23F at the sfc in Spartanburg.....impressive
WNC special this run. Hopefully it will work a lil south by go time less amped so more can get some snow.

There is always going to be backend snow...
Pooh, pooh run for the greater Atlanta area. Still close, but I'm not a fan of the NW trend this early.
Still some love with the upper low passage though.

GFS is colder on the surface this run for most of the storm too. Temps in the lower 20s now.

Anyone have sleet map?

I mean you aren’t going to have identical runs every 6 hours. It’s going to waffle. It’s not going to be the 10 inch north GA storm from the 6z, that’s highly unlikely.
One run is not a trend.

Yeah, that's basically February 2014, except a bit further north because that storm was a disaster where I live (which thankfully, I was somewhere else during that storm). I'll pass on the 1"+ ice, even though 30's and rain would suck.
Don't like the way the storm is amplifying and ticking NW though. Oof. Maybe I shouldn't have talked.
Maybe the Euro can be suppressed again.

Wild how the run ended up being cooler. That wedge has ice storm written all over it for parts of South Carolina.
I agree...let's see what the Canadian, Ukmet has to stay...the GFS was overly amped to me.

Be mindful that the GFS had sleet as the precip type but it was still snow soundings for mby so it could be the same for you.
MAJOR SC midlands ice storm I can see this happening here before a snowstorm just saying??
Please check your sounding closely. GFS says I am mixing here but the sounding is still snow.
Yes… I just looked at mine and it’s all snow… I would guess the sleet line is just to me south towards Pageland… I have a feeling that somewhere in this there’s gonna be an area of very heavy sleet
What a thump. Classic mixed bag power pole snapper. Oof

Let’s see what the GEFS shows. It’s shown more flatter solutions over northern solutions the last several runs going against the GFS OP

Don't get too caught up in panic over ice accrual predictions at this range. It's such a thin medium area of precip to forecast just how much you'll get. Plain rain or snow amounts are easier to model at this point than ice.
This run is still mainly snow for CLT metro… based on the soundings.
