Wintry January 21-23 2025

Hopefully it’ll start here soon. Humidity jumped from 33 to 39 in the last 15-20 min…I must be missing something mpings all around me
 
Snow still coming down here although lightened up a bit in the Brookhaven/N Druid Hills area just a little NE of ATL proper. If you own a RWD car forget about it, you'll get stuck. Drove out for a bit to pick up some meds at the store and slipped out and nearly got stuck multiple times. 85 around here has slowed to a crawl. I don't have a ruler on me but just using my best judgement I'd say half an inch, maybe a hair more has fallen.
 
Just walked for 40 minutes. Think I saw about 40 dandruff flakes, lol. At least we got ours 11 days ago. The light snow earlier was a bonus.

Everyone enjoy the snow!

And I just saw I’m now under a Winter Storm Warning. OK … maybe we can finally get the column completely saturated and get a little bit?

Under a WSW here..
Lotsa virga ATM here in Surf City/Topsail..

currently 31F DP of 18
Wasn't @Stormsfury mentioning something about the Gulf Steam???

Interesting "changes" in KILM "update"..

Models have trended wetter and farther northwest today with an
area of low pressure off of the Carolina coast tonight. Snow
totals have increased significantly since this morning with
portions of coastal NC/SC now expecting close to 6 inches of
snow and sleet. The Winter Storm Warning has been expanded
across the entire forecast area with 1 to 3 inches of snow
expected near the I-95 corridor, 2 to 4 inches between I-95 and
the coast, 3 to 5 inches near the coast, and 2 to 4 along the
immediate coastline where some mixing may occur. Periodic
banding will produce a few areas with isolated higher amounts,
especially near the coast where mixing does not occur. High-end
totals around 6 or 7 inches, primarily in the Cape Fear region
and up to 5 inches just inland.
It is possible that this warm nose is muted by an isothermal
layer which will maintain mostly snow and only a brief period
of snow pellets or sleet. There is some confidence with this
prediction as 850 mb winds turn westerly by 02-04Z with a
secondary low developing along the Gulf Stream this evening.
Dry
and cold air advection within this layer should promote further
melting and an isothermal profile with mostly snow. Signs of
this are evident as the NAM and hi-res models produce a 0C 850
mb line as far east as the western edge of the Gulf Stream,
indicating deep cold air pushing offshore late tonight.

Yep. You can see it well on SPC mesoanalysis page. Natural tendencies for that Western Wall to be the battleground and best baroclinicity once you send an arctic airmass offshore
