Suns out on see Wake county, NC

I could be wrong but does it really matter since temps are a complete non issue

 

[Philstorm91]

Accuweather.com has my low getting down to 9° tonight, and NWS point forecast calls for a low of 11°! Brrr!!

 

[superjames1992]

NWS TLH forecast gives Tallahassee a solid shot at beating their all-time record snowfall of 2.8” set back in 1958.

EDIT: The all-time state record is 4” and could also fall further west in the panhandle.

Starting to the radar circle around FFC kinda shrink. Wonder if we’re close to seeing some ground truth in North Georgia

Its gotten significantly smaller pretty fast it seems. I am intrigued to see how this plays out now. I haven't seen any flurries(what few there were) since my last post in midtown, quiet and calm at the moment.

If this over performs... people are going to be caught off guard. The freeway is packed right now.

 

[malak05]

If I am setting at 8 dew points under this and just aint getting to me... I aint getting snow today haha

 

[NCWeatherhound]

Report of spitting flurries in Southern Pines, NC. Getting the atmosphere primed.

 

[Philstorm91]

What was your forecast

3-5 inches. So right in the expected range. But areas to the south are busy overperforming.

No, whatever precip we get is going to be snow. The only problem is early accumulation may evaporate

Is that the huntsville radar?

 

[chapelhillwx]

RAP definitely getting more moisture up into ATL metro.

[NCWeatherhound]

Do you think more counties get added to this along US-1? Or is this where they think the best chance is to reach WSW criteria or above that could occur?

Just did. Everyone south of Harnett, Moore and Johnston is now under a WSW.

 

[cadmanager]

Come on baby. I’m pretty saturated over here. View attachment 166340

I'll l;et you know if and/or when it verifies here.

 

[Round Oak Weather]

Flurries just outside of Macon

Does RAP account for wet-bulb

 

[connorsclimate]

Why is the NWS still only projecting less than an inch for the triangle on tv rn? I feel like they should project 1-3…

 

[malak05]

Yes better image of actually banding for my area

 

[EastmanGAWX]

For those with an extensive history of weather, does this storm fit very well as an analog to the 1895 Valentine's Day Event? I think largely so, but with a better precipitation shield across Georgia/SC/Florida.

 

[Showmeyourtds]

Just clouds under this band. Saw mping for snow near Woodstock but have to question it seriously

 

[rburrel2]

Been tracking this storm obsessively for 10 days. It's one hour before it "starts" here. And I don't have the slightest freakin clue if it's going to actually snow here or not. This is maddening.

 

[Drizzle Snizzle]

We've had constant Flurries/Light Snow for about 30 minutes but not enough to stick yet.

Even if it's not snowing now, I'm watching the dry air collapse on the radar. The more of this we get the better. Moisture is surging N in west Alabama currently too so we're only getting started.

 

[CamWX]

Dewpoints for the Cherokee County Airport station haven't really moved too much since this morning. Gainesville is even lower. Unsure why Gainesville updates every 5-10 minutes, but Cherokee only updates every 20m.

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

Thing that's interesting here is that you keep seeing returns develop near me so far, but what I saw at lunch was the weakest passing flurries I'll probably ever see.

More interested in what's around Macon though shortly.

I was at Chipotle on 92 about half an hour ago and swear I saw a flake out the window but when I got to my car, nothing. I live 2 miles due east of DT Woodstock and nothing here either.

 

[UNCSC]

I am confused as to why this storm looks so steady heading northeast with a strong precip field to the northwest. Is this about to kick to a more eastward movement?

Absolutely!! I missed to the south last event.. if I miss to the north this time.. we talking 1 county!!! Each time!! I believe I will have a meltdown!!

Only saying 1 inch or less in CAE just north of I20. They refuse to acknowledge we may get more.

 

[rburrel2]

And.... right after I post if I don't know if it's going to snow or not here... it starts flurrying!!!! let's go!!!

 

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Looks like Atlanta is getting ready to go
Boom

 

[Parker]

Getting occasional flurries in McCalla south of Birmingham. Still think we get a window around here this afternoon.

 

[Catfish]

Snowing in Columbus, GA. No ground cover yet. And Cobb Co NW of ATL is apparently telling folks to plan to be off roads after 2:00 pm

 

[rusrius]

Snow has begun here, light, but heavier than earlier.

Your right parts of ATL/West Georgia aren't dead yet but your really gonna need to continue to have dew raise and moisture/QPF to really build back into AL and help that

 

[rburrel2]

I like what I'm seeing on Radar for Atlanta and points north and east. Looking like the globals(GFS/EURO) are right and the hrrr is way too dry.

The Donut Hole at the ATL radar site is quickly collapsing and even the wettest globals dont have snow breaking out in ATL until around 2pm.

They are usually slow on the gas with anything. I just don't see them being in the ballpark on this one.

 

[connorsclimate]

I’m calling it, here are my predictions!

Raleigh, NC, 1-3 inches (2 is completely doable)

Charlotte, NC, 1-2 inches (1 is more likely)

Wilmington, NC, 3-5 inches

Atlanta, GA, 1-2 inches

Central SC, 2-4 inches

 

[DopplerWx]

I chased to Hartsville, feeling like we may get under the heavier banding later, radar looks good!

You have to use the radar site closest to you….

Here is your situation…

It is snowing a couple of thousand feet above your head, but you are still very dry below the DGZ
