Wintry More SE Snow ? (1/16-1/18)

[SoutheastRidge]

I got 1/8" in 30 min in the 15 dbz from 12pm to 12:30pm, so 1/4" per hour rates in the 15 dbz.

Current total here in Franklin county AL: 7/16" of snow

7/16" is very specific !

Unbelievable that places south of I20 are looking to score much better than north yet again. SMH!

What? Areas North and West of ATL ripped in December... 10-12 inches in some places and people south of I-20 saw 0 inches of snow. Be happy others are seeing a tiny bit of snow. SMH indeed.

Ground truth from 33/40 tracker shows that, even where snow has been falling all morning, there just isn't a lot of impact and barely even noticeable in the grassy areas.

Thats the key once the tilt starts she will slow down . Get under the band as it pivots and boom

The HRRR thinks that area could be around here or somewhere in GA. Have to hope for the best that we get a good pivot and then south of here including ATL gets it as well.

Wasn't talking about GA.

Not exactly true. Carrollton is south of I-20 and saw 8-10" !

Looks like the bands are drying up. No second band looks to be coming into Huntsville.

Feeling okay for the Western Midlands of SC. Once you get to Columbia and Southeast, temperature problems.

NWS CAE alludes to this, and we should be getting new advisories in the coming while.

they also have not had any good rates really to speak of.

Feel like most of the areas that he is driving through is in that drier area depicted by the models.

Interesting starting to see a lil lite green virgo moisture out in front of system in East AL

Sitting at 41 currently when that little band came through was IP/SN mix

My local forecast has my heavier snow hitting around 7 pm tonight. Light stuff before than

 

[Round Oak Weather]

Why do the local meteorologists keep on downplaying the system?

 

[weatherguy]

I've noticed since this is a dry powder type snow because it's in the 20s (which is more uncommon in the south), it is falling between the grass blades instead of sticking to and building on top of the grass like the more common wet snows we usually get.

 

[jgee322]

So is it looking like far northwest Georgia is going to get dry slotted?

That is actually not surprising. Light rates with low water content snow is probably allowing solar radiation to melt it and the wind to dry the road before it freezes.
