North GA is in better shape now than in 1986 after this last event, but we all still need a lot more rain. As for SC and NC the fact that the mountains got hit good helps some as far as river and lake levels go, but we really need rain to fall over all of both states and back in GA too.
That's about how 96 rolled best sleet event of my life
I didn’t zoom in but should have known where you are. We have fescue looking good even in the cold here. Just fertilized last week. Needs a blanket of snow!!
Can't hate this to be honest. Suppression isn't a concern but shearing of vorticity or over amping may be
Hard to imagine with as much energy as what we’re seeing, that we don’t at least see some convective snow showers for a lot of us on Thursday.
What ingredient will we be missing then I wonder.
Corn casserole.
My guess is that as soon as short range models get a handle on this system, there will be. Not necessarily crazy convection, but a few flurries and snow showers will certainly form at the minimum across much of the region where enough moisture and cloud cover exist.
That's the one. It's mine. I'm calling it.
That's a classic.
And the cold after that is very impressive. The day after this, highs in the NC Piedmont are 15-20 and lows that night 0-5. No one gets above freezing for about 84 hours
Man I wish… but this winter has had too many of these threats showing up close to 300 hours out and disappearing. Heck, this storm threat for the MLK timeframe is inside 200 hours and now it may or may not happen. Maybe we can work one of these with the more favorable pattern shift though…
Anomalously strong western ridge (record breaking in certain parts) and we still can’t pull a cutoff low or load a trough base into the SE
What sucks about this too is I feel like the kicker is just absorbing this thing and not allowing it to phase properly and the kicker isn’t even doing anything special
Well, 280 hours...... Not 300+ That's a little better.
