Wintry Feb 17-19 Smastsmasher Snow/Ice

[HDGator]

This was a beautiful snowfall. An old school snow I guess you could say. We ended up with about 5 inches. We have changed to freezing rain now. It coming to an end. We have an inch of compacted sleet and the 5 inches of snow on top of that. What an awesome week!

That's awesome! Glad you scored a real snowfall in bama.
I hope you enjoy it!

I'll stick this tweet thread in here wrt the warm nose at KGSO tomorrow morning because I don't wanna retype all this lol. Spent basically all day working on getting this data right, hope y'all enjoy. Definitely gonna be closely watching for the KGSO sounding tomorrow morning.

Nice info! I’ve found similar at ATL, where max 850 was about +8C and that I think was toward the end. +3 to +6 was more of the meat and potatoes there. Colder than that and sleet was favored.

Heavy sleet, already accumulation

Starting to glaze a little on elevated surfaces.
Every thing else is wet.

Ended up with 4 inches of snow here on the Plateau in East Tennessee, that fell in about 3 hours to had some big time rates. Then transitioned from sleet to zr to now rain and 33.1.

Officially icing here in Southern Wake county. Was 32.4 with a 32.0 dewey at 5. Now 32.0 and dewey is 31.6 with a light glaze on the porch railings and car

Getting freezing rain. Temp has dropped to 31.8 and my side deck is starting to ice up. Honestly can't believe I would drop anymore. Also the RDU airport is now reporting freezing rain.

stout NE wind fairly steady between 5-10 with gusts to 15-20 the past hour. Very heavy freezing rain.

Many were getting worried about all those recent HRRR runs backing off to the NW w/ the ZR accrual.

Even the most recent 9z HRRR showed basically no icing SE of Greensboro, and freezing rain is being reported in Raleigh.

I see why the models had a minimum here. Moisture has split the foothills. very lgt ZR 29.4/28

Yep, oth the lighter ZR you're sseing is a lot more likely to stick on elevated surfaces per capita than moderate-heavy freezing rain.

29.8 here. I just stepped outside and I can hear the familiar noise of tree limbs crackling under the ice--so I guess I have some accrual already.

Glaze on everything here...and it’s windy. Start the countdown.
