Wintry More SE Snow ? (1/16-1/18)

The guy seems quite knowledgeable, as I read some of his material during the storm that hit the Pee Dee and Coastal areas a couple weeks ago. He could be off, but rather interesting.......

The oval is probably not perfect so dont quite hold me to that but that general area I bet goes off. These disturbances are increasingly strong & will merge. Then it pulls east & drops intensity as shown in prior tweets through the evening.

I had requested this guy's site to be added to our Wiki. I think he is a disgruntled NWS employee, lol!

Either way, his stuff is solid, and I am willing to say as good as WXSouth for the SE.

Getting extra suppression in the north won't allow the upper level energy to gain latitude; instead shunting it east. That picks up the Louisiana disturbance and quickly turns it east through NC/SC. Thus the QPF maxima likely slips quite a bit south.

I'm sure some of our more astute posters can chime in.

I had actually forgot about him, until about a few minutes ago. I read some of his stuff during the storm a couple weeks ago and dude is pretty good at his craft.
 
After a couple of hours of moderate snow staying west of Ga. 400 here, it's finally worked its way to the east and to the western shore of Lake Lanier.

We're down to 26 degrees. Looking promising as I see the bands developed to our SW. Schools are closed and anything that falls from this point certainly will stick.

I wonder how many warm Winters we will have starting next year, since we've had such a cold winter this year

Nah we will be fine. This decade has actually been great for snowfall in some areas like up here. I remember a number of big storms that always seemed to miss me in the 2000s but the law of averages has taken care of our snow drought up here.North Carolina has been in a snow drought but Eventually they will get theirs too.

He has circled our area twice. The first time I kinda threw out and figured he meant the CLT area.. but hm. He thinks QPF maxima may be through here which would be around 0.3-0.4 here with slightly (just slightly 0.5) qpf to our North.

Interesting.
 
Getting some light-to-moderate snow here on the western shore of Lake Lanier with bigger flakes, the biggest flakes and the best rates we've had all night. Would think, from looking at the radar to the WSW of us, we will have similar conditions on and off through most of the night.

25 degrees. Anything falling at this point totally is going to stick.

Anything that beats the god-awful model snowhole up your way is a win.
 
FYI. The majority of my snow came on the backend of this snowstorm so anyone who’s still in the band might do good near the end. I only mention it because I thought someone else also said they did good near the end of it.
 
Oh geeze, ukmet is going ham for the entire carolina region. crankingwxguy might be onto something.ukmet_acc_precip_conus_48.png


This is that 0.3qpf + around central sc he may be alluding to with +.4 to .5 to right north.
