Pattern Marvelous March

So, I missed all the action. Am I still getting snow next week?

Well, Brick, some runs actually went as far south as 50 miles NW of SAV with measurable snow, something that on record never happened so late in the season that far south. Then the usual north trend took place in a big way so that even way up at DeeeeTeeee’s was too far south!

...SIGNIFICANT LARGE HAIL EVENT POSSIBLE MONDAY LATE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING...


.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Monday Night/...

Main concern in short term period is threat for strong/severe
convection Monday afternoon and early evening.

Latest guidance still indicate that strong to severe hail event
on tap for Monday late afternoon and evening. As mentioned
previously, steep lapse rates with MLCAPE approaching 1000 J/kg
and strong deep vertical wind shear all coming together, best
combination of shear and instability over westcentral GA and ATL

metro areas. Hail up to or even larger than 2 inches expected.

Can`t rule out some brief quasi-linear storms and multicells, but
expecting to see mostly cells and supercells with weak rotation.
A little concerned that 12Z HREF (high res ensemble forecast from
SPC) shows some decent updraft helicity potential in and near ATL
metro 21Z-00Z. Can`t rule out brief/weak tornado in spite of very

weak low level vertical wind shear. Storms should move out and/or
dissipate by 10PM.
 
Two wildfires today in Wilkes. It will be a common theme for the Carolinas soon. Going to be a bad wildfar season.
 
Got warned twice (north of downtown). First one died before it hit us and second one missed us to the north.

I was on track for that Collin County hailstorm earlier but it missed by about 5 miles

radar really lit up around the big airport now, maybe finally getting into more of the metro

Tornado Warning just popped up to my east

Just saw that out by Sulphur Springs. Rotation doesn't look great on radar but it could throw something down. NWS just threw down a big block for the whole central metroplex.

Oof, that thing is probably dropping some golf/baseball sized hail or accumulating hail
