View attachment 101121Forest City, AR and maybe roads becoming slick with the red/orange on the map?

Nice to see it sticking to those surfaces in the middle of the day.

Verbatim thats 1.5-2.5 per hour rates under the upper level low around CLT/north, lots of omega in the DGZ as well

Advisories keep expanding

Looking forward to seeing some flakes. Can’t get expectations too high but anything will do after these awful December temps.

So torn on what I want to do. Haven’t seen snow in Chapel Hill in quite a while but have the option to spend a few days in Boone..

Pack up and go, closer to the state line the better

Easy choice. Go to Boone. No guarantee you will get another opportunity like this for this winter.

Lol the snow is gonna be like cement, gonna be hard to accumulate, those ratios suck !!

 

[EmersonGA]

yeah it's not like Charlotte with all the mountains they have to the west. What's gonna keep the cold air from reaching Atlanta ?!

Lookout mountain does hinder it somewhat but we should do well with this set up. Anything to get the skunk off at this point will do.

I hoping this system starts to over-perform to the west. Time to start watching radar and observations.

I'm just wondering due to the lack of Cold air to support snow in the Upstate, if those areas could see sleet? I'm speaking of North of 85. Below there I think has no chance at anything frozen.

Always with cold air funneling from the west up and over the apps there are issues with getting that air down the mountain to meet the moisture. It’s tough being directly on the Lee side during a setup like this. There’s always a bit of a skip. The coldness of the air is irrelevant.

I hate TWC

 

[tucker]

I’m gonna have a great view from the 20th floor in Cherokee!

Getting home tomorrow to Chattanooga will be interesting.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the pictures of snow in the mountains. I hope someone gets a foot!

I understand that but I've seen many times in upstate ULL bring the cold. Even though not cold enough for snow it could be just cold enough for sleet.

We used to get snow atleast once or twice a year. I’m not sure what it takes now. Even when the cold is in place then we are always part of the warm nose.

 

[Weatherlover92]

Kinda surprised our temp and dp has dropped a couple degrees the past few hrs considering we’re still getting a light SW wind. 61/58

 

[tucker]

Serf plumes double for Chattanooga. Was around 1.3 now 2.8…
