Wintry Winter Storm Dec 7-10

2.5 inches in Sandy Springs, GA, just north of Atlanta. I can't remember a day where the temperature has budged as little as it has today. At 10:30 a.m. it was down to 34 where it has basically remained until now. That's 8+ hours of pretty much the exact same temperature.
 
I just hope for a dusting.
We should get a quick inch at least. It's just up the road now, and the band is still a few counties wide. These kind of storms are so anti climatic for us. Moving ever so slowly, and the cold air slow to move in to the caa over head. The cut off line is always a heart breaker for amounts, but we should get something. T
 
Hard to believe its been dumping snow all day here and 30 miles south of here nothing. Hoping that the folks south of here can get in on the fun too.

Still snowing in Woodstock Ga, last check on the deck had 6.5 inches and that’s with that e melting we had during the midaftenoon. The streets are
Covered again and we have been powerless since someone took out a power pole down the road.
 
Man, where I'm heading to tomorrow has been dry for a while and may just get a little from round 2 later tonight, too bad, they've stayed pretty cold though so perhaps the snow they did get doesn't melt too much before I get there.

And I know good and well that the NWS map (although preliminary) is wrong even before I get there. I've seen two pictures around LaFayette and Summerville and there's more than "1 inch of snow" at both places (Summerville is close to the higher totals though).
 
Big flakes are back after a period of very fine small flakes, closing in on 8” now
Edit that: we have reached the 8” mark lol

If i catch round 4 just right, i could get at least another 1"
 
I measured again, and we are more like at 4.5 inches. Several pines sagging, and trees limbs breaking. I’m now without power.
 
La Nina winter they said.... warmer and drier they said....lol I can just hear all the trollers after this... Sorry back to the topic...

Unfortunately looks like we might see a typical Nina like pattern soon but hopefully this good pattern can rebuild itself for at least one more ride in January.
 
Once again snow picking up in intensity/flake size increasing as well sitting at 7.2" on the hill

Also first time I can recall sustained 15 hours and counting with continuous snow falling...
 
I will likely merge this thread with the storm thread after the event, so ya'll can post in either one about what you're seeing/pictures.
 
Looks Like returns are drying out in Bama but looks like they are reforming near mobile crazy
 
Looks like precip trying to develop back into MS. TWC pointed it out just now.
