Maybe the cold air will make another push this morning. How many times have we seen it hang up, and even crawl in reverse, overnight, but pick back up as the morning progresses? I feel like that’s a common occurrence, even in non winter weather threat situations. If so, maybe you can bring the goods into the metro area. The line at Honda is already cranking, and my office is getting full....UGH!

This is what I have been afraid of...just hoping that track is bogus....but she has been as steady as a rock through all of this. If we torch that much....it will melt anything that was frozen!with the warm heavy rain. After that, it’s flash freezing that becomes the concern. Of course....IF the NAM is right.

I doubt it . The furnace will start cranking later this am as the low starts gaining strength and moving NE . Tuscaloosa is a much better spot . Short range models push the freezing line through early afternoon with some precip still around . Bham is cooked IMO . Might end as some freezing drizzle . Gonna need a big cold push this morning which would mean all the models bust cold . I just don’t see it

The track for sure is wrong it jumps from the gulf coast to Gadsden in an hour. Will be interesting to see how warm we really get .

haven't all the models been wrong all weekend on the temps? I haven't been above freezing since Friday probably.
 
Aliceville to Jasper to Cullman to Gurley is where the freezing line has set up across AL...with a few areas hovering around 32 spread out.
 
I'm not complaining at all, as I got about half an inch of sleet last night, but looking at the radar trends, I may avoid the worst.
It could fill in later tho. We shall see.

What I get for using DG batteries that lasted two months instead of Lithium that lasted two years.

But the question is what is sadder, the dead batteries or the lack of reason to change them?

We are almost exactly halfway between Jasper and Cullman, just South of the lake, and it is 30 with freezing rain right now and has been for a while.

Sometime while I was sleep, we lost power.

Not sure when it will come back on.

In Birmingham it was 36 when I left my house in Southern Jefferson County and in Eastlake my car is saying 33. Just another drop or two when the precipitation arrives we may be in luck!?!

3-4" seems to be the general rule around DFW.

The fact that most of it fell in 2 hours is the most impressive part.

Yeah it was insane but what really got me more than anything besides the snow was the cold temperatures and the wind I mean it is brutal
