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations of up to two inches, with pockets of up to 4 inches. Winds gusting as high as 40 mph. For the Wind Chill Warning, dangerously cold wind chills expected. Wind chills as low as 25 below zero.

Seems like a low amount to issue a WSW.

 

[DadOfJax]

Seems like a low amount to issue a WSW.

Fits the criteria to issue it, good call by them.

 

[WSW]

Yeah different criteria for different parts of the county I suppose. I think I'm just used to 6+ inches for WSW

 

[DobsonCityWx]

Kinda excited to see a heavy CAD get destroyed by Arctic air. This will be a first for me. Not many things can do that quickly. The fog and light rain is intense tonight.

 

[SD]

here are a few city zooms for temps tomorrow at 8am from the 18z HRRR (I missed GSP I will get it tonight with the 0z run)
Atlanta area

Birmingham


Nashville


Columbia

Charlotte


Huntsville


Greensboro


Memphis

Raleigh

 

[ChattaVOL]

HRRR has underdone the precip v.s. Current radar. Interesting to see how that plays out.

 

[NCHighCountryWX]

 

[SD]

For those of us east of the apps HRRR has Saturday morning as our coldest which makes sense. Ive only seen single digits with no snow cover once that I can remember

It's a different kind of cold. Snot freezes instantly in your nose when you walk outside. Think I got down to 8 degrees in 2014. Kind of looking forward to it.

I'll be honest I am looking forward to it. Will reassess this about 24 hours from now

 

[SD]

Getting some snow reports deep into MS this evening

Yea. It's cool for a few minutes and then you just want to go inside.

 

[SD]

HRRR crushing on wind gusts tomorrow

 

[BullCityWx]

Looks like real time obs and the HRRR match up pretty good on front timing

 

[StormStalker]

My uncle says it’s snowing in Corinth, MS.

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

West Tennessee seeing some nice action

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Those greens flip so fast on radar along that front. Seems like cold chasing moisture can work out with such a rare airmass. Still no match for the mountains later but pretty gnarly

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

That front is hauling azz

 

[JLL1973]

I lost power 30 seconds into the frontal passage. Been snowing pretty good here last half hour or so

keep me updated over here on any snow u see cause ill get what u get a little after

 

[ChattaVOL]

Roads in Memphis are horrible per reports on twitter

 

[Deleted member 609]

It's still drizzling outside. Ground is completely wet. Everything should be completely frozen tomorrow unless it dries up overnight.

 

[JLL1973]

Yes it is

How was your wind? I’m concerned about losing power here too

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Look how fast that cold air floods in and sends those streamers blue. Nashville area flipped quick
