Got about 3 inches here in Dahlonega. Now just rain as temp is 32.9.

WHAT A STORM BOYS

IP mixing in now, beginning of the end
Temp 25.1

 

[MotoWeatherman]

Trying hard to be patient as I wait for the backend snow to begin. Really hope I don't get burned here.

Hang in there. HRRR has been really consistent in wrapping it in between noon and 1pm for your area.

my temp is falling now, at 26.2 with heavier sleet and very gusty winds

 

[FallsLake]

Still a mix of snow and sleet. Flakes get large and then let up.

Edit: But now all sleet, and Nexrad confirms it:

My best friend back in Greenville is confirming this to be the best snowstorm since we were kids. I need numbers from the upstate crowd?

4” Spartanburg
5-6” Greenville
5-7” Northern Spartanburg co
3-4” Clemson
5-6” Pickens

Tiny flakes falling right now, heavier batch of precip to the west, I’ll see if it makes it here

Seems rate dependent here as well.

This dry slot is real though. And with all the mixing in Mississippi, what’s to keep that from not being an issue here?

Confused as to how you are at 1" and Liberty is at 6". Aren't you close to Liberty ?

We transitioned to snow about an hour or 2 later than forecasted and now we are primarily sleet/ZR mix

 

[BullCityWx]

I cleaned the snow off the cars before the ice comes and this is the lightest snow I can remember in a long time.

Looks like we have eaten the dry air away finally. Was just flurries for an hour. 23/7

More cold air here as a result of the wedge....as soon as 850 drop below zero, we will get snow here....all models have been consistent with that. The problem with parts of AL/MS is that it's not cold enough closer to the surface.

It is still absolutely throwing down. NWS says 8-12 today. With 10” on the ground, I think I’ll make an easy run at 15+

 

[nbellenburg]

Around the Clemson area maybe an inch. Haven’t had the chance to go outside yet. Mostly sleet right now I can hear the pellets hitting my I

I'm at 4" of snow+sleet in Southern Greenville county. Unless Clemson has a dome over it, there are higher amounts there.

Cooold rain. 34 F. There's no ice on the limbs, but the wind just caused another branch to break.
