Wintry January 29th-30th ARCC Slam Dunk Winter Weather Threat

FFC bumped up hourly temperatures around metro ATL. Here in Forsyth, time to drop below freezing has moved from 11am to 6pm. Doesn’t get below 34 during precip.
 
Seeing a lot of mention of "back edge of precip" and "cold air moving in slower than forecast" across different offices such as Huntsville and Shreveport.

HSV basically said that the 00z NAM was the only reason they didn't make bigger changes earlier.
 
Yeah...not liking that update. Confused though b/c at my location, I though the current temps were pretty on par with the forecast temps at this time and that we would drop quickly once the colder air arrived (which was to be later). We were just removed over here from the WSW. Oh well, on to next winter.

Was always concerned that the colder air wouldn't be here fast enough though. We were really threading the needle on this one.
 
The dude who posted on spanns blog didn’t mention the fact that once heavier rates start in Bham the column cools rapidly. Just that “cold wasn’t catching up” curious update at this point given that there are still at least 2 or 3 hours of moderate precipitation to south and west- I’ve seen 850s crash and Lower temps in a matter of minutes.
