Depends on where the ridge sets up. The gefs have the better ridging centered far enough NW of us that we are fairly normal.

But yeah april is going to be pretty warm
What worries me is that we go thru even warmer and warmer phases as we get into April 4 > 5 > 6 and maybe 7, and flash drought
 
Interesting temp pattern in SC/SE GA with it being colder the further SW you go with coolest in SE GA:

I wonder how this system would have been if it was May, perhaps a Sub tropical storm ? @GaWx

Maybe, but I don’t know how comparable it even can be since this had essentially no tropical component with it being pretty much pure cold core with two contrasting air masses leading up to it. This was to me just a fairly rare very far SE tracking cold core low. Instead of comparing to what it would have been like in May, I was actually thinking about what it may have been like in Dec-early March, when it conceivably could have produced a very rare deep SE/coastal SE snowstorm as 850s were only a few degrees above 0C during a good portion of this storm.
