Text data from 12z GFS This is from Charlie Brown airport.
Friendly reminder.....Thats showing green because there isn't enough moisture in the snow growth region to actually snow. it comes down as some drizzle/light rain. yes it will freeze on contact with temps below freezing.

That happened here in Baton Rouge during the storm system on 1/17/18. Rain changing to snow by 4pm, but moisture got scoured out by 8pm. Result was it was just tiny ice pellets near the end.

Let’s hope Lucy is not giving false hope to Charlie Brown airport.
I think I'm gonna start saying, "oh look there is pony" every time one of those maps are posted.
Shouldn't it show it in pink then? I have never heard of this until now.
Some do and some don’t.
OK one more time. That isn't rain on the back side. In fact it isn't anything on the back side. That is an 6 hour QPF map with precip determined by the temp taken at the time the image was produced.
And
Oh look a pony.

Atlanta now in a WWA. Northern counties in a WSW
Just to quote this post again. That above is a QPF map, the one below is simulated radar and radar with precip type overlay.

A lot of areas look good to see 1-3 hrs of light/mod snow falling.
Definitely a huge win for a lot of areas! Enjoy it guys!

Euro is two to three inches here. If that happens I'll be pleasantly surprised.

You can see the system shaping up nicely now.
The front is easily visible and looks healthy. You can easily make out the energy down in the GOM that will enhance the band across Mississippi/Alabama.
It’s time to now cast guys! Radar is lighting up in a few hrs! Enjoy the ride and don’t let the frustration of “it could be more” ruin a nice little snow tomorrow!

Same, looking at the correct rain/snow map, it seems to give a nice 90 minutes of snow/slush.
It would have to be more than light/mod snow to accumulate 2-3" in a 2-3 hour time frame wouldnt it ?
