First we get the snow, now we get the (freezing?) fog. Fairly dense.

I saw a report of flurries there before it went over to rain. Roxboro had a few tricks up its sleeve!

Certainly enough to get this picture. A little dark but it's a cool sight seeing the moon though the fog on top of the snow.
Ripping fatties. It’s a miracle!!!

Freezing fog will be no joke overnight. Looks like we drop to 31 for 4 hrs overnight. Definitely hope no one is on the roads beside the DOT.

Gonna have some black ice here from all the snowflakes that melted. I assume further East too into the piedmont of NC.

Currently howling at the snow moon!
We may have more then 4 hours of 31 or at least up my way. Temperature here has already fallen to 32.2 and I only had a high of 34.3 which is a little off from my forecast high of 41.Freezing fog will be no joke overnight.

When I said ripping fatties, I was exaggerating, but I took some pics of the flurries with my flash.

Just looked outside and there is some fairly decent amount of fog out there. Temperature now down to 32. Freezing Fog will definitely be an issue around here tonight.

Super dense fog for sure.

I haven't seen anything but low clouds, surprised since you're probably right up the road from me.Certainly enough to get this picture. A little dark but it's a cool sight seeing the moon though the fog on top of the snow.

It probably has to do with elevation. I'm at about 1200 and seem pretty high relative to the areas within 500 to 1000 feet around. Even 10 to 40 feet makes a difference sometimes
I'm at 1206 according to my GPS app. Dunno how accurate it is.
I just completed my search for accumulating (more than a trace) snow/sleet at KATL when the prevailing winds were from the S. Out of 100+ accumulating events since 1940, I found just 3 and the most recent I could find was way back on 1/13/1968 with 0.2"!
3 prevailing S wind KATL accumulating SN/IP events out of 100+ accumulating events since 1940:
1. 1/13/1968: 0.2" (S winds)(most recent)
2. 3/5/1965: 0.5" (SW winds)
3. 1/10/1953: 1.3" (S winds)(heaviest)
Today would have counted at KATL as S winds prevailed during the precip but there was no more than a T there today.

Here's a condensed summary of the snow reports everyone on this forum (& americanwx) posted earlier today. If you would like to report what you saw in your backyard, please don't hesitate to add to this extensive list, it's very slim pickings for snowfall reports in NW Georgia & extreme NE Alabama right now from what I can tell.
Even if FFC doesn't release a public information statement or total map for GA later, this should be a nice starting point to make a big multi-state map once CoCoRaHS reports trickle in.
I'm hoping to make this look pretty sometime tomorrow, any new report(s) will help immensely.
