We're getting to that time of day where if there's going to be any convective enhancement, it will commence soon.

Wintry King Kong Winter Storm Potential Feb 13th-16th

Still dropping down to 25. We’re definitely not getting to 32 today. We might not even get out of the 20s today which might increase the chances of seeing teens tonight if the winds/clouds aren’t as big of a factor tonight. Airport hasn’t budged past 28 for the past 3 hrs.

Doesn't matter how cold it is. If the sun comes out in Mid February, it will melt at -20.

Yeah, gone from 28 at 7am to 23 currently. Crazy how this cold has over performed. Now if we could just get the snow to cooperate...

We'll have to see if anything happens with this colder air aloft. Not sure how to tell if there's enough unstable air to stoke convective activity or not. But we can be damn sure its cold enough around 5000 ft off the ground.

I would say that, for my location, this storm under-performed on the front end, but has way over-performed on the back end.

Returns are starting to fizzle to our NW. So freaking predictable. ?

Birmingham has had light snow with temps in the teens for 8+ hours. Bet that hasn’t happened too many times before! Awesome event for y’all!

Extremely rare to see snow like this in Birmingham with temps in teens.

Hard to believe we are still have occasional nickel size snow flakes for this long. Still haven’t reached 20 degrees.

The sun will melt ice when the air temp is much colder than this... that is why the melt around the poles is more of a sun issue than a temp issue.

Finally up to 24 with light flurries falling. Some residual moisture from the snowpack to my north and west must be causing this low cloud deck to be preventing sunshine. At this rate my high will end up in the 20s for today.

Does Birmingham get any of the bands coming from the NW counties or are we pretty much done?

That's about what I would have had if it weren't for the warm nose. Had 1 inch QPF, all sleet

Really stoked for the bama folks. My wife didn’t understand why I was so excited last night about the much lighter but 13 degree snow after the big event earlier in the day. To get snow and sleet this week with temps so cold will be one I remember for a long time. It’s rare to get snow in the single digits here but it happened this morning!
edit: The flakes look different at much colder temps almost like stars.
