Wintry Jan 15-16 Winter Storm Discussion & Obs

The system is occluding(trying to stack the surface low vertically on the bottom of the upper level low)....that's how you get a double barrel low.
Ok… so what effects does this typically produce in a storm? Stronger, weaker, more or less moisture? Still can’t figure out how this thing Is cutting up through the wedge.
 
Just had a 26.8 mph gust and good grief, didn’t think winds were suppose to really pick up till we’ll after midnight. That may lend some credence to some of those higher indicated gusts if this is how we are starting…..?

ETA: make that 30.9!

For tracking the SLP structure, I find enabling the windstream barbs from the layers tab to be quite useful. It clearly shows the main SLP near Mobile currently and the occluded extension to the NW in Missippi south of Memphis.
 
HRRR is keeping the northern half of Greenville, Spartanburg, and the NW sections of Cherokee county snow for roughly 8 hours in that initial wave.
Chris Justice is leaning very heavy on a warm nose taking over fairly quickly. I haven't seen anything today pointing toward that. In fact as you said everything leaning to more Snow for longer period.
